Abstract :
Hybrid masking models are defined to be the separation of the perceptual and non-perceptual elements of auditory processing. This separation allows masking models to be defined for arbitrary cochlea. Using this separation, hybrid masking models may serve people with normal or impaired hearing, people of different ages and even the wider mammalian kingdom. As perceptual models of the cochlea improve, the potential exists for masking models to improve by directly applying more accurate cochlea descriptions
