This article provides a review of recent developments in our understanding of how cochlear
nonlinearity affects sound perception and how a loss of the nonlinearity associated with …

Many people with difficulties following conversations in noisy settings have “clinically
normal” audiograms, that is, tone thresholds better than 20 dB HL from 0.1 to 8 kHz. This …

Standing waves can cause errors during in-the-ear calibration of sound pressure level
(SPL), affecting both stimulus magnitude and distortion-product otoacoustic emission …

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 …

Recently, Boege and Janssen [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 111, 1810–1818 (2002)] fit linear
equations to distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) input/output (I/O) functions …

Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs) provide an acoustic fingerprint of the inner ear, and changes
in this fingerprint may indicate changes in cochlear function arising from efferent modulation …

INTRODUCTION: Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAEs) are known to
represent the contractile amplifier function of cochlear outer hair cells. It is known that low or …

Objectives: Distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) have become part of routine
audiological diagnostics. The large scale of clinical DPOAE applications, such as screening …

A model of the cochlea was used to bridge the gap between model approaches commonly
used to investigate phenomena related to otoacoustic emissions and more filter-based …

The combined influence of primary-level differences (L 1‐L 2) and primary-frequency ratio (f
2∕ f 1) on distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) level was investigated in 20 …
