Issues for computer modelling of room acoustics in non-concert hall settings [PDF]
The basic principle of common room acoustics computer models is the energy-based geometrical room acoustics theory. The energy-based calculation relies on the averaging effect provided when there are many reflections from many different directions, which

Bayesian Inference for Acoustic Direction of Arrival Analysis Using Spherical Harmonics
This work applies two levels of inference within a Bayesian framework to accomplish estimation of the directions of arrivals (DoAs) of sound sources. The sensing modality is a spherical microphone array based on spherical harmonics beamforming.
