  • The Science of String Instruments

    Edited by Thomas D. Rossing ...
    Thomas D. Rossing String instruments are found in almost all musical cultures. Bowed string instruments form the backbone of symphony orchestras, and they are used widely as solo inst- ments and in chamber music as well. Guitars are used universally in pop music as well as in classical music. The piano is probably the most versatile of all musical inst- ments, used widely not only in ensemble with ... Read more

  • Impact of Littoral Environmental Variability on Acoustic Predictions and Sonar Performance

    Edited by Nicholas G. Pace, Finn B. Jensen ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The limiting influence of the environment on sonar has long been recognised as a major challenge to science and technology. As the area of interest shifts towards the lit toral, environmental influences become dominant both in time and space. The manyfold challenges encompass prediction, measurement, assessment and adaptive responses to maximize the effectiveness of systems. Although MCM and ASW ... Read more

  • Neurally Based Measurement and Evaluation of Environmental Noise

    by Yoshiharu Soeta, Yoichi Ando ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book deals with methods of measurement and evaluation of environmental noise based on an auditory neural and brain-oriented model. The model consists of the autocorrelation function (ACF) and the interaural cross-correlation function (IACF) mechanisms for signals arriving at the two ear entrances. Even when the sound pressure level of a noise is only about 35 dBA, people may feel annoyed due ... Read more

  • Auditory and Visual Sensations

    by Peter Cariani, Yoichi Ando ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Ando establishes a theory of subjective preference of the sound field in a concert hall, based on preference theory with a model of human auditory-brain system. The model uses the autocorrelation function and the interaural crosscorrelation function for signals arriving at two ear entrances and considers the specialization of human cerebral hemispheres. The theory may be applied to describe ... Read more

  • Adaptive Identification of Acoustic Multichannel Systems Using Sparse Representations

    by Karim Helwani ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book treats the topic of extending the adaptive filtering theory in the context of massive multichannel systems by taking into account a priori knowledge of the underlying system or signal. The starting point is exploiting the sparseness in acoustic multichannel system in order to solve the non-uniqueness problem with an efficient algorithm for adaptive filtering that does not require any ...
