Abstract Models of the human auditory periphery range from very basic functional
descriptions of auditory filtering to detailed computational models of cochlear mechanics …

Little is known about how outer hair cell loss interacts with noise-induced and age-related
auditory nerve degradation (ie, cochlear synaptopathy) to affect auditory brainstem response …

The Auditory Modeling Toolbox (AMT) is a MATLAB/Octave toolbox for the development and
application of computational auditory models with a particular focus on binaural hearing …

Evidence from animal and human studies suggests that moderate acoustic exposure,
causing only transient threshold elevation, can nonetheless cause “hidden hearing loss” that …

Studies in multiple species, including in post-mortem human tissue, have shown that normal
aging and/or acoustic overexposure can lead to a significant loss of afferent synapses …

A number of auditory models have been developed using diverging approaches, either
physiological or perceptual, but they share comparable stages of signal processing, as they …

Hearing loss is a significant problem that affects at least 15% of the population. This
percentage, however, is likely significantly higher because of a variety of auditory disorders …

Auditory models are commonly used as feature extractors for automatic speech-recognition
systems or as front-ends for robotics, machine-hearing and hearing-aid applications …

Auditory de-afferentation, a permanent reduction in the number of inner-hair-cells and
auditory-nerve synapses due to cochlear damage or synaptopathy, can reliably be …

Aging listeners often experience difficulties in perceiving temporally complex acoustic cues
in noisy environments. These difficulties likely have neurophysiological contributors from …
