Inferring the basis of binaural detection with a modified autoencoder (2023)
Journal Article
Smith, S., Sollini, J., & Akeroyd, M. A. (2023). Inferring the basis of binaural detection with a modified autoencoder. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 17, Article 1000079. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnins.2023.1000079

The binaural system utilizes interaural timing cues to improve the detection of auditory signals presented in noise. In humans, the binaural mechanisms underlying this phenomenon cannot be directly measured and hence remain contentious. As an alterna...
