TLDR
The book is written so that those entering auditory research from very little background in auditory neuroscience are able to understand the current research issues and research literature and is an excellent reading companion to practitioners and scholars.Abstract:
The Physics and Analysis of Sound The Outer and Middle Ears The Cochlea The Auditory Nerve Mechanisms of Transduction and Excitation in the Cochlea The Brainstem Nuclei The Auditory Cortex The Centrifugal Pathways Physiological Correlates of Auditory Psychophysics and Performance Sensorineural Hearing Loss References Subject Indexread more

Derivation of auditory filter shapes from notched-noise data
TL;DR: Modifications to the fitting procedure are described which allow more accurate derivations of filter shapes derived from data where the notch is always placed symmetrically about the signal frequency and when the underlying filter is markedly asymmetric.

TL;DR: Hearing loss is independently associated with accelerated cognitive decline and incident cognitive impairment in community-dwelling older adults and the mechanistic basis of this association is and whether hearing rehabilitative interventions could affect cognitive decline is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hearing Loss and Incident Dementia
TL;DR: Hearing loss is independently associated with incident all-cause dementia, and whether hearing loss is a marker for early-stage dementia or is actually a modifiable risk factor for dementia deserves further study.

TL;DR: The NIH-TB Cognition Battery is intended to serve as a brief, convenient set of measures to supplement other outcome measures in epidemiologic and longitudinal research and clinical trials and will provide a “common currency” among researchers for comparisons across a wide range of studies and populations.

Social Signal Processing
TL;DR: It is argued that next-generation computing needs to include the essence of social intelligence - the ability to recognize human social signals and social behaviours like turn taking, politeness, and disagreement - in order to become more effective and more efficient.
