Neural Coding of Relational Invariance in Speech: Human Language Analogs to the Barn Owl.
Sussman, Harvey M.
Psychological Review, v96 n4 p631-42 Oct 1989
The neuronal model shown to code sound-source azimuth in the barn owl by H. Wagner et al. in 1987 is used as the basis for a speculative brain-based human model, which can establish contrastive phonetic categories to solve the problem of perception "non-invariance." (SLD)
