Visual task enhances spatial selectivity in the human auditory cortex

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2013
The auditory cortex represents spatial locations differently from other sensory modalities. While visual and tactile cortices utilize topographical space maps, for audition no such cortical map has been found. Instead, auditory cortical neurons have wide

Importance of spike timing in touch: an analogy with hearing? [PDF]

, 2016
Touch is often conceived as a spatial sense akin to vision. However, touch also involves the transduction and processing of signals that vary rapidly over time, inviting comparisons with hearing.

Speech recognition in noise with active and passive hearing protectors: a comparative study [PDF]

, 2011
The perceived negative influence of standard hearing protectors on communication is a common argument for not wearing them. Thus, augmented protectors have been developed to improve speech intelligibility.

Spatial Hearing

, 1996
The field of spatial hearing has exploded in the decade or so since Jens Blauert's classic work on acoustics was first published in English. This revised edition adds a new chapter that describes developments in such areas as auditory virtual reality (an important field of application that is based mainly on the physics of spatial hearing), binaural ...

The moving minimum audible angle is smaller during self motion than during source motion.

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
We are rarely perfectly still: our heads rotate in three axes and move in three dimensions, constantly varying the spectral and binaural cues at the ear drums.

Heschl's gyrus is more sensitive to tone level than non-primary auditory cortex [PDF]

, 2002
Previous neuroimaging studies generally demonstrate a growth in the cortical response with an increase in sound level. However, the details of the shape and topographic location of such growth remain largely unknown.

VISUAL-SPATIAL PERCEPTION AND VISUAL-MOTOR COORDINATION IN STUDENTS WITH HEARING IMPAIRMENTS

Research in Education and Rehabilitation
This paper defines the concepts of visual-spatial perception, visual-motor coordination, and hearing impairment. The aim of the study was to examine the characteristics of visual-spatial perception and visual-motor coordination in students with hearing ...

Computational modelling of head-related transfer function

Archives of Acoustics, 2014
Measuring the Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) is an efficient method that takes into consideration the influence of the human body on the sound spectrum. The data base used in reproduction of the sound source position is built using the measurement

Assessing the Role of Vocal Plasticity in Sociospatial Coordination

Animals
Studies of vocal communication often focus on the messages that calls and songs convey related to reproductive activities, foraging, predator avoidance, social bonding, individual recognition, and conflict resolution.
