A transient boundary element method model of Schroeder diffuser scattering using well mouth impedance (2008)
Journal Article
Hargreaves, J., & Cox, T. (2008). A transient boundary element method model of Schroeder diffuser scattering using well mouth impedance. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 124(5), 2942-2951. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.2982420

Room acoustic diffusers can be used to treat critical listening environments to improve sound quality. One popular class is Schroeder diffusers, which comprise wells of varying depth separated by thin fins. This paper concerns a new approach to ena...

Monaural room acoustic parameters from music and speech (2008)
Journal Article
Kendrick, P., Cox, T., Li, F., Zhang, Y., & Chambers, J. (2008). Monaural room acoustic parameters from music and speech. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 124(1), 278-287. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.2931960

This paper compares two methods for extracting room acoustic parameters from reverberated speech and music. An approach which uses statistical machine learning, previously developed for speech, is extended to work with music. For speech, reverberatio...

Lüke and power residue sequence diffusers (2008)
Journal Article
Dadiotis, K., Angus, J., & Cox, T. (2008). Lüke and power residue sequence diffusers. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 123(4), 2035-2042. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.2885761

Conventional Schroeder diffusers have been successfully used for many years. However, their frequency range is limited by the flat plate effect that occurs when all the wells radiate in phase. This occurs at harmonics of p times the design frequency... Read More about Lüke and power residue sequence diffusers.

A combined blind source separation and adaptive noise cancellation scheme with potential application in blind acoustic parameter extraction (2008)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., Chambers, J., Kendrick, P., Cox, T., & Li, F. (2008). A combined blind source separation and adaptive noise cancellation scheme with potential application in blind acoustic parameter extraction. Neurocomputing, 71(10-12), 2127-2139. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2007.09.019

Room acoustic parameters such as reverberation time (RT) can be extracted from passively received speech signals by certain ‘blind’ methods, thereby mitigating the need for good controlled excitation signals or prior information of the room geometry....

The photo‐survey research method : capturing life in the city (2008)
Journal Article
Moore, G., Croxford, B., Adams, M., Refaee, M., Cox, T., & Sharples, S. (2008). The photo‐survey research method : capturing life in the city. Visual Studies, 23(1), 50-62. https://doi.org/10.1080/14725860801908536

Recent promotion of city centre living within UK policy has led to a commensurate interest in city centre conditions and the opinions and experiences of the people who live there. An apposite, straightforward method to capture city centre residents'... Read More about The photo‐survey research method : capturing life in the city.
