Abstract:

Other interesting problems in the owl 1. Visualauditory fusion in the optic tectum OT adaptive alignment ICx 2. ITD disambiguation combine frequencies 3. Details of VLVp connections and dynamics 4. IID tuning mechanism in ICc lateral shell 5. Dependence on average binaural intensity in OT Problems we have yet to work on 1. Motion sensitivity in IC 2. Adaptation in VLVp.
