Magnitude Modeling of Personalized HRTF Based on Ear Images and Anthropometric Measurements
In this paper, we propose a global personalized head-related transfer function (HRTF) method based on anthropometric measurements and ear images. The model consists of two sub-networks. The first is the VGG-Ear Model, which extracts features from the ear

Perceptually based head-related transfer function database optimization
In the context of binaural audio rendering, choosing the best head-related transfer function (HRTF) for an individual from large databases poses several problems. This study proposes a method to reduce the size of a given HRTF database. Participants, 45 in total, were asked to rate the quality of binaural synthesis for 46 HRTFs. The lack of reciprocity

Compression of Head-Related Transfer Function Based on Tucker and Tensor Train Decomposition
Head-related transfer function (HRTF) plays an important role in three-dimensional spatial sound system. However, the direct application of a large amount of original HRTF data would involve a great deal of computational burden, especially for high ...

Spatial grouping as a method to improve personalized head-related transfer function prediction [PDF]
The head-related transfer function (HRTF) characterizes the frequency response of the sound traveling path between a specific location and the ear. When it comes to estimating HRTFs by neural network models, angle-specific models greatly outperform ...

PRTFNet: HRTF Individualization for Accurate Spectral Cues Using a Compact PRTF
Spatial audio rendering relies on accurate localization perception, which requires individual head-related transfer functions (HRTFs). Previous methods based on deep neural networks (DNNs) for predicting HRTF magnitude spectra from pinna images used HRTF

A time domain binaural model based on spatial feature extraction for the head-related transfer function [PDF]
A complex-valued head-related transfer function (HRTF) can be represented as a real-valued head-related impulse response (HRIR). The interaural time and level cues of HRIRs are extracted to derive the binaural model and also to normalize each measured ...

Head-related transfer function measurements in a compartment fire
The Personal Alert Safety System (PASS) is an alarm signal device carried by firefighters to help rescuers locate and extricate downed firefighters. A fire creates temperature gradients and inhomogeneous time-varying temperature, density, and flow fields that modify the acoustic properties of a room.
