Wiener-kernel methods can reveal central gain changes in brainstem after peripheral damage

Evidence

AM thresholds to pure-tone carriers (4 kHz) in normal-hearing listeners depended on temporal coding fidelity. AM thresholds in hearing-impaired listeners were normal, indicating that reduced cochlear gain may counteract how reduced temporal coding fidelity degrades AM thresholds. — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 5870 (#expands, via linked claim)
