Spatial Unmasking Effect on Speech Reception Threshold in the Median Plane

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
This study examined whether the spatial unmasking effect operates on speech reception thresholds (SRTs) in the median plane. SRTs were measured using an adaptive staircase procedure, with target speech sentences and speech-shaped noise maskers presented ...

Bi-Smoothed Functional Independent Component Analysis for EEG Artifact Removal

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
Motivated by mapping adverse artifactual events caused by body movements in electroencephalographic (EEG) signals, we present a functional independent component analysis based on the spectral decomposition of the kurtosis operator of a smoothed principal

The Reduction of Vertical Interchannel Crosstalk: The Analysis of Localisation Thresholds for Natural Sound Sources

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
In subjective listening tests, natural sound sources were presented to subjects as vertically-oriented phantom images from two layers of loudspeakers, ‘height’ and ‘main’.

Virtually spatialized sounds enhance auditory processing in healthy participants and patients with a disorder of consciousness

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Neuroscientific and clinical studies on auditory perception often use headphones to limit sound interference. In these conditions, sounds are perceived as internalized because they lack the sound-attributes that normally occur with a sound produced from ...

A Comparison between Horizontal and Vertical Interchannel Decorrelation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
The perceptual effects of interchannel decorrelation on perceived image spread have been investigated subjectively in both horizontal and vertical stereophonic reproductions, looking specifically at the frequency dependency of decorrelation. Fourteen and

Mapping the Soundscape in Communicative Forms for Cultural Heritage: Between Realism and Symbolism

open access: yesHeritage, 2021
The dimension of sound plays a central role as a form of cultural representation. Sound is a means of knowledge and experiential involvement, as it is inextricably linked to place and space, mind and body, cultural context and emotion.

Absence of Rhythm Benefit on Speech in Noise Recognition in Children Diagnosed With Auditory Processing Disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Auditory processing disorder (APD) is a specific deficit in the processing of auditory information along the central auditory nervous system. It is characterized mainly by deficits in speech in noise recognition.

A psychoacoustic test for misophonia assessment [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
AbstractMisophonia is a condition where a strong arousal response is triggered when hearing specific human generated sounds, like chewing, and/or repetitive tapping noises, like pen clicking. It is diagnosed with clinical interviews and questionnaires since no psychoacoustic tools exist to assess its presence.

Spoken Word Recognition Enhancement Due to Preceding Synchronized Beats Compared to Unsynchronized or Unrhythmic Beats

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
The relation between rhythm and language has been investigated over the last decades, with evidence that these share overlapping perceptual mechanisms emerging from several different strands of research.

Auditory Perception of Impulsiveness and Tonality in Vocal Fry

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Vocal fry is a voice quality that occurs in a healthy voice, but it can also be a sign of a voice disorder. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the parameters of voice production, a dedicated psychoacoustic feature, and the perceptual
