Coincidence detection models were extended to also encode ILD sensitivity

Evidence

A number of extensions have been proposed to the coincidence detection model, such as the one presented by Breebaart et al. (2001). In their model, the delay lines are connected to a chain of attenuators and each coincidence detector of the original model (see Figure 13.13) is replaced by two excitation–inhibition cells, one receiving the excitation from the left ear and inhibition from the right ear, and the other with opposite connections. Effectively, they extend the coincidence detection model to account also for ILD sensitivity. — Ville Pulkki, Matti Karjalainen, Communication Acoustics- An…, 1673
