Is it all in your head? An investigation of predictions in pitch processing Ghent University
perceiving pitch (i.e., tone frequency) is an essential prerequisite for more complex auditory processes, such as perceiving music and speech. As such, frequency selectivity (that is, the ability to discriminate differences in pitch) is important as it aids hearing in noise. Despite the importance of frequency selectivity, the underlying neural mechanisms are not very well understood. One issue that needs to be addressed is how pitch is ...
