A Unified Theory for the Development of Tinnitus Perception and Hyperacusis Based on Associative Plasticity in the Dorsal Cochlear Nucleus.

Brain sciences · 2026

A new theoretical model: tinnitus and hyperacusis may arise from strengthening of two DIFFERENT synapses onto the same DCN neurons, explaining why hyperacusis so often accompanies tinnitus, but not the reverse.

Predictive coding and stochastic resonance as fundamental principles of auditory phantom perception.

Brain : a journal of neurology · 2023

Review: tinnitus and other auditory phantom percepts may reflect the brain's own predictive-coding machinery amplifying random neural noise (stochastic resonance) into a false percept.
