Fig. 41.1 Cortical reconstruction of each of two competing speech streams. (a) The correlation between neural reconstruction and the actual envelope of each speaker (filled and hollow symbols for attended…

Fig. 37.1 Spectro-temporal receptive fields estimated from recordings of six example units, numbered 1-6 (a) and 2-dimensional Gabor functions (b) used to extract relevant information from time-frequency representations of speech…

Fig. 35.1 Echo-acoustic sensitivity to target range. Colour bars represent performances of individual subjects To solve this task, subjects produced relatively short vocalisations (tongue clicks) with durations between 3 and…

Fig. 33.1 The top panel shows N 0 S 0 (circles) and N 0 S π (squares) thresholds as a function of the frequency separation between target and noise masker…

Fig. 15.1 Schematic spectrograms of the stimuli used for the symmetric condition (top) and asymmetric condition (bottom). See text for details A major motivation for this study was to provide…

Fig. 34.1 Top-view schematic examples of the potential spatial percepts of an acoustic scene with a point source presented in front of the listener. Panel a shows a punctate percept…
