A SMARC Effect for Loudness [PDF]
i-Perception, 2017 Various reports suggest that the pitch height of musical tones may be represented along a mental space, with lower pitch heights represented on the left or lower sectors and higher pitch heights represented on the right or upper sectors of the mental ...

A Loudness Model for Time-Varying Sounds Incorporating Binaural Inhibition
Trends in Hearing, 2016 This article describes a model of loudness for time-varying sounds that incorporates the concept of binaural inhibition, namely, that the signal applied to one ear can reduce the internal response to a signal at the other ear.

Musical expertise and the ability to imagine loudness. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Most perceived parameters of sound (e.g. pitch, duration, timbre) can also be imagined in the absence of sound. These parameters are imagined more veridically by expert musicians than non-experts.

Development and Current Status of the “Cambridge” Loudness Models
Trends in Hearing, 2014 This article reviews the evolution of a series of models of loudness developed in Cambridge, UK. The first model, applicable to stationary sounds, was based on modifications of the model developed by Zwicker, including the introduction of a filter to ...

Loudness and loudness discrimination [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1980 A model is developed which holds that pure-tone intensity discrimination and suprathreshold loudness judgments are based on the same sensory representation. In this model, loudness is a power function of sound intensity. When two tones are presented sequentially, each gives rise to a loudness value along the sensory continuum.

Diagnosis of Pneumonia by Cough Sounds Analyzed with Statistical Features and AI
Sensors, 2021 Pneumonia is a serious disease often accompanied by complications, sometimes leading to death. Unfortunately, diagnosis of pneumonia is frequently delayed until physical and radiologic examinations are performed.

Temporal integration of loudness, loudness discrimination, and the form of the loudness function [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997 Temporal integration for loudness of 5-kHz tones was measured as a function of level between 2 and 60 dB SL. Absolute thresholds and levels required to produce equal loudness were measured for 2-, 10-, 50-, and 250-ms tones using adaptive, two-interval, two-alternative forced-choice procedures.

Uni- and bilateral spectral loudness summation and binaural loudness summation with loudness matching and categorical loudness scaling [PDF]
International Journal of Audiology, 2020 Current hearing aid prescription rules assume that spectral loudness summation decreases with hearing impairment and that binaural loudness summation is independent of hearing loss and signal bandwidth. Previous studies have shown that these assumptions might be incorrect.

Vibration, 2022 Silent speech interfaces (SSIs) enable speech recognition and synthesis in the absence of an acoustic signal. Yet, the archetypal SSI fails to convey the expressive attributes of prosody such as pitch and loudness, leading to lexical ambiguities. The aim

Effects of expectations on loudness and loudness difference [PDF]
Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2012 To determine how expectations affect loudness and loudness difference, in two experiments we induced some subjects to expect loud sounds (condition L), some to expect soft sounds (condition S), and others to have no particular expectations (control). In Experiment 1, all subjects estimated the loudnesses of the same set of three moderately loud 1-kHz ...
