Temporal processing

Animal models in the past decade have shown that noise exposure may affect temporal envelope processing at supra-threshold levels while the absolute hearing threshold remains in the normal range. However, human studies have failed to consistently find such issue due to poor cont…

The experiments reported within this thesis use psychophysical techniques to examine the factors which determine perceived multisensory timing in humans. Chapters 1 and 2 describe anatomical and psychophysical features of temporal processing, respectively, whilst Chapter 3 intro…

The ability to capture the temporal dimension of a natural language text is essential to many natural language processing applications, such as Question Answering, Automatic Summarisation, and Information Retrieval. Temporal processing is a ¯eld of Computational Linguistics whic…

The perception of time is one of the hallmarks of conscious experience. However, despite this importance, time is a relatively understudied dimension in psychology and cognitive neuroscience. A central question within the time perception literature is whether timing relies on a …
