Sound localization: Jeffress and beyond

G Ashida, CE Carr - Current opinion in neurobiology, 2011 - Elsevier
Many animals use the interaural time differences (ITDs) to locate the source of low frequency
sounds. The place coding theory proposed by Jeffress has long been a dominant model to …

Theoretical foundations of the sound analog membrane potential that underlies coincidence detection in the barn owl

G Ashida, K Funabiki, CE Carr - Frontiers in computational …, 2013 - frontiersin.org
A wide variety of neurons encode temporal information via phase-locked spikes. In the avian
auditory brainstem, neurons in the cochlear nucleus magnocellularis (NM) send phase …

Biophysical basis of the sound analog membrane potential that underlies coincidence detection in the barn owl

G Ashida, K Funabiki, CE Carr - Frontiers in computational …, 2013 - frontiersin.org
Interaural time difference (ITD), or the difference in timing of a sound wave arriving at the two
ears, is a fundamental cue for sound localization. A wide variety of animals have specialized …

Signal-to-noise ratio in the membrane potential of the owl's auditory coincidence detectors

G Ashida, K Funabiki, PT Kuokkanen… - Journal of …, 2012 - journals.physiology.org
Owls use interaural time differences (ITDs) to locate a sound source. They compute ITD in a
specialized neural circuit that consists of axonal delay lines from the cochlear nucleus …
