The effects of stochastic neural activity in a model predicting intensity perception with cochlear implants: low-rate stimulation

Abstract

Most models of auditory nerve response to electrical stimulation are deterministic, despite significant physiological evidence for stochastic activity. Furthermore, psychophysical models and analyses of physiological data using deterministic descriptions do not accurately predict many psychophysical phenomena. In this paper we investigate whether inclusion of stochastic activity in neural models improves such predictions. To avoid the …
