Wind can induce noise on microphones, causing problems for users of hearing aids and for those making recordings outdoors. Perceptual tests in the laboratory and via the Internet were carried out to understand what features of wind noise are importan...

Categorisation of distortion profiles in relation to audio quality (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Wilson, A., & Fazenda, B. (2014, September). Categorisation of distortion profiles in relation to audio quality. Presented at 17th International Conference on Digital Audio Effects (DAFx-14), Erlangen, Germany

Since digital audio is encoded as discrete samples of the audio waveform, much can be said about a recording by the statistical properties of these samples. In this paper, a dataset of CD audio samples is analysed; the probability mass function of ea... Read More about Categorisation of distortion profiles in relation to audio quality.

Automatic detection of microphone handling noise (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Kendrick, P., Cox, T., Li, F., Fazenda, B., & Jackson, I. (2014, May). Automatic detection of microphone handling noise. Presented at 4th International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing, Copenhagen, Denmark

Microphone handling noise is a common problem with user generated content. It can occur when the operator inadvertently knocks or brushes a recording device. Handling noise may be impulsive, where a microphone is knocked, or a more sustained rubbi... Read More about Automatic detection of microphone handling noise.

Physical and numerical constraints in source modeling for finite difference simulation of room acoustics (2014)
Journal Article
Sheaffer, J., van Walstijn, M., & Fazenda, B. (2014). Physical and numerical constraints in source modeling for finite difference simulation of room acoustics. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 135(1), 251-261. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4836355

In finite difference time domain simulation of room acoustics, source functions are subject to various constraints. These depend on the way sources are injected into the grid and on the chosen parameters of the numerical scheme being used. This paper...
