Detection of acoustic temporal fine structure by cochlear implant listeners: Behavioral results and computational modeling

► We tested detection of acoustic temporal fine structure in cochlear implant listeners. ► Subjects using 1-channel SAS strategy consistently outperformed those using CIS. ► At F0 = 200 Hz, 1-channel SAS listeners outperformed those using 16-channel HiRes. ► We modeled neural spikes evoked by Schroeder-phase stimuli using a biophysical model. ► Discrimination estimated based on the model tracked behavioral performance.
