Neurons in the medial superior olive (MSO) detect microsecond differences in the arrival
time of sounds between the ears (interaural time differences or ITDs), a crucial binaural cue …

Key points• Organisms localise low frequencies using interaural time disparities (ITDs) in
which specialized neurones in the medial superior olive (MSO) compute submillisecond …

Neurons in the medial superior olive process sound-localization cues via binaural
coincidence detection, in which excitatory synaptic inputs from each ear are segregated onto …

Sound localization critically depends on detection of differences in arrival time of sounds at
the two ears (acoustic delay). The fundamental mechanisms are debated, but all proposals …

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 …

Low-frequency sound localization depends on the neural computation of interaural time
differences (ITD) and relies on neurons in the auditory brain stem that integrate synaptic …

Interaural time differences (ITDs) represent an important cue in sound localization and
auditory scene analysis. To assess this cue the auditory system internally delays binaural …

The spatial arrangement of inputs on to single neurons is assumed to be crucial in accurate
signal processing. In mammals, the most precise temporal processing occurs in the context …

Understanding binaural perception requires detailed analyses of the neural circuitry
responsible for the computation of interaural time differences (ITDs). In the avian brainstem …

The dominant cue for localization of low-frequency sounds are microsecond differences in
the time-of-arrival of sounds at the two ears [interaural time difference (ITD)]. In mammals …
