Perception of head-position-dependent variations in interaural cross-correlation coefficient
نویسندگان
چکیده
Experiments were undertaken to elicit the perceived effects of head-position-dependent variations in the interaural cross-correlation coefficient of a range of signals. A graphical elicitation experiment showed that the variations in the IACC strongly affected the perceived width and depth of the reverberant environment, as well as the perceived width and distance of the sound source. A verbal experiment gave similar results, and also indicated that the headposition-dependent IACC variations caused changes in the perceived spaciousness and envelopment of the stimuli.

Development of a head-movement-aware signal capture system for the prediction of acoustical spatial impression
This research introduces a novel technique for capturing binaural signals for objective evaluation of spatial impression; the technique allows for simulation of the head movement that is typical in a range of listening activities. A subjective listening test showed that the amount of head movement made was larger when listeners were rating perceived source width and envelopment than when rating...
متن کاملDevelopment of the Interaural Cross-Correlation Coefficient Into a More Complete Auditory Width Prediction Model
Auditory width measurements based on the interaural crosscorrelation coefficient (IACC) are often used in the field of concert hall acoustics. However, there are a number of problems with such measurements, including large variations around the centre of a room and a limited range of values at low frequencies. This paper explores how some of these problems can be solved by applying the IACC in ...
متن کاملHead-Movement-Aware Signal Capture for Evaluation of Spatial Acoustics
This research incorporates the nature of head movement made in listening activities, into the development of a quasi-binaural acoustical measurement technique for the evaluation of spatial impression. A listening test was conducted where head movements were tracked whilst the subjects rated the perceived source width, envelopment, source direction and timbre of a number of stimuli. It was found...
متن کاملCreation and verification of a controlled experimental stimulus for investigating selected perceived spatial attributes
In order to undertake controlled investigations into perceptual effects that relate to the interaural cross-correlation coefficient, experiment stimuli that meet a tight set of criteria are required. The requirements of each stimulus are that it is narrow band, normally has a constant cross-correlation coefficient over time, and can be altered to cover the full range of values of cross-correlat...
متن کاملObjective Measurement of Perceived Auditory Quality in Multi-channel Audio Compression Coding Systems
Objective quality assessment methods have been used widely for evaluation of audio coding systems. However, even though many different competing multi-channel audio compression coding systems are being developed, most current quality assessment methods only predict results for monaural or stereo signals. In this paper, a prediction method is introduced that can be used for multi-channel audio c...
