The ability to predict when something will happen facilitates sensory processing and the
ensuing computations. Building on the observation that neural activity entrains to periodic …

Temporal orienting improves sensory processing, akin to other top–down biases. However,
it is unknown whether these improvements reflect increased neural gain to any stimuli …

Highlights•Mechanistic modeling explored for feature encoding, source separation and
perception.•Progress arises through an interplay between experimentalists and …

Brain oscillations are produced by the coordinated activity of large groups of neurons and
different rhythms are thought to reflect different modes of information processing. These …

Abstract Information processing under conditions of uncertainty requires the involvement of
cognitive control. Despite behavioral evidence of the supramodal function (ie, independent …

The ability to detect regularities in sound (ie, recurring structure) is critical for effective
perception, enabling, for example, change detection and prediction. Two seemingly …

Rhythm perception refers to the mental interpretation of rhythm by a listener. Musical rhythm
perception typically involves two steps: beat extraction and metrical structure assignment …

When listening to music, humans spontaneously perceive and synchronize movement to
periodic pulses of meter. A growing body of evidence suggests that this widespread ability is …

The present study investigates the event-related oscillations underlying the motion-onset
response (MOR) evoked by sounds moving at different velocities. EEG was recorded for …

Some theories of auditory categorization suggest that auditory dimensions that are strongly
diagnostic for particular categories-for instance voice onset time or fundamental frequency in …
