Over the past decade, audio for virtual, augmented and mixed reality has become a critical
part of delivering a truly immersive sound experience. With headphones being the most …

In this work we present a framework for the estimation of the Cartesian position of stationary
sound sources in reverberant environments and under the influence of heavy clutter based …

The human ability to localize sound-source direction using just two receivers is a complex
process of direction inference from spectral cues of sound arriving at the ears. While these …

Methods Twelve normal-hearing listeners aged 18–25 years participated in the study. The
study was conducted in three phases including pretraining, training, and posttraining phase …

We propose a novel method for full-sphere binaural sound source localization that is
designed to be robust to real world recording conditions. A mask is proposed that is …

A binaural sound source localization method is proposed that uses interaural and spectral
cues for localization of sound sources with any direction of arrival on the full-sphere. The …

From a machine learning perspective, the human ability localize sounds can be modeled as
a non-parametric and non-linear regression problem between binaural spectral features of …

Binaural recording technology offers an inexpensive, portable solution for spatial audio
capture. In this paper, a full-sphere 2D localization method is proposed which utilizes the …

In perceptual-based techniques for individualization of head-related transfer functions
(HRTFs), subjects tune some parameters for several target directions until they achieve an …

With the evolution of smart headphones, hearables, and hearing aids, there is a need for
technologies to improve situational awareness. The device needs to constantly monitor the …
