A comparison of feedback cues for enhancing pointing efficiency in interaction with spatial audio displays [PDF]
An empirical study that compared six different feedback cue types to enhance pointing efficiency in deictic spatial audio displays is presented. Participants were asked to select a sound using a physical pointing gesture, with the help of a loudness cue,

A Joint Minimax Approach for Binaural Rendering of Audio Through Loudspeakers [PDF]
This paper describes a method for jointly designing the crosstalk cancellation filters to facilitate binaural rendering of audio through loudspeakers. The minimax criterion is used to design the immersive audio rendering filters having finite impulse responses for a single listener using loudspeakers.

Reaching nearby sources: Comparison between real and virtual sound and visual targets
Sound localization studies over the past century have predominantly been concerned with directional accuracy for far-field sources. Few studies have examined the condition of near-field sources and distance perception.

Improving elevation perception with a tool for image-guided head-related transfer function selection [PDF]
This paper proposes an image-guided HRTF selection procedure that exploits the relation between features of the pinna shape and HRTF notches. Using a 2D image of a subject's pinna, the procedure selects from a database the HRTF set that best fits the ...
