Two fixed acoustic rules did not confirm shared nonvoice prediction gains in 18 SEEG patients and two fMRI groups

We tested prediction of held-out nonvoice sounds in separate human SEEG and BOLD fMRI studies. A local code lock preceded tests in 18 patients, 16 Boebinger adults and eight Norman-Haignere adults. A base model used four broad sound classes, loudness, spectral flux and MFCC1. Two full models added a voice-trained acoustic axis or the first acoustic principal component. Both used a source 88-feature rule. MRI features came from a different sound corpus. Mean voice-axis gains were -2.237%, +0.581% and +1.295%. Component gains were +0.501%, +3.170%, +2.736%. The shared voice and component Holm p values were 1 and 0.7915. Each claim required positive added gain and full skill in all three studies, with person tests. Neither full rule passed. All negative people and controls remain. A source audit found that a released ERP table used 0-550 ms, not the initially assumed 100-400 ms. This was corrected before endpoint scores. A Gaussian noise reference gives negative expected gain ratios without a neural signal. Separate cohorts, source selection, acoustic processing, finite sounds and different measurement filters limit scope. A later exploratory paired comparison favored the component in all three studies, but its NH2015 sound-resample range included zero. No common neural cause or causal effect was established. The package contains code, licensed extracts, new features, all scores, source pins, figures and repeat steps.

    Its discordant voice-axis test and principal-component check motivate this controlled source-axis transfer test. Its Gaussian reference is extended to the current design.
