Surprisingly, when you try to listen for a tone in noise, this can
actually be easier when extra noise is added. This rogue phenomenon is
called comodulation masking release. I work on how this phenomenon may
aid cochlear implant listeners.

comodulation masking release improve speech intelligibility?
