[HTML][HTML] Great expectations: is there evidence for predictive coding in auditory cortex?

M Heilbron, M Chait - Neuroscience, 2018 - Elsevier
Predictive coding is possibly one of the most influential, comprehensive, and controversial
theories of neural function. While proponents praise its explanatory potential, critics object …

Neural processing of natural sounds

FE Theunissen, JE Elie - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2014 - nature.com
We might be forced to listen to a high-frequency tone at our audiologist's office or we might
enjoy falling asleep with a white-noise machine, but the sounds that really matter to us are …

The modulation transfer function for speech intelligibility
