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.

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...
