HST.716J / 6.552J Signal Processing by the Auditory System: Perception
Studies behavioral aspects of human hearing in relation to current physiological knowledge. Examines performance in processing information from acoustic stimuli. Correlations between behavior and physiology, reflecting the tono-topic organization and stochastic responses of the auditory system. Mathematical models of psychophysical relations, incorporating quantitative knowledge of physiological transformations by the peripheral auditory system. Discusses related research on diagnosis and aids for the partially deaf. Alternate years.
