Abstract :
The early research on auditory scene analysis (ASA) - the subject of my talk at the corresponding IEEE workshop in 1995 - has been followed by many exciting studies that have opened up new directions of research. A number of them will be discussed under the following headings: (1) What is the role of attention in ASA? (2) What have we learned by using evoked potentials to study ASA? (3) To what extent has research on human babies and on non-human animals supported the idea that primitive ASA is "wired into" the brain? (4) What is the physiological basis of ASA? (5) How is "binding" carried out in the brain?
