Virtual Reality and Sound Localization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Psychoacoustics is the scientific study of sound perception. Within this field, Virtual Reality is a technique that uses two synthesis speakers to simulate a sine tone coming from anywhere in open space.

The Sensitivity of Hearing-Impaired Adults to Acoustic Attributes in Simulated Rooms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In previous studies we have shown that older hearing-impaired individuals are relatively insensitive to changes in the apparent width of broadband noises when those width changes were based on differences in interaural coherence [W. Whitmer, B.

Population rate-coding predicts correctly that human sound localization depends on sound intensity

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Human sound localization is an important computation performed by the brain. Models of sound localization commonly assume that sound lateralization from interaural time differences is level invariant.

Population Coding of Interaural Time Differences in Gerbils and Barn Owls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Interaural time differences (ITDs) are the primary cue for the localization of low-frequency sound sources in the azimuthal plane. For decades, it was assumed that the coding of ITDs in the mammalian brain was similar to that in the avian brain, where ...

Sound-Intensity-Dependent Compensation for the Small Interaural Time Difference Cue for Sound Source Localization

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2008
Interaural time difference (ITD) is a major cue for sound source localization. However, animals with small heads experience small ITDs, making ITD detection difficult, particularly for low-frequency sound.

Psychoacoustic Considerations in Surround Sound with Height [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper presents recent research findings in the psychoacoustics of 3D multichannel sound recording and rendering. The addition of height channels in new reproduction formats such as Auro-3D, Dolby Atmos and 22.2, etc. enhances the perceived spatial

Distribution of Interaural Time Difference in the Barn Owl's Inferior Colliculus in the Low- and High-Frequency Ranges

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2007
Interaural time differences are an important cue for azimuthal sound localization. It is still unclear whether the same neuronal mechanisms underlie the representation in the brain of interaural time difference in different vertebrates and whether these ...

Optical Imaging of Interaural Time Difference Representation in Rat Auditory Cortex

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroengineering, 2008
We used in vivo voltage-sensitive dye optical imaging to examine the cortical representation of interaural time difference (ITD), which is believed to be involved in sound source localization.

Interplay between low threshold voltage-gated K+ channels and synaptic inhibition in neurons of the chicken nucleus laminaris along its frequency axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Central auditory neurons that localize sound in horizontal space have specialized intrinsic and synaptic cellular mechanisms to tightly control the threshold and timing for action potential generation.
