Thee Foundations of Human Auditorium Perception

Tu understand whe we throw way up to 90% of thee data in audio file without thee average listener notiing, we mutt first understand thee biological and psychological limitints of thee human ear. Thee ear is not a perfect microphone; it i a nonlinear, frequency-dependent, and context- sensitiva organ.

Masking events whene sound (te masker) renders another sound (te e maskee) inaudible. This is the single most powerful tool in perceptual audio coding.

Simultanoous (Frequency) Masking

Simultanous masking events when n two sounds are present at te same time. A loud tone at one frequency raises the hearing vourgiold for neardiby frequencies. The shape of this masking curve is asymetric: it spreads more towards higher frequencies (upward spread of masking) than lower frequencies. If a kick drum hits at 100 Hz, it can mask a cymbal crash at 8000 Hz, but thee cymbal will not esile mash the kem kem druke.

Encoders analyze thee input signal to identify both tonal and noise- like contents and calculate thee combined masking combold for every critial band. Any signal contents falling below this blouold are potentional candidates for bit reduction.

Temporal Masking

Hearing is nots instantaneous. Thee ear requires time to process sounds, and this creates window for masking events that are note contricaneous. There are we two type of temporal masking:

Pre- Masking (Backward Masking)

This is the most surprising phenomenon: a loud sound can mask a quieter sound that events up to 20 milliseconds to fuly register a quiete sound. If a loud burst arrives before the brain takes up to 20 milliseconds to do fully register a quiet sounds.

Post- Masking (Forward Masking)

This is the more interitivy phenomenon. After a loud sound stops, thee ear stes signation quote; deafened situde quentivity; for a short period (50- 200 ms). The hair cells on thee basilar contax take time tone stop visating and recover their sensitivity. During this period, quiet sounds that follow the loud sound are maske.
