Anatomical limits on interaural time differences: An ecological perspective [PDF]
Human listeners, and other animals too, use interaural time differences (ITD)to localize sounds. If the sounds are pure tones, a simple frequency factorrelates the ITD to the interaural phase difference (IPD), for which there areknown iso-IPD boundaries,

Change in the coding of interaural time difference along the tonotopic axis of the chicken nucleus laminaris [PDF]
Interaural time differences (ITDs) are an important cue for the localization of sounds in azimuthal space. Both birds and mammals have specialized, tonotopically-organized nuclei in the brain stem for the processing of ITD: medial superior olive (MSO) in

Partial Learning in Human Sound Localization With Asymmetric Ears. [PDF]
Giving humans asymmetric barn‐owl ears disrupts elevation localization by removing normal spectral pinna cues. With experience, listeners partially relearn to localize elevation using novel binaural cues. Results show that adult auditory spatial processing is flexible enough to repurpose cues but strongly constrained in the extent of relearning ...

Unveiling Otolith Mystery: Contemporary Testing Approaches and Their Clinical Significance. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Otolith is a critical component of the peripheral vestibular system responsible for detecting linear acceleration. Dysfunction of the otolith organs can lead to vertigo, balance disturbances, and gaze instability. By elucidating the physiological foundations and evaluating both current and emerging methods for assessing otolith ...

Adaptation in sound localization processing induced by interaural time difference in amplitude envelope at high frequencies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: When a second sound follows a long first sound, its location appears to be perceived away from the first one (the localization/lateralization aftereffect).

Reliability of Interaural Time Difference-Based Localization Training in Elderly Individuals with Speech-in-Noise Perception Disorder [PDF]
Background: Previous studies have shown that interaural-time-difference (ITD) training can improve localization ability. Surprisingly little is, however, known about localization training vis-à-vis speech perception in noise based on interaural time ...
