Abstract: OBJECTIVE To objectively measure speech intelligibility of individual subjects from the EEG, based on cortical tracking of different representations of speech: low-level acoustical, higher-level discrete, or a combination. To compare each model's prediction of the… read more here.

Abstract: Humans are remarkably adept in listening to a desired speaker in a crowded environment, while filtering out nontarget speakers in the background. Attention is key to solving this difficult cocktail-party task, yet a detailed characterization… read more here.

Abstract: To learn language, children must map variable input to categories such as phones and words. How do children process variation and distinguish between variable pronunciations ("shoup" for soup) versus new words? The unique sensory experience… read more here.
