… Here, we suggest that one of the reasons for speech being special is that our auditory system
has evolved to encode it in an efficient, optimal way. The theory of efficient neural coding …

… However, neural encoding of sound location is a complex process … on neural sound location
encoding, the emergence of a cue-independent location representation in the auditory cortex…

… sequential grouping in auditory scene analysis (auditory pattern detection and bistable
perception), as we believe that this is the research topic where predictive coding has the highest …

… Finally, we examine whether there is a specificity of the neural code in the auditory system.
Sensory systems differ in the particular properties of the physical signals that they encode. …

… Our findings indicate that neural encoding of vowels in PAC is not veridical but is shaped
by linguistically relevant categories. Further research is warranted to determine whether this …

… , voices, music into neural codes for sound content analyses. The neural codes are then
transmitted through the auditory system comprised of the central auditory pathway—connected …

… Moreover, our findings support previous studies which showed the auditory cortex as the
390 primary neural core for processing auditory information 36,37. Interestingly, although the …

Co-occurring sounds can facilitate perception of spatially and temporally correspondent
visual events. Separate lines of research have identified two putatively distinct neural …

… a sparse and parts-based encoding of odor identity and concentration. Only recently have
NSC-based methods been employed to elucidate the neural code for olfaction. Future studies …

… In this review article I will first remind the reader of the canonical knowledge of the
auditory brainstem function and circuitry (Sections 1.1–1.3) before recent studies on the time-coding …
