The cadenza woodwind dataset: Synthesised quartets for music information retrieval and machine learning. (2024)
Journal Article

This paper presents the Cadenza Woodwind Dataset. This publicly available data is synthesised audio for woodwind quartets including renderings of each instrument in isolation. The data was created to be used as training data within Cadenza's second o...

Dataset of British English speech recordings for psychoacoustics and speech processing research : the Clarity Speech Corpus (2022)
Journal Article

This paper presents the Clarity Speech Corpus, a publicly available, forty speaker British English speech dataset. The corpus was created for the purpose of running listening tests to gauge speech intelligibility and quality in the Clarity Project, w...

A set of equations for numerically calculating the interaural level difference in the horizontal plane (2021)
Journal Article
Akeroyd, M. A., Firth, J., Graetzer, S., & Smith, S. (2021). A set of equations for numerically calculating the interaural level difference in the horizontal plane. JASA Express Letters, 1(4), 044402. https://doi.org/10.1121/10.0004261

The variation of interaural level difference (ILD) with direction and frequency is particularly complex and convoluted. The purpose of this work was to determine a set of parametric equations that can be used to calculate ILDs continuously at any val...

Intelligibility prediction for speech mixed with white Gaussian noise at low signal-to-noise ratios (2021)
Journal Article
Graetzer, S., & Hopkins, C. (2021). Intelligibility prediction for speech mixed with white Gaussian noise at low signal-to-noise ratios. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 149(2), 1346-1362. https://doi.org/10.1121/10.0003557

The effect of additive white Gaussian noise and high-pass filtering on speech intelligibility at signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) from -26 to 0 dB was evaluated using British English talkers and normal hearing listeners. SNRs below -10 dB were considere... Read More about Intelligibility prediction for speech mixed with white Gaussian noise at low signal-to-noise ratios.
