We tested a range of DNN architectures on data from primary and non-primary auditory cortex, varying number and size of convolutional layers at the input and dense layers at the output. DNNs performed ...

For decades, scientists have thought that speech processing in the auditory cortex followed a serial pathway, similar to an assembly line in a factory. It was thought that first, the primary ...

including the primary auditory cortex. However, no one has tackled whether vision and touch together are processed differently in deaf people, primarily because in experimental settings ...

Researchers have shown that the brain’s primary auditory cortex is more responsive to human vocalizations associated with positive emotions and coming from our left side than to any other kind ...

“It is currently unknown when the preference of the primary auditory cortex for positive human vocalizations from the left appears during human development, and whether this is a uniquely human ...

is actually located in the front of the primary auditory cortex, not in back of it -- a finding that upends a century-long understanding of this area of the brain. The new understanding matters ...

The brain scans showed that, in deaf subjects, the auditory cortex was activated when looking at rhythmic patterns of flashing lights (as were parts of the visual processing system). By contrast ...
