The Auditory Modeling Toolbox (AMT) is a MATLAB/Octave toolbox for the development and
application of computational auditory models with a particular focus on binaural hearing …

A number of auditory models have been developed using diverging approaches, either
physiological or perceptual, but they share comparable stages of signal processing, as they …

Decisions are based on the subjective values of choice options. However, subjective value
is a theoretical construct and not directly observable. Strikingly, distinct theoretical models …

Neurons encode information in the timing of their spikes in addition to their firing rates. Spike
timing is particularly precise in the auditory nerve, where action potentials phase lock to …

Bilateral cochlear implants (CIs) greatly improve spatial hearing acuity for CI users, but
substantial gaps still exist compared to normal-hearing listeners. For example, CI users have …

Lateralization of complex high-frequency sounds is conveyed by interaural level differences
(ILDs) and interaural time differences (ITDs) in the envelope. In this work, the authors …

Human listeners need to permanently interact with their three-dimensional (3D)
environment. To this end, spatial hearing requires efficient perceptual mechanisms to form a …

Computational modeling has a central role in understanding the mechanisms behind
experimental observations. This chapter describes how models of binaural processing are …

Measuring and understanding spatial hearing is a fundamental step to create effective
virtual auditory displays (VADs). The evaluation of such auralization systems often requires …

Sound localization relies on minute differences in the timing and intensity of sound arriving
at both ears. Neurons of the lateral superior olive (LSO) in the brainstem process these …
