Description:

This demonstration computes responses to a click of single polarity at various stages of the auditory system. The following data are shown:

• Characteristic frequencies of equidistant points along the cochlea.
• Ear-canal pressure signals that can be used to simulate otoacoustic emissions (see also demo_verhulst2012).
• Simulated basilar membrane velocity (\(v_{bm}\) returned as v) and inner-hair-cell voltage (\(V_{ihc}\) returned as vihc).
• Simulated unit responses of HSR, MSR, LSR neurons, the auditory nerve, cochlear nucleus, and inferior colliculus.
• Population responses as the wave I, III, and V, as well as the envelope following response (EFR).

The current demo is based on the scripts ExampleSimulation.m and ExampleAnalysis_function.m from https://github.com/HearingTechnology/Verhulstetal2018Model

Characteristic frequencies of equidistant points along the cochlea.

Ear-canal pressure signals that can be used to simulate otoacoustic emissions.

Modeled basilar-membrane velocity (\(v_{bm}\), top row) and the inner-hair-cell voltage (\(V_{ihc}\), bottom row).

Modeled responses of the HSR, MSR, and LSR neurons (left column) as well as the auditory nerve (AN), cochlear nucleus (CN), and inferior colliculus (IC, right column).

Modeled population responses: Waves I, III, and V, as well as the envelope following response (EFR).
