Tracking of pitch probabilities in congenital amusia

<22>This paper demonstrated for the first time that amusia, a severe disorder of pitch perception, may reflect impaired conscious access to statistical structure in music, not a basic irreversible perceptual deficit, with important implications for treatment. It also introduced a novel methodology for investigating processing of probabilistic structure in real world sequential domains such as music and language. The research led directly to an invitation to give an international keynote presentation CogMIR 2013 (http://www.cogmir.org/) and helped establish the author's software as the leading computational model of expectation in music psychology (used in 11 papers at ICMPC'12, the leading conference, http://icmpc-escom2012.web.auth.gr).
