The validation of acoustic environment simulator to determine the relationship between sound objects and soundscape (2017)
Journal Article
Sudarsono, A., Lam, Y., & Davies, W. (2017). The validation of acoustic environment simulator to determine the relationship between sound objects and soundscape. Acta acustica united with Acustica, 103(4), 657-667. https://doi.org/10.3813/AAA.919094

An acoustic environment simulator is a system that facilitates acoustic environment composition by controlling the parameters of sound objects (both background and sound events), allowing the user to compose and compare soundscapes against their expe...

Differences in sound perception are reflected by individual auditory fingerprints in musicians (2017)
Journal Article
Benner, J., Reinhardt, J., Hofmann, E., Stippich, C., Schneider, P., Blatow, M., & Davies, W. (2017). Differences in sound perception are reflected by individual auditory fingerprints in musicians. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 141(5), 3818-3818. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4988456

Musicians have been reported to show significant inter-Individual differences in elementary hearing functions, sound perception mode, musical instrument preference, performance style, as well as more complex musical abilities like absolute- and relat...

Influence of source location and temporal structure on spatial auditory saliency (2017)
Journal Article
Podwinska, Z., Fazenda, B., & Davies, W. (2017). Influence of source location and temporal structure on spatial auditory saliency. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 141(5), 3639-3639. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4987852

Hitherto, not many studies have dealt with spatial auditory saliency. Auditory attention studies concerned with spatial aspects generally concentrate on top-down selective or divided attention, e.g., where subjects are asked to attend to one source a...

A user-centered taxonomy of factors contributing to the listener experience of reproduced audio (2017)
Journal Article
Woodcock, J., Davies, W., & Cox, T. (2017). A user-centered taxonomy of factors contributing to the listener experience of reproduced audio. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 141(5), 3464-3464. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4987193

The traditional paradigm for the assessment of audio quality is that of a listener positioned in the geometric center of a standardized loudspeaker setup, fully attending to the reproduced sound scene. However, this is not how listeners generally int... Read More about A user-centered taxonomy of factors contributing to the listener experience of reproduced audio.

Clang, chitter, crunch : perceptual organisation of onomatopoeia (2017)
Journal Article
Bones, O., Davies, W., & Cox, T. (2017). Clang, chitter, crunch : perceptual organisation of onomatopoeia. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 141(5), 3694-3694. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4988048

A method has been developed that utilizes a sound-sorting and labeling procedure, with correspondence analysis of participant-generated descriptive terms, to elicit perceptual categories of sound. Unlike many other methods for identifying perceptual... Read More about Clang, chitter, crunch : perceptual organisation of onomatopoeia.

A cognitive framework for the categorisation of auditory objects in urban soundscapes (2017)
Journal Article
Woodcock, J., Davies, W., & Cox, T. (2017). A cognitive framework for the categorisation of auditory objects in urban soundscapes. Applied Acoustics, 121, 56-64. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2017.01.027

Categorisation is a fundamental cognitive process that plays a central role in everyday behaviour and action. Whereas previous studies have investigated the categorisation of isolated everyday sounds, this paper presents an experiment to investiga...
