Acoustic based safety emergency vehicle detection for intelligent transport systems
Presentation / Conference
Fazenda, B., Atmoko, H., Gu, F., Guan, L., & Ball, A. Acoustic based safety emergency vehicle detection for intelligent transport systems. Presented at ICROS-SICE International Joint Conference 2009, Fukuoka, Japan

A system has been investigated for the detection of incoming direction of an emergency vehicle. Acoustic detection methods based on a cross microphone array have been implemented. It is shown that source detection based on time delay estimation outpe... Read More about Acoustic based safety emergency vehicle detection for intelligent transport systems.

The psychoacoustic effects of stimuli plausibility on headphone externalisation
Presentation / Conference
Fazenda, B., & Newton, J. The psychoacoustic effects of stimuli plausibility on headphone externalisation. Presented at Reproduced Sound 2014, NEC, Birmingham

In the world we live in, sound events are typically associated with a physical event happening within our surroundings. In this case, the event carries a degree of plausibility in that it exists in the physical world and should therefore have associa...

Evaluation and modelling of perceived audio quality in popular music, towards intelligent music production
Thesis
Wilson, A. Evaluation and modelling of perceived audio quality in popular music, towards intelligent music production. (Thesis). University of Salford

This thesis addresses three fundamental questions: What is mixing? What makes a high-quality mix? How can high-quality mixes be automatically generated? While these may seem essential to the very foundations of intelligent music production, this thes...
