We find that ITD sensitivity in MSO model neurons is highly dependent on appropriate synaptic parameters for different input stimulation rates, so that, in order to achieve ongoing ITD sensitivity, the model parameters must be chosen for each specific rate. Generally, stronger excitatory synaptic in ...
