@cognition @psycholinguistics The Modulation Group brings together researchers from 3 institutions in Paris: l'Ecole normale supérieure, Université Paris Cité and Ircam. (2/X)

At the core of the Modulation group is the notion of computational modelling of auditory processing. In almost all our projects we use artificial listeners as a baseline to compare/predict/interpret the results of human participants. We also contribute actively to the Auditory Modeling Toolbox project (https://www.amtoolbox.org/), which provides open-source models for many stages of the auditory system. (3/X)

This very crowded slide details the Human Auditory ecology project led by Christian Lorenzi, investigating many aspects of the perception of natural soundscape by humans, from the detection of biophony (e.g. birdsongs) to the design of an algorithm for synthesizing natural soundscapes

The Auditory Classification Images project is actually the follow-up of my PhD work from 10 years ago. We develop new methods to investigate auditory perception, using a microscopic trial-by-trial analysis (aka "revcorr") of the participant’s responses. We apply this approach to the study of phoneme categorization, AM detection, and sentence segmentation. (5/X)

The Université Paris Cité team, led by Laurianne Cabrera, is mainly interested in the auditory development during childhood and infancy. In this project, Irene Lorenzini and Charlotte Benoit try to relate the maturation of AM processing in 5- to 11-year old children to the improvement of speech in noise perception during this period of life.
