Frequency Estimation of the First Pinna Notch in Head-Related Transfer Functions with a Linear Anthropometric Model

Authors: Simone Spagnol, Federico Avanzini in: 18th International Conference on Digital Audio Effects (DAFx-15), Trondheim, 2015 Abstract: The relation between anthropometric parameters and Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) features, especially those due to the pinna, are not fully understood yet. In this paper we apply signal processing techniques to extract the frequencies of the main pinna notches (known as N1,… Continue Reading Frequency Estimation of the First Pinna Notch in Head-Related Transfer Functions with a Linear Anthropometric Model

Relative Auditory Distance Discrimination with Virtual Nearby Sound Sources

Authors: Simone Spagnol, Erica Tavazzi in: 18th International Conference on Digital Audio Effects (DAFx-15), Trondheim, 2015 Abstract: In this paper a psychophysical experiment targeted at exploring relative distance discrimination thresholds with binaurally rendered virtual sound sources in the near field is described. Pairs of virtual sources are spatialized around 6 different spatial locations (2 directions × 3 reference distances)… Continue Reading Relative Auditory Distance Discrimination with Virtual Nearby Sound Sources
