Abstract
The amplitude of natural sounds, including speech and animal vocalizations, often shows characteristic modulations. We examined the relationship between neuronal responses in the mouse inferior colliculus and the behavioral detection of amplitude modulation (AM) in sound and modeled how the former can give rise to the latter. Our model suggests that behavioral detection can be well explained by the activity of a subset of neurons showing the largest firing rate changes in response to AM.
