Perceptual audio evaluation of media device orchestration using the multi-stimulus ideal profile method (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Wilson, A., Cox, T., Zacharov, N., & Pike, C. (2018, October). Perceptual audio evaluation of media device orchestration using the multi-stimulus ideal profile method. Presented at Audio Engineering Society 145th Convention, New York, USA

The evaluation of object-based audio reproduction methods in a real-world context remains a challenge as it is difficult to separate the effects of the reproduction system from the effects of the audio mix rendered for that system. This is often comp... Read More about Perceptual audio evaluation of media device orchestration using the multi-stimulus ideal profile method.

Improving intelligibility prediction under informational masking using an auditory saliency model (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Tang, Y., & Cox, T. (2018, September). Improving intelligibility prediction under informational masking using an auditory saliency model. Presented at International Conference on Digital Audio Effects, Aveiro, Portugal

The reduction of speech intelligibility in noise is usually dominated by energetic masking (EM) and informational masking (IM). Most state-of-the-art objective intelligibility measures (OIM) estimate intelligibility by quantifying EM. Few measures m...

Speech-to-screen : spatial separation of dialogue from noise towards improved speech intelligibility for the small screen (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Demonte, P., Tang, Y., Hughes, R., Cox, T., Fazenda, B., & Shirley, B. (2018, May). Speech-to-screen : spatial separation of dialogue from noise towards improved speech intelligibility for the small screen. Presented at 144th International Pro Audio Convention (AES Milan 2018), Milan, Italy

Can externalizing dialogue when in the presence of stereo background noise improve speech intelligibility? This has been investigated for audio over headphones using head-tracking in order to explore potential future developments for small-screen dev...
