Definition

The process of extracting acoustic features from sound waves and partitioning them into meaningful groups

Detailed Description

Introduction

Traveling pressure waves (i.e., sounds) are produced by the movements or actions of objects. So sounds primarily convey information about what is happening in the environment. In addition, some information about the structure of the environment and the surface features of objects can be extracted by determining how the original (self-generated or exogenous) sounds are filtered or distorted by the environment (e.g., the notion of “acoustic daylight,” Fay 2009). In this entry we consider how the auditory systems process sound signals to extract information about the environment and the objects within it.

The auditory system faces a number of specific challenges which need to be considered in any account of perceptual...
