Modeling auditory processing of amplitude modulation. I. Detection and masking with narrow-band carriers.
This paper presents a quantitative model for describing data from modulation-detection and modulation-masking experiments, which extends the model of the "effective" signal processing of the auditory system described in Dau et al. [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 99, 3615-3622 (1996)]. The new element in the present model is a modulation filterbank, which exhibits two domains with different scaling. In the...
متن کاملThe effect of temporal asymmetry on amplitude modulation detection using pure-tone carriers (L).
The effect of temporal asymmetry on amplitude modulation detection was studied using sawtooth modulators with rising (ramped) or falling (damped) temporal envelopes within each period of modulation. For pure-tone carriers, damped modulation was more detectable than ramped modulation for a 5-kHz carrier (by a threshold difference of 3.2 dB on average) but not for a 1-kHz carrier. The threshold d...
متن کاملCues for masked amplitude-modulation detection.
The ability of psychoacoustic models to predict listeners' performance depends on two key stages: preprocessing and the generation of a decision variable. The goal of the current study was to determine the perceptually relevant decision variables in masked amplitude-modulation detection tasks in which the modulation depth of the masker was systematically varied. Potential cues were made unrelia...
متن کاملDetection of combined frequency and amplitude modulation.
This article is concerned with the detection of mixed modulation (MM), i.e., simultaneously occurring amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM). In experiment 1, an adaptive two-alternative forced-choice task was used to determine thresholds for detecting AM alone. Then, thresholds for detecting FM were determined for stimuli which had a fixed amount of AM in the signal interval o...
متن کاملAmplitude modulation detection by listeners with unilateral dead regions.
BACKGROUND A dead region is a region in the cochlea where the inner hair cells and/or neurons are functioning very poorly, if at all. We have shown that, for people with sensorineural hearing loss, thresholds for detecting sinusoidal amplitude modulation (AM) of a sinusoidal carrier were lower for ears with high-frequency dead regions, as diagnosed using the threshold-equalizing noise test, cal...
