Time-Varying Distortions of Binaural Information by Bilateral Hearing Aids
In patients with bilateral hearing loss, the use of two hearing aids (HAs) offers the potential to restore the benefits of binaural hearing, including sound source localization and segregation. However, existing evidence suggests that bilateral HA users’

Interaural time difference processing in the mammalian medial superior olive [PDF]
The dominant cue for localization of low-frequency sounds are microsecond differences in the time-of-arrival of sounds at the two ears [interaural time difference (ITD)].

In speech enhancement, noise power spectral density (PSD) estimation plays a key role in determining appropriate de-nosing gains. In this paper, we propose a robust noise PSD estimator for binaural speech enhancement in time-varying noise environments ...

For speech in competition with a noise source in the free field, normal-hearing (NH) listeners recognize speech better when listening binaurally than when listening monaurally with the ear that has the better acoustic signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This benefit from listening binaurally is known as binaural unmasking and indicates that the brain combines

Coherent Coding of Enhanced Interaural Cues Improves Sound Localization in Noise With Bilateral Cochlear Implants [PDF]
Bilateral cochlear implant (BCI) users only have very limited spatial hearing abilities. Speech coding strategies transmit interaural level differences (ILDs) but in a distorted manner. Interaural time difference (ITD) information transmission is even more limited.

Sensitivity to interaural time differences in the medial superior olive of a small mammal, the Mexican free-tailed bat [PDF]
Neurons in the medial superior olive (MSO) are thought to encode interaural time differences (ITDs), the main binaural cues used for localizing low-frequency sounds in the horizontal plane. The underlying mechanism is supposed to rely on a coincidence of

Adaptation of Binaural Processing in the Adult Brainstem Induced by Ambient Noise [PDF]
Interaural differences in stimulus intensity and timing are major cues for sound localization. In mammals, these cues are first processed in the lateral and medial superior olive by interaction of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic inputs from ipsi- and ...

Abstract With global population aging, age‐related hearing loss has become a major public health concern. Understanding the relationship between auditory functional decline and cochlear structural degeneration is essential for early detection and precise intervention.

Human auditory cortical processing of changes in interaural correlation [PDF]
Sensitivity to the similarity of the acoustic waveforms at the two ears, and specifically to changes in similarity, is crucial to auditory scene analysis and extraction of objects from background.

Psychophysical and physiological evidence for fast binaural processing [PDF]
The mammalian auditory system is the temporally most precise sensory modality: To localize low-frequency sounds in space, the binaural system can resolve time differences between the ears with microsecond precision.
