Estimates of perceived spatial quality across the listening area
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a computational model for the prediction of perceived spatial quality for reproduced sound at arbitrary locations in the listening area. The model is specifically designed to evaluate distortions in the spatial domain such as changes in source location, width and envelopment. Maps of perceived spatial quality across the listening area are presented from our initial results.

Evaluation of sound field synthesis techniques with a binaural auditory model
Wave field synthesis and Ambisonics strive to reconstruct a sound field within a listening area using the interference of loudspeaker signals. Due to the spatial sampling, an error-free reconstruction is not achieved within the entire listening area and consequently, the perceived quality of the reproduction may be impaired. Specifically, sound events may be localized incorrectly and the indivi...
متن کاملListening Pre-tasks in Motivational and Cognitive Strategies Instruction and Quality of Subjective Experience: EFL Learners’ Perspectives
EFL learners may advocate the desire to have a fulfilling experience while doing tasks rather than focus solely on finishing them. However, learners' perspectives have been virtually ignored in the classroom task implementation. Thus, the current study attempted to explore the perceptions of Iranian EFL learners towards listening pre-tasks in motivational and cognitive strategies instruction a...
متن کاملExamining the Association between T-unit and Pausing Length on the EFL Perception of Listening Comprehension
Listening taking over half of the learners’ time and effort (Nunan, 1998), forms a basis for acquiring much of a language. There are factors affecting listening comprehension and its perception, such as the speech rate, phonological properties of the text, the quality of the recording, the learners’ anxiety, and listening comprehension strategies (Goh, 2000; Hamouda, 2013). At the Iran Language...
متن کاملQESTRAL (Part 4): Test signals, combining metrics and the prediction of overall spatial quality
The QESTRAL project has developed an artificial listener that compares the perceived quality of a spatial audio reproduction to a reference reproduction. Test signals designed to identify distortions in both the foreground and background audio streams are created for both the reference and the impaired reproduction systems. Metrics are calculated from these test signals and are then combined us...
متن کاملAssessment of Spatial Structure of Groundwater Quality Variables Based on the Geostatistical Simulation
Our main objective in the present study was to assess the spatial variation of chemical and physical water properties. Prior to the design of groundwater quality monitoring networks, it is essential to investigate the spatial structure of the groundwater quality variables. A case study is presented which used ground water quality observations from groundwater domestic wells in the Dameghan, Ira...
