Mechanisms of sound localization in mammals.
The ability to determine the location of a sound source is fundamental to hearing. However, auditory space is not represented in any systematic manner on the basilar membrane of the cochlea, the sensory surface of the receptor organ for hearing. Understanding the means by which sensitivity to spatial cues is computed in central neurons can therefore contribute to our understanding of the basic ...

متن کاملNeural mechanisms of sound localization in an echolocating bat.
The mustache bat emits a three-harmonic echolocation pulse. At the external ear, large interaural intensity differences are generated only when a sound originates within a limited area of two-dimensional space, and this area is different for each pulse harmonic. As a consequence, the external ear generates pronounced binaural spectral cues containing two-dimensional spatial information. This in...
متن کاملMonaural Sound Localization
The principles of human sound localization imply binaural (interaural level and time difference) as well as monaural cues. The latter are captured by the head-related transfer functions (HRTFs), which describe the direction-dependent, spectral shaping of the incident sound wave, and can be exploited to determine the direction. In this paper an accurate talker localization strategy in the horizo...
