Geometric Perturbation Theory and ICE: A cool part of (azimuthal) sound localization
A talk in the Bielefeld Stochastic Afternoon series by
Leo Van Hemmen
| Abstract: |
Azimuthal sound localization needs determining the time and level
difference between left and right eardrums. In doing so, more than half
of the land-living vertebrates take advantage of Internally Coupled Ears
(ICE) through an air-filled connection between the two eardrums. It is
shown how surprisingly well this “cool” construction works. The
underlying mathematics based on the sound-driven and, hence,
time-dependent spatial variation of the eardrums is presented and used
to exemplify a novel perturbation theory.
