Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 2022 We suggest that the influence of biology in ‘biologically inspired robotics’ can be embraced at a deeper level than is typical, if we adopt an enactive approach that moves the focus of interest from how problems are solved to how problems emerge in the ...

Design of robust two-dimensional polynomial beamformers as a convex optimization problem with application to robot audition [PDF]
IEEE Workshop on Applications of Signal Processing to Audio and Acoustics, 2017 We propose a robust two-dimensional polynomial beamformer design method, formulated as a convex optimization problem, which allows for flexible steering of a previously proposed data-independent robust beamformer in both azimuth and elevation direction ...

HRTF-based two-dimensional robust least-squares frequency-invariant beamformer design for robot audition [PDF]
Joint Workshop on Hands-free Speech Communication and Microphone Arrays, 2016 In this work, we propose a two-dimensional Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF)-based robust beamformer design for robot audition, which allows for explicit control of the beamformer response for the entire three-dimensional sound field surrounding a ...
