An Empirical Analysis on the Vulnerabilities of End-to-End Speech Segregation Models
End-to-end learning models have demonstrated a remarkable capability in performing
speech segregation. Despite their wide-scope of real-world applications, little is known …

Prediction in polyphony: modelling musical auditory scene analysis
SA Sauvé - 2018 - qmro.qmul.ac.uk
How do we know that a melody is a melody? In other words, how does the human brain
extract melody from a polyphonic musical context? This thesis begins with a theoretical …

A physiologically inspired model for solving the cocktail party problem
At a cocktail party, we can broadly monitor the entire acoustic scene to detect important cues
(eg, our names being called, or the fire alarm going off), or selectively listen to a target sound …

A biologically oriented algorithm for spatial sound segregation
Listening in an acoustically cluttered scene remains a difficult task for both machines and
hearing-impaired listeners. Normal-hearing listeners accomplish this task with relative ease …

Slow and steady: auditory features for discriminating animal vocalizations
RW Di Tullio, L Wei, V Balasubramanian - bioRxiv, 2024 - biorxiv.org
We propose that listeners can use temporal regularities–spectro-temporal correlations that
change smoothly over time–to discriminate animal vocalizations within and between …

Sensitivity of neural responses in the inferior colliculus to statistical features of sound textures
Previous psychophysical studies have identified a hierarchy of time-averaged statistics
which determine the identity of natural sound textures. However, it is unclear whether the …
