Annotation in Czech
A series of experiments will be performed, measuring the extent to which visual feedback can be used to change the weights the listeners (both NH and Cl) use when combining the ITD and ILD cues into a spatial percept. If the weights can change (in particular, if the ITD weight can be increased), then it might be possible to train the Cl listeners to weight fine-structure ITD information more, resulting in improvements in their ITD sensitivity. This strategy could then be used to design training tools for improving sound localization performance with Cl systems encoding fine-structure ITD inform ation.

Project results evaluation
This project was being realized in the framework of the MOBILITY Activity that aims primarily on establishing and strenghtening ties with foreign research institutions. The control of particular outputs is not implemented by the evalution committee, but the correctness of allocated finances and the adequacy of their use are checked.
