The fundamental perceptual unit in hearing is the'auditory object'. Similar to visual objects,
auditory objects are the computational result of the auditory system's capacity to detect …

Many sound sources emit signals in a predictable manner. The idea that predictability can
be exploited to support the segregation of one source's signal emissions from the …

The book you are about to read is about research that asks questions like" How do our
senses operate?"" What is the connection between nervous system activity and perception?" …

Publisher Summary This chapter explores the grouping mechanisms in music. Music
provides a complexity, rapidly changing acoustic spectrum, often derived from the …

Auditory perception and cognition entails both low-level and high-level processes, which are
likely to interact with each other to create our rich conscious experience of soundscapes …

Objective The aim of this narrative review is to explore the relationship between visual snow
syndrome (VSS), migraine, and a group of other perceptual disorders. Background VSS is …

Auditory figure–ground segregation, listeners' ability to selectively hear out a sound of
interest from a background of competing sounds, is a fundamental aspect of scene analysis …

'Auditory scenes' often contain contributions from multiple acoustic sources. These are
usually heard as separate auditory 'streams', which can be selectively followed over time …

Our ability to make sense of the auditory world results from neural processing that begins in
the ear, goes through multiple subcortical areas, and continues in the cortex. The specific …

The idea that predictive modelling and extraction of regularities plays a pivotal role in
auditory segregation has recently attracted considerable attention. The present study …
