Sensitivity to interaural time differences in the medial superior olive of a small mammal, the Mexican free-tailed bat [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
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

Contextual Lateralization Based on Interaural Level Differences Is Preshaped by the Auditory Periphery and Predominantly Immune Against Sequential Segregation

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2023
The perceived azimuth of a target sound is determined by the interaural time difference and the interaural level difference (ILD) and is subject to contextual effects from precursor sounds.

Enhancement of interaural level differences for bilateral cochlear implant users

open access: yesHearing Research, 2021
Bilateral cochlear implant (BiCI) users do not localize sounds as well as normal hearing (NH) listeners do. NH listeners rely on two binaural cues to localize sounds in the horizontal plane, namely interaural level differences (ILDs) and interaural time differences. BiCI systems, however, convey these cues poorly.

Sensitivity to Interaural Level Difference and Loudness Growth with Bilateral Bimodal Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The interaural level difference (ILD) is an important cue for the localization of sound sources. The sensitivity to ILD was measured in 10 users of a cochlear implant (CI) in one ear and a hearing aid (HA) in the other severely impaired ear.

Individualized Interaural Feature Learning and Personalized Binaural Localization Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
The increasing importance of spatial audio technologies has demonstrated the need and importance of correctly adapting to the individual characteristics of the human auditory system, and illustrates the crucial need for humanoid localization systems for ...

Single-sided deafness and unilateral auditory deprivation in children: current challenge of improving sound localization ability

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Interaural time difference and interaural level difference signals are insufficient in patients with single-sided deafness (SSD). This insufficiency leads to an absence of sound localization abilities and a decrease in speech intelligibility in noisy ...

Detection of interaural differences of level in multitone complexes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990
This study examined the effects of diotic components on the ability to detect interaural differences of level (IDL) at the center frequency (753 Hz) of a multitone complex. Threshold interaural differences of level (ΔIDL) were measured as a function of the number of components in the complex (3 and 7) and the frequency spacing (Δf) between components ...

Exploiting the distance information of the interaural level difference for binaural robot motion control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
International audienceThis paper proposes a control framework allowing to position a robot in range and orientation with respect to a sound source from a binaural system.

Auditory Model-Based Sound Direction Estimation With Bilateral Cochlear Implants

open access: yesTrends in Hearing, 2015
Users of bilateral cochlear implants (CIs) show above-chance performance in localizing the source of a sound in the azimuthal (horizontal) plane; although localization errors are far worse than for normal-hearing listeners, they are considerably better ...

Are there morpho‐acoustic patterns of adaptation in nonhuman primate ears? Testing the role of ecology and habitat in shaping ear morphology and function

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...
