Related

  • The auditory cortex decodes speech from acoustically jumbled waveforms. (similarity 0.82)
  • Sounds can mask both slightly earlier and later probe sounds (similarity 0.81)
  • Microphones and loudspeakers are not truly reciprocal transducers (similarity 0.80)
  • Wavelets from different cochlear regions can nearly cancel each other out (similarity 0.80)
  • Audio coding aims to reconstruct signals while other processing modifies them (similarity 0.80)
  • The audiogram only measures sound detection, omitting everything else about auditory perception. (similarity 0.79)
  • Sound’s constant speed across wavelengths is what preserves speech intelligibility (similarity 0.79)
  • Speech comprehension depends on direct sound, which falls off with the inverse square law. (similarity 0.79)
  • A 1 dB detection gain can shift speech identification by 15 to 20 points (similarity 0.79)
  • The specific hearing-aid prescriptive fitting rule barely affects speech intelligibility (similarity 0.79)
  • The auditory spectrum differs from the physical power spectrum in resolution and shape (similarity 0.78)
  • Hearing thresholds vary individually but share a common perceptual order (similarity 0.78)
  • High ambient noise forces listeners to raise volume toward hearing-loss levels (similarity 0.78)
  • The audiogram normalizes hearing data so deviations from typical are visually obvious (similarity 0.78)
