\section{Developing a functional model of\\the grasshopper auditory pathway}
The auditory pathway of grasshoppers comprises a number of neuronal stages and
identified cell types~(\bcite{rehbein1974structure}; \bcite{rehbein1976auditory}).
% Either pick up in intro and/or discussion, or move entirely:
The grasshopper auditory system has been studied extensively over the past
decades; and a corresponding number of involved neuron types has been
described~(\bcite{rehbein1974structure}; \bcite{kalmring1975afferent};
\bcite{rehbein1976auditory}; \bcite{eichendorf1980projections}). The model we
propose here focuses on the pathway responsible for song recognition and
assumes a strict feed-forward organization of three consecutive neuronal
populations: Peripheral auditory receptor neurons~\mbox{(1st order)}, local
interneurons of the metathoracic ganglion~\mbox{(2nd order)}, and ascending
neurons~\mbox{(3rd order)} projecting towards the supraesophageal ganglion.
Previous authors have reported a marked increase in response heterogenity
within the population of ascending neurons compared to receptors and local
interneurons, which exhibit almost identical filter characteristics,
respectively~(\bcite{clemens2011efficient}). Based on these findings, the model
pathway can be divided into two distinct portions~(Fig.\,\ref{fig:pathway}c+d).
The pre-processing portion comprises the tympanal membrane, receptors, and
local interneurons. Due to the similar response properties within the
