Timely delivery of information is essential for proper functioning of the nervous system.
Precise regulation of nerve conduction velocity is needed for correct exertion of motor skills …

“Neural coding” is a popular metaphor in neuroscience, where objective properties of the
world are communicated to the brain in the form of spikes. Here I argue that this metaphor is …

By Fourier's theorem, signals can be decomposed into a sum of sinusoids of different
frequencies. This is especially relevant for hearing, because the inner ear performs a form of …

This fully updated and revised sixth edition of Hearing: An Introduction to Psychological and
Physiological Acoustics provides a comprehensive introduction for graduate students and …

Speech is the primary vehicle of human social interaction. In everyday life, speech
communication occurs under an enormous range of different environmental conditions. The …

Our concepts of sound localization in the vertebrate brain are widely based on the general
assumption that both the ability to detect air-borne sounds and the neuronal processing are …

The arrival times of a sound at the two ears are only microseconds apart, but both birds and
mammals can use these interaural time differences to localize low-frequency sounds …

Sound location in azimuth is signaled by differences in the times of arrival (interaural time
difference, ITDs) and the amplitudes (interaural level differences, ILDs) of the stimuli at the …

For more than six decades, scientists have developed binaural models of the human
auditory system. Some of them, for instance, the so-called coincidence model and the so …
