Abstract
The stereausis model of biological auditory processing is proposed
as a representation that encodes both binaural and spectral information
in a unified framework. A working analog VLSI chip that implements this
model of early auditory processing in the brain is described. The chip
is a 100000-transistor integrated circuit that computes the stereausis
representation in real time, using continuous-time analog processing.
The chip receives two audio inputs, representing sound entering the two
ears, computes the stereausis representation, and generates output
signals that can directly drive a color CRT display. Outputs from the
chips for a variety of artificial and speech stimuli are shown
