This paper deals with the forward and reverse multi-channel
implementations of the Meddis's inner hair cell (IHC) based
auditory models. During the forward model implementation, we
have tested three different auditory models and used a suitable
filter bank as a pre-processor to Meddis IHC model and
calculated the auditory neural firing data for each channel.
In the reverse model implementation and test phase,
different sections of the model like Meddis IHC, half wave
rectifier (HWR) and filter bank have been inverted. Using the
outputs of the forward model as an input to the reverse model and
regenerating the estimate of the original signal, the performance
of the reverse model has been evaluated.
