Behavioral and neural correlates of intensity discrimination of masked tonal signals

Hyojin Kim1, Viktorija Ratkute1, Bastian Epp11Hearing Systems section, Department of Health Technology, Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark Comodulated masking noise and interaural phase disparity (IPD) can enhance detection of masked signals. Such enhancement in detection performance, or masking release, can be quantified as decreased detection thresholds: comodulation masking release (CMR) and binaural masking level …
