From children to adults: How binaural cues and ear canal impedances grow
… evaluated with regard to its influence on binaural cues and ear canal impedances with the help of suitable simulation- and measurement techniques. It becomes evident that children and adults differ tremendously as far as their respective head-related transfer functions are concerned. …

Mechanisms of sound localization in mammals: ageing, dynamics and adaption
… the azimuthal location of a sound source. These binaural cues play an important role in the ability of animals, including humans, to orient and communicate. Since the auditory scene is not static and the brain is also subject to developmental changes, neural plasticity constitutes a crucial …

Neural correlates and mechanisms of sound localization in everyday reverberant settings
… arriving at a listener's ears, distorting the binaural cues for sound localization. Yet, human listeners have little difficulty localizing sounds in most settings. This thesis addresses fundamental questions regarding the neural basis of sound localization in everyday reverberant environments. …

Binaural interactions in the auditory midbrain with bilateral electric stimulation of the cochlea
… implantation seeks to restore the advantages of binaural hearing to the profoundly deaf by giving them access to binaural cues normally important for accurate sound localization and speech reception in noise. This thesis characterizes binaural interactions in auditory neurons using a cat model of …

Effect of reverberation on the directional sensitivity of auditory neurons : peripheral factors
… acoustic reflections. These reflections corrupt binaural cues available to the receiver, resulting in a degradation of directional information available in the acoustic stimulus. Despite this interaction, directionally-sensitive neural responses in the auditory midbrain have been shown to be more …
