Abstract:Early sensory processing is long thought to extract and exploit redundancy and regularity in the input, but perceptual evidence supporting this hypothesis has been limited. Experiments are reported demonstrating efficient encoding of multiple acoustic attributes resulting in the reduction of perceptual dimensionality. Stimuli varied across two complex independent dimensions: attack/decay (AD) and spectral shape (SS). A subset of 24 stimuli captured a near-perfect correlation between these dimensions (r2= 0.95)… Show more
