This paper attempts to provide a state-of-the-art of sound source localization in robotics.
Noticeably, this context raises original constraints—eg embeddability, real time, broadband …

In this paper, the auditory model developed by Dau, Kollmeier, and Kohlrausch [(1997). J.
Acoust. Soc. Am. 102, 2892–2905] was used to simulate the perceptual similarity between …

This study examines the influence of an early lateral reflection on spatial perceptual
attributes and speech reception. To this aim, a diffuse reflection is compared with a specular …

Changing the balance between the early and late reflections in the impulse response affects
the clarity of speech, and also the spatial perception of the sound source is affected when …

Abstract Background Multiple Sclerosis (MS) pathology is likely to disrupt central auditory
pathways, thereby affecting an individual's ability to discriminate speech from noise. Despite …

This chapter outlines the problem of evaluating multichannel reproduction by example of the
wave-field synthesis method. This method is known for providing good localization of …

Spatial impulse response analysis techniques are commonly used in the field of acoustics,
as they help to characterise the interaction of sound with an enclosed environment. This …

Repeatability of head-related transfer function (HRTF) measurements is a critical issue in
intra-and inter-laboratory setups. In this paper, simulated perceptual variabilities of HRTFs …

Speech intelligibility in rooms is assumed to depend on the amount of reverberation, and on
the distribution of sound energy in the impulse response between early and later reflections …

An important application of a head and torso simulator is to obtain head-related transfer
functions (HRTFs) because it eliminates the methodological challenges inherent in human …
