Audiology Research, 2022 Stationary visual targets often become far more salient when they move against an otherwise static background–the so-called “pop out” effect. In two experiments conducted over loudspeakers, we tested for a similar pop-out effect in the auditory domain ...

Effects of Visually Induced Self-Motion on Sound Localization Accuracy
Applied Sciences, 2021 The deterioration of sound localization accuracy during a listener’s head/body rotation is independent of the listener’s rotation velocity. However, whether this deterioration occurs only during physical movement in a real environment remains unclear. In

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Background: Previous studies have demonstrated spatial cognitive deficits in patients with bilateral vestibulopathy (BVP). However, BVP patients frequently present with a concomitant sensorineural hearing loss, which is a well-established risk factor of ...

Cerebral Representation of Sound Localization Using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Sound localization is an essential part of auditory processing. However, the cortical representation of identifying the direction of sound sources presented in the sound field using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is currently unknown ...

Spatial Hearing and Hearing Aids [PDF]
, 2016 The questions of whether hearing-impaired listeners are also impaired for the localization of sounds and what benefits hearing aids can provide are important for understanding the wider effects of hearing impairment. We review here 29 studies published since 1983 that have measured acuity for changes in the horizontal-plane direction of sound sources ...

Spatially selective binaural hearing aids [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing and Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computers - UbiComp '15, 2015 Traditional hearing aids are limited by the absence of spatial selectivity. Superdirective microphone array can recover such limit, performing a spatial filtering to achieve an augmented SNR. We present Glassense, a platform hosting a double microphone array connected to a processing unit and mounted on the frame of common glasses. The platform has the

Peripheral hearing loss reduces the ability of children to direct selective attention during multi-talker listening [PDF]
, 2017 Restoring normal hearing requires knowledge of how peripheral and central auditory processes are affected by hearing loss. Previous research has focussed primarily on peripheral changes following sensorineural hearing loss, whereas consequences for ...

Cortical transformation of spatial processing for solving the cocktail party problem: a computational model(1,2,3). [PDF]
, 2016 In multisource, "cocktail party" sound environments, human and animal auditory systems can use spatial cues to effectively separate and follow one source of sound over competing sources.

Speech understanding in diffuse steady noise in typically hearing and hard of hearing listeners
PLoS ONE, 2022 Spatial cues can facilitate segregation of target speech from maskers. However, in clinical practice, masked speech understanding is most often evaluated using co-located speech and maskers (i.e., without spatial cues). Many hearing aid centers in France
