In quiet environments, the inner ears of vertebrates can produce low intensity sounds that are detectable in the ear canal, termed spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs).

The suppression of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) allows the objective evaluation of cochlear frequency selectivity by determining the suppression tuning curve (STC).

Effects of Adding Noise to Circuit Model and Numerical Model of Spontaneous Otoacoustic Emissions
Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions have long been modeled using self-excited, nonlinear oscillators. The van der Pol oscillator is a common choice, as many of its properties reflect those of SOAEs: both can begin oscillation in the absence of a direct ...

Low-frequency sound affects active micromechanics in the human inner ear [PDF]
Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most common auditory pathologies, resulting from overstimulation of the human cochlea, an exquisitely sensitive micromechanical device. At very low frequencies (less than 250 Hz), however, the sensitivity of human

Dynamics of spontaneous otoacoustic emissions [PDF]
Spontaneous otoacoustic emissions (SOAEs) have become a hallmark feature in modern theories of an ‘active’ inner ear, given their numerous correlations to auditory function (e.g., threshold microstructure, neurophysiological tuning curves), near universality across tetrapod classes, and physiological correlates at the single hair cell level.

Results: Frequency spectra are given for different sets of coupling parameters, both for nearest neighbour coupling of the oscillators, and for coupling to the papilla, and also after the introduction of irregularities in the damping of the oscillators ...

Something in Our Ears Is Oscillating, but What? A Modeller's View of Efforts to Model Spontaneous Emissions. [PDF]
When David Kemp discovered “spontaneous ear noise” in 1978, it opened up a whole new perspective on how the cochlea works. The continuous tonal sound emerging from most healthy human ears, now called spontaneous otoacoustic emissions or SOAEs, was an ...

Efferent modulation of stimulus frequency otoacoustic emission fine structure
Otoacoustic emissions, sounds generated in the inner ear, have become a convenient non-invasive tool to examine the efferent modulation of cochlear mechanics.

A tympanal insect ear exploits a critical oscillator for active amplification and tuning [PDF]
SummaryA dominant theme of acoustic communication is the partitioning of acoustic space into exclusive, species-specific niches to enable efficient information transfer.
