Neurotechnology: auditory neural networks mimic the human brain
• Neural networks could enhance the design of hearing aids, cochlear implants and brain-machine interfaces.
• Study shows that neural network models used for machine learning have an internal organisation that matches activity in the human auditory cortex.
• Models trained to distinguish different sounds in the same environment are paving the way for a better representation of auditory activity in the human brain. They could also help people with disabilities who have difficulty expressing themselves.
