Across-frequency combination of interaural time difference in bilateral cochlear implant listeners [PDF]
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014 The current study examined how cochlear implant (CI) listeners combine temporally interleaved envelope-ITD information across two sites of stimulation.

Modelling of human low frequency sound localization acuity demonstrates dominance of spatial variation of interaural time difference and suggests uniform just-noticeable differences in interaural time difference. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Sound source localization is critical to animal survival and for identification of auditory objects. We investigated the acuity with which humans localize low frequency, pure tone sounds using timing differences between the ears.

A Bayesian computational basis for auditory selective attention using head rotation and the interaural time-difference cue. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The process of resolving mixtures of several sounds into their separate individual streams is known as auditory scene analysis and it remains a challenging task for computational systems.

Computation of interaural time difference in the owl's coincidence detector neurons. [PDF]
J Neurosci, 2011 Both the mammalian and avian auditory systems localize sound sources by computing the interaural time difference (ITD) with submillisecond accuracy. The neural circuits for this computation in birds consist of axonal delay lines and coincidence detector ...

A functional circuit model of interaural time difference processing.
J Neurophysiol, 2014 Inputs from the two sides of the brain interact to create maps of interaural time difference (ITD) in the nucleus laminaris of birds. How inputs from each side are matched with high temporal precision in ITD-sensitive circuits is unknown, given the differences in input path lengths from each side.

The Relationship Between Interaural Insertion-Depth Differences, Scalar Location, and Interaural Time-Difference Processing in Adult Bilateral Cochlear-Implant Listeners. [PDF]
Trends Hear, 2022 Sensitivity to interaural time differences (ITDs) in acoustic hearing involves comparison of interaurally frequency-matched inputs. Bilateral cochlear-implant arrays are, however, only approximately aligned in angular insertion depth and scalar location ...

Cellular Strategies for Frequency-Dependent Computation of Interaural Time Difference [PDF]
Frontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022 Binaural coincidence detection is the initial step in encoding interaural time differences (ITDs) for sound-source localization. In birds, neurons in the nucleus laminaris (NL) play a central role in this process.

Neuronal sensitivity to the interaural time difference of the sound envelope in the mouse inferior colliculus. [PDF]
Hear Res, 2020 We examined the sensitivity of the neurons in the mouse inferior colliculus (IC) to the interaural time differences (ITD) conveyed in the sound envelope.

Microsecond interaural time difference discrimination restored by cochlear implants after neonatal deafness [PDF]
eLife, 2021 Spatial hearing in cochlear implant (CI) patients remains a major challenge, with many early deaf users reported to have no measurable sensitivity to interaural time differences (ITDs).

Effect of inter-aural modulation depth difference on interaural time difference thresholds for speech: An observational study [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2020 Background: The temporal envelope (ENV) plays a vital role in conveying inter-aural time difference (ITD) in many clinical populations. However, the presence of background noise and electronic features, such as compression, reduces the modulation depth ...
