Comparison of Two Methods of Soundscape Evaluation
2019 2nd International Colloquium on Smart Grid Metrology (SMAGRIMET), 2019This paper is focused on the soundscape as a cause of the participant’s mood state. Part of the participants used the Audio Augmented Reality (AAR) soundscape with audio guide, and the other part had a paper from which they read information about the history of locality in which the research took place. The mood was expressed in two dimensions: valence

Evaluation of urban soundscape by future architects
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004Urban soundscape design has drawn great attention along with the ever increasing urban noise level. Previous research shows that people with different social and demographic backgrounds may have different sound preferences in urban environment. For example, gender, age, and cultural background have been proved to affect peoples soundscape evaluation ...

Psychoacoustical evaluation of natural and urban sounds in soundscapes
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013Among various sounds in the environment, natural sounds, such as water sounds and birdsongs, have proven to be highly preferred by humans, but the reasons for these preferences have not been thoroughly researched. This paper explores differences between various natural and urban environmental sounds from the viewpoint of objective measures, especially ...

Science of The Total Environment, 2014
To ensure appropriate soundscape management in urban environments, the urban-planning authorities need a range of tools that enable such a task to be performed. An essential step during the management of urban areas from a sound standpoint should be the evaluation of the soundscape in such an area.

Soundscape evaluation on Mississippi State University campus
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2014The term soundscape, used first time at the end of 1970s, refers to the sum of the sounds which can be heard and perceived by people in a specific environment (Schafer). The concept of soundscape has recently paid attention to planning and design disciplines where the focus point is commonly placed on the visual, rather than the acoustic aspect.

Instrument for Soundscape Recognition, Identification and Evaluation (ISRIE): Signal Classification
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008ISRIE is a collaborative project between the universities of York and Newcastle and ISVR in Southampton. The work being undertaken at York is in its second year and focuses on signal separation and classification. Developing novel methods for classifying urban and other sounds into distinct categories (such as transportation, industrial, human, animal,

Soundscape evaluations in two critical healthcare settings with different designs
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2011Intensive care units (ICUs) have important but challenging sound environments. Alarms and equipment generate high levels of noise and ICUs are typically designed with hard surfaces. A poor sound environment can add to stress and make auditory tasks more difficult for clinicians.

Soundscape approach to evaluate outdoor acoustic spaces in nature
Noise Control Engineering Journal, 2015This study aims to evaluate the acoustical quality of outdoor acoustic spaces in nature based on soundscape approach. Acoustic taxonomy of sonic events, acoustic itineraries and acoustic calendars were studied at a national park. Long time noise level measurements were performed.

Psychoacoustic evaluation of soundscapes by means of repeated measurements
INTER-NOISE and NOISE-CON Congress and Conference Proceedings, 2021Research on soundscape explore facets of how acoustic environments affect human perception in context. By means of psychoacoustic parameters the sound character of acoustic environments can be described comprehensively as those parameters play an important role with respect to manifold auditory sensations. Although there seems to be a consensus of the
