An important feature of our auditory system is its ability to detect voiced signals even under
extremly noisy conditions (“cocktail party effect”). By spectral filtering, the cochlea improves …

Interaural time difference (ITD; the delay between arrival of sound at the 2 ears) is one of the
primary cues for localization of sound in the azimuthal (left-right) dimension. Its use …

Sound envelope temporal fluctuations are important for effective processing of biologically
relevant acoustic information including speech, animal vocalizations, sound‐source …

Interaural time differences (ITDs) conveyed by the modulated envelopes of high-frequency
sounds can serve as a cue for localizing a sound source. Klein-Hennig et al.(J Acoust Soc …

Responses of low characteristic-frequency (CF) neurons in the inferior colliculus were
obtained to amplitude-modulated (AM) high-frequency tones in which the modulation rate …

The responses of primary auditory cortex (A1) neurons to pure tones in anesthetized
animals are usually described as having mostly narrow, unimodal frequency tuning and …

The cerebral representation of the temporal envelope of sounds was studied in five normal-
