Neural Fluctuation Contrast as a Code for Complex Sounds: The Role and Control of Peripheral Nonlinearities
LH Carney - Hearing Research, 2024 - Elsevier
The nonlinearities of the inner ear are often considered to be obstacles that the central
nervous system has to overcome to decode neural responses to sounds. This review …

A computational model of auditory chirp-velocity sensitivity and amplitude-modulation tuning in inferior colliculus neurons
PW Mitchell, LH Carney - Journal of Computational Neuroscience, 2024 - Springer
We demonstrate a model of chirp-velocity sensitivity in the inferior colliculus (IC) that retains
the tuning to amplitude modulation (AM) that was established in earlier models. The …

Normal behavioral discrimination of envelope statistics in budgerigars with kainate-induced cochlear synaptopathy
Cochlear synaptopathy is a common pathology in humans associated with aging and
potentially sound overexposure. Synaptopathy is widely expected to cause “hidden hearing …

Sensitivity to direction and velocity of fast frequency chirps in the inferior colliculus of awake rabbit
Neurons in the mammalian inferior colliculus (IC) are sensitive to the velocity (speed and
direction) of fast frequency chirps contained in Schroeder-phase harmonic complexes …
