On the peripheral hearing mechanism, the authors assumed interaction, feedback effect and incidence probability of impulse that chose the stationary or nonstationary stochastical process in accordance with the ratio of input to output capacity.
Under this assumption, the following result were obtained by application of the stochastical model.
1. Universal explanation that applicable to every loudness growth types of the sensory-neural disorder can be obtained.
2. Comparing the slope of the temporal threshold curve on the short tone durations at the sensory-neural disorder to that of equal loudness curves at the different Sensation levels of the normal ear, the authors could not only pick out the localization and the grade of disorder, but also estimate the stage of the disease (reversible type or unreversible type).
