Neuromorphic Model of the Human Auditory System

open in viewerMany people are affected by disorders of the auditory system that can make it harder to connect to other people and the rest of the world. Thus, researchers of the auditory system have attempted to replicate it in different ways in order to better understand it. However, these models tend to be limited by their levels of abstraction, which makes it difficult to chain them together for joint study. The model described in this paper sought to find a middle ground in the levels of abstraction, and to keep it as physiologically relevant as possible. To do this, the model contained parts to model the basilar membrane, inner hair cells, and the auditory nerve. Code was written to simulate the various functions of the encoding of a signal performed by the inner ear. The encoded signal was then decoded in order to assess the validity of the model. A constant 2 Hertz (Hz) signal and a short voice recording were both run through the model that produced accurate and audible results.
