Distinguish speech from noise: US scientists conduct new study
New research by American scientists has allowed them to understand how our brain distinguishes between speech and noise effects. For the first time, they received evidence of this mechanism.
American experts conducted specialized experiments and analyzed the data obtained. They proved that the introduction of acetylcholine affects the "understanding" of acoustic data entering the brain.
It is noted that the above-mentioned neuromodulator is able to distinguish speech signals from noise. Groups of neurons that regulate the work of other nerve cells have a significant effect on the transcription of sound.
It is assumed that the results of the study will be used in the study of computational processes taking place in the brain stem. In particular, in the auditory circuits. This also goes for a more detailed explanation of how the brain processes any sensory data.
At this stage, the lead author of the study is studying neuronal circuits. This is done in order to compute locations that signal sounds in space.
The scientists published their materials in a specialized journal of one of the American universities. It is expected that they will pay attention to this area and be involved in further research.
