There are good reasons why human beings have failed to develop an ability for olfactory recall compared with other forms of perception. Auditory recall is an essential part of our ability to use sound as a means of communication and language, and visual recall, including our ability to see things as they might be rather than as they are is basic to our purposeful manipulation of objects.

The links between levels of exposure and inconvenience caused by ventilation noise are described in an investigation carried out on office workers.- Technical measurements and analyses of the ventilation noise at 155 typical office workplaces were in this study combined with assessments by the office workers of the level of disturbance that they experienced, the effect on working performance, fatigue, stress-related pain, and headaches. The average noise level was about 40 dB(A) at two of the workplaces, while it was about 35 dB(A) at two others. It emerged from rhe narrow-band analyses that the sound pressure levels of rhe infrasound were not in any event of an order that this type of sound frequencies (below 20 Hz) could contribute to any disturbance effects. Any steps taken to counter the sound frequencies of the ventilation noise under 50 Hz, i.e., the point of btersection between the threshold curve of auditory perception and the spectral level distribution curve of... 

The results clearly indicated that the ventilation noise was perceived as most acceptable when the tone was situated in the low er part of the frequency range. The experience of disturbance and the associated effects occur at exposure levels above the auditory perception threshold. Above this level, the risk of these effects increases as the perceived loudness increases, provided that the other conditions remain constant. Since the loudness can be predicted relatively accurately by means of technical measurements, any differences in the degree of disturbance can also be predicted by reference to these measurements, provided that they are dependent on differences in the loudness.

The observations of fine motor problems in infants born to heroin addicts has also been described by Wilson et al., in 1973. She notes the discrepancy between the gross motor skills of the infants and fine motor abilities during the first year. Furthermore, in 1979, Wilson et al, described the development of preschool children between 3 and 6 years of age, born to heroin-addicted mothers. They performed poorer on measures of visual, tactile, and auditory perception, were more active, and had... 

Hallucinogen A drug that disturbs sensory perception. Visual hallucinations are the most common effect of the psychedelic drug LSD. In contrast, auditory hallucinations predominate in schizophrenia. 

Hallucinations are false perceptions of one of the five primary senses (sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell). In schizophrenia, hallucinations are usually auditory of one or more voices. When these take the form of two voices carrying on a conversation or a voice making a running commentary on the patient s behavior, they are especially suggestive of schizophrenia. 

Hallucinations are false perceptions in the absence of a real sensory stimulus. They are typically auditory, consisting of voices that arise from both within and outside the body. They may be threatening, can ridicule, or may urge patients to objectionable acts (i.e., command hallucinations). Visual hallucinations are also relatively frequent, but olfactory (e.g., unpleasant smells arising from the patient s own body) or tactile hallucinations (e.g., animals crawling inside one s body or insects crawling over the skin) are uncommon.

Beyond the perception of the body itself, the enhanced sensory experience has called attention to the pleasures and insights that can be obtained directly from sensory experience. Light shows and modern rock music reflect some of the visual and auditory experiences produced by psychedelics. Aldous Huxley (1956) has pointed out the luminous intensity of colors found in "the antipodes of the mind," and this is mimicked by Day-Glo paints and the eerie glow of... 

In the literature on measuring the quality of audio devices one mostly finds measurement techniques that characterize the audio device under test. The characterization either has build in knowledge of human auditory perception or the characterization has to be interpreted with knowledge of human auditory perception.

Different from source coding, in perceptual coding the emphasis is on the removal of only the data which are irrelevant to the auditory system, i.e. to the ear. The signal is coded in a way which minimizes noise audibility. This can lead to increased noise as measured by Signal-to-Noise-Ratio (SNR) or similar measures. The rest of the chapter describes how knowledge about perception can be applied to code generic audio in a very efficient way. 

The main question in perceptual coding is What amount of noise can be introduced to the signal without being audible Answers to this question are derived from psychoacoustics. Psychoacoustics describes the relationship between acoustic events and the resulting auditory perceptions [Zwicker and Feldtkeller, 1967], [Zwicker and Fasti, 1990], [Fletcher, 1940],...
