Stress Detection And Alleviation Via Electrodermal Activity And Generative Music (2023)
Thesis
Corradine, C. (2023). Stress Detection And Alleviation Via Electrodermal Activity And Generative Music. (Thesis). University of Salford

Accurate psychological stress detection systems have been created using a variety of methodologies and can provide users with real-time stress monitoring. Such systems can aid with providing early intervention and therapies for alleviation on order t... Read More about Stress Detection And Alleviation Via Electrodermal Activity And Generative Music.

Spatial aspects of auditory salience (2020)
Thesis
Podwinska, Z. Spatial aspects of auditory salience. (Thesis). University of Salford

Models of auditory salience aim to predict which sounds attract people’s attention, and their proposed applications range from soundscape design to machine listening systems and object-based broadcasting. A few different types of models have been pro... Read More about Spatial aspects of auditory salience.

Modelling the perception of percussive low frequency instruments in rooms (2020)
Thesis
Howard, M. Modelling the perception of percussive low frequency instruments in rooms. (Dissertation). University of Salford

Throughout the study of room acoustics, adverse effects and methods of controlling and mitigating modal behaviour are a well researched topic. However, despite this, a gap between objective metrics and subjective results is still prevalent, thus re...

Personality and cognitive factors in the assessment of multimodal stimuli in immersive virtual environments (2019)
Thesis
Bailey, J. Personality and cognitive factors in the assessment of multimodal stimuli in immersive virtual environments. (Thesis). University of Salford

Literature in the study of human response to immersive virtual reality systems often deals with the phenomenon of presence. It can be shown that audio and imagery with spatial information can interact to affect presence in users of immersive virtual...

From source to brain : modelling sound propagation and localisation in rooms (2013)
Thesis
Sheaffer, J. From source to brain : modelling sound propagation and localisation in rooms. (Thesis). University of Salford

Human localisation of sound in enclosed spaces is a cross-disciplinary research topic, with important applications in auditory science, room acoustics, spatial audio and telecommunications. By combining an accelerated model of $3$D sound propagation... Read More about From source to brain : modelling sound propagation and localisation in rooms.

Perception of room modes in critical listening spaces (2004)
Thesis
Fazenda, B. Perception of room modes in critical listening spaces. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

Room modes are a recognised problem in small critical listening rooms and are known to cause colouration of sound reproduced within them. Investigations on the causes and solutions for this problem have been carried out for some time. Interest in th... Read More about Perception of room modes in critical listening spaces.

Binaural sound source localization using machine learning with spiking neural networks features extraction
Thesis
Al-abboodi, H. (in press). Binaural sound source localization using machine learning with spiking neural networks features extraction. (Thesis). University of Salford

Human and animal binaural hearing systems are able take advantage of a variety of cues to localise sound-sources in a 3D space using only two sensors. This work presents a bionic system that utilises aspects of binaural hearing in an automated source...

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...

The use of sound intensity for characterisation of reflected energy in small rooms
Thesis
Romero Perez, J. The use of sound intensity for characterisation of reflected energy in small rooms. (Thesis). University of Salford

The sound field in rooms of small dimensions used for music reproduction is characteristically different from that found in larger rooms for music performance such as auditoria. Key differences between small critical listening spaces and large audi... Read More about The use of sound intensity for characterisation of reflected energy in small rooms.

Assessing the quality of low frequency audio reproduction in critical listening spaces
Thesis
Stephenson, M. Assessing the quality of low frequency audio reproduction in critical listening spaces. (Thesis). University of Salford

The quality of low frequency audio reproduction in small spaces has always been problematic. For some time, methods have been suggested in order to optimise this reproduction. Many such methods have been based upon objective metrics which remain unpr... Read More about Assessing the quality of low frequency audio reproduction in critical listening spaces.
