From Hearing to Listening: Design and Properties of an Actively Tunable Electronic Hearing Sensor

An important step towards understanding the working principles of the mammalian hearing sensor is the concept of an active cochlear amplifier. Theoretical arguments and physiological measurements suggest that the active cochlear amplifiers originate from systems close to a Hopf bifurcation. Efforts...
