Basilar membrane nonlinearity and loudness.
Loudness matching functions for tones for persons with one shifted-threshold ear (hearing loss and noise-shifted thresholds) and one ear within normal limits were used to derive the presumed basilar membrane (BM) input-output (I/O) function in a normal ear. The comparison was made by assuming that the BM I/O function for the ear with the cochlear threshold shift has a slope of one (a linearized...
متن کاملAural Exciter and Loudness Maximizer: What’s Psychoacoustic about "psychoacoustic Processors" ?
In this study two so-called "psychoacoustic processors" are examined exemplarily by applying concepts, models and methods of scientific psychoacoustics. Physical measurements of processed sounds and results of hearing experiments on speech intelligibility and sound quality (Aural Exciter) and loudness (Loudness Maximizer) are presented and discussed with regard to classic psychoacoustic models ...
متن کاملOn the nature of two-tone aural nonlinearity.
The present manuscript begins with a review of the literature on two-tone nonlinearity and proceeds to the description of an ad hoc model of auditory nonlinearity which can account for several of the features of the psychophysical data on various two-tone nonlinearities, in particular, (f2-f1), (2f1-f2), and two-tone suppression. The two basic components of the model are (1) a nonlinearity whic...
متن کاملLoudness and Loudness Discrimination Revisited
We present evidence that the psychophysical function relating loudness to sound pressure is governed by a nonlinear gain control system, one of whose functions is to protect the sensory system from overload. Specifically, the loudness function is altered nonlinearly when loud sounds are added in an identification task previously containing only soft sounds but not vice
متن کاملTemporal integration of loudness, loudness discrimination, and the form of the loudness function.
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. The procedure for loudness balances was new and employed ten interleaved tracks to obtain concurrent ...
