New Approaches to Studying Auditory Processing in Marine Mammals

Abstract

The goals of the proposed effort are to enhance our understanding of the manner in which marine mammals process and respond to complex, real-world sounds by developing new experimental approaches to studying marine mammal auditory perception. The results of this study would provide new methodologies to enable the study of more complex features of auditory perception such as subjective stimulus similarity/dissimilarity and auditory template matching.
