A notched-noise precursor affects both diotic and dichotic notched-noise masking
Acta Acustica, 2021 The present study investigates how diotic and dichotic masked thresholds, in a notched-noise masking paradigm, are affected by activation of the Medial OlivoCochlear (MOC) reflex.

The functional role of GABA and glycine in monaural and binaural processing in the inferior colliculus of horseshoe bats [PDF]
, 1992 The functional role of GABA and glycine in monaural and binaural signal analysis was studied in single unit recordings from the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (IC) of horseshoe bats (Rhinolophus rouxi) employing microiontophoresis of the ...

Sound Event Detection Using Spatial Features and Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network [PDF]
, 2017 This paper proposes to use low-level spatial features extracted from multichannel audio for sound event detection. We extend the convolutional recurrent neural network to handle more than one type of these multichannel features by learning from each of ...

The role of perceived source location in auditory stream segregation: separation affects sound organization, common fate does not [PDF]
, 2013 The human auditory system is capable of grouping sounds originating from different sound sources into coherent auditory streams, a process termed auditory stream segregation. Several cues can influence auditory stream segregation, but the full set of cues

Inhibiting the inhibition [PDF]
, 2007 The precedence effect describes the phenomenon whereby echoes are spatially fused to the location of an initial sound by selectively suppressing the directional information of lagging sounds (echo suppression).

Detectability index measures of binaural masking level difference across populations of inferior colliculus neurons. [PDF]
, 1997 In everyday life we continually need to detect signals against a background of interfering noise (the “cocktail party effect”): a task that is much easier to accomplish using two ears.

Frequency response areas in the inferior colliculus: nonlinearity and binaural interaction
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013 The tuning, binaural properties, and encoding characteristics of neurons in the central nucleus of the inferior colliculus (CNIC) were investigated to shed light on nonlinearities in the responses of these neurons.

Proximal Binaural Sound Can Induce Subjective Frisson
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Auditory frisson is the experience of feeling of cold or shivering related to sound in the absence of a physical cold stimulus. Multiple examples of frisson-inducing sounds have been reported, but the mechanism of auditory frisson remains elusive ...
