Abstract In this article the authors identify and analyse points of agreement disagreement between Michael Ayers Charles Travis, starting from their views on ‘things before us’. The then try to spell out what separates these philosophers in matters concerning perception, knowledge language. spite both being self-professed realists, equally critical conceptualism representationalism, Ayers’ empi...

I say (with many others): the world is a thing, the biggest thing, the mereological sum (or aggregate) of all things. Truth is determined by the distribution of fundamental, or perfectly natural, properties and relations over the parts of this biggest thing. For want of a better name, call this the thing theory.1 Some say instead: the world is a fact, the most inclusive fact, the conjunction (a...

Online collaborative activities provide a powerful platform for the collection of psychoacoustic data on the perception of audio and music from a very large numbers of subjects. Furthermore, these activities can be designed to simultaneously educate users about aspects of music information and acoustics, particularly for younger students in grades K-12. We have created prototype interactive act...

A method for the joint localization and orientation estimation of a directional sound source using distributed microphones is presented. By modeling the signal attenuation due to the microphone directivity, the source directivity, and the source-microphone distance, a multi-dimensional search over all possible sound source locations and orientations is performed. This sound source scene reconst...

We are interested in developing a system that learns to recognize individual sound sources in an auditory scene where multiple sources may be occurring simultaneously. We focus here on sound source recognition in music audio mixtures. Many researchers have made progress by using isolated training examples or very strongly labeled training data. We consider an alternative approach: the learner i...

We present a non-invasive attempt to indirectly measure the subglottal sound pressure. This quantity opens an additional acoustical path to observe the voiced sound source. The subglottal sound pressure contours of two phonation qualities, the modal phonation quality and the breathy phonation quality, are compared. The electroglottographic signal was recorded simultaneously as a well known refe...
