Populations of auditory cortical neurons can accurately encode acoustic space across stimulus intensity

LM Miller, GH Recanzone - Proceedings of the National …, 2009 - National Acad Sciences
The auditory cortex is critical for perceiving a sound's location. However, there is no
topographic representation of acoustic space, and individual auditory cortical neurons are …

Distributed coding of sound locations in the auditory cortex

GC Stecker, JC Middlebrooks - Biological cybernetics, 2003 - Springer
Although the auditory cortex plays an important role in sound localization, that role is not
well understood. In this paper, we examine the nature of spatial representation within the …

Book Review: Cortical Neurons That Localize Sounds

JC Middlebrooks, L Xu, S Furukawa… - The …, 2002 - journals.sagepub.com
Efforts to locate a cortical map of auditory space generally have proven unsuccessful. At
moderate sound levels, cortical neurons generally show large or unbounded spatial …

Interdependent encoding of pitch, timbre, and spatial location in auditory cortex

JK Bizley, KMM Walker, BW Silverman… - Journal of …, 2009 - Soc Neuroscience
Because we can perceive the pitch, timbre, and spatial location of a sound source
independently, it seems natural to suppose that cortical processing of sounds might …

Correlation between the activity of single auditory cortical neurons and sound-localization behavior in the macaque monkey

GH Recanzone, DC Guard… - Journal of …, 2000 - journals.physiology.org
Lesion studies have indicated that the auditory cortex is crucial for the perception of acoustic
space, yet it remains unclear how these neurons participate in this perception. To investigate …

[HTML][HTML] Neurons in primary auditory cortex represent sound source location in a cue-invariant manner

KC Wood, SM Town, JK Bizley - Nature Communications, 2019 - nature.com
Auditory cortex is required for sound localisation, but how neural firing in auditory cortex
underlies our perception of sound sources in space remains unclear. Specifically, whether …

Neural coding strategies in auditory cortex

X Wang - Hearing research, 2007 - Elsevier
In contrast to the visual system, the auditory system has longer subcortical pathways and
more spiking synapses between the peripheral receptors and the cortex. This unique …

[HTML][HTML] Decoding neural responses to temporal cues for sound localization

DFM Goodman, V Benichoux, R Brette - Elife, 2013 - elifesciences.org
The activity of sensory neural populations carries information about the environment. This
may be extracted from neural activity using different strategies. In the auditory brainstem, a …

[HTML][HTML] Location coding by opponent neural populations in the auditory cortex

GC Stecker, IA Harrington, JC Middlebrooks - PLoS biology, 2005 - journals.plos.org
Although the auditory cortex plays a necessary role in sound localization, physiological
investigations in the cortex reveal inhomogeneous sampling of auditory space that is difficult …

Spatial processing in the auditory cortex of the macaque monkey

GH Recanzone - Proceedings of the National Academy of …, 2000 - National Acad Sciences
The patterns of cortico-cortical and cortico-thalamic connections of auditory cortical areas in
the rhesus monkey have led to the hypothesis that acoustic information is processed in …
