Planarity-based sound field optimization for multi-listener spatial audio [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Planarity panning (PP) and planarity control (PC) have previously been shown to be efficient methods for focusing directional sound energy into listening zones. In this paper, we consider sound field control for two listeners.

Dereverberation in the spatial audio coding domain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
S.1079-1087Spatial audio coding techniques are fundamental for recording, coding and rendering spatial sound. Especially in teleconferencing, spatial sound reproduction helps in making a conversation feel more natural reducing the listening effort ...

Essential, Yet Precarious, Mistreated, Sick and Medicalized: A Sequential Explanatory Mixed‐Methods Study on Homecare Aides in Spain

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Homecare aides (HCAs) are professional non‐family caregivers, who support dependent individuals to live at home with dignity; yet in Spain they remain understudied and vulnerable, often facing precarious working conditions. We aimed to characterize HCAs’ employment, living conditions, health, and exposure to workplace violence and ...

“It's Not Deterministic and It Will Never Be Deterministic”: A Qualitative Study on Stakeholder Perspectives of Polygenic Risk Score Testing for Post‐Traumatic Stress Disorder

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) causes significant mental and physical distress, yet only a small subset of individuals exposed to trauma develop the disorder. Scientists and clinicians are still unable to predict who will get the disorder or how it will manifest.

Spatial audio and spatial audio-visual learning

open access: yes
As humans, we extensively depend on multimodal signals to perceive, interact with, and analyze our surrounding 3D spatial environment, so as to accomplish various complex tasks. Amongst all our multimodal senses, sound and vision are the two most ubiquitous signals in real world scenarios.

Exploring Audiovisual Support Systems for In-Car Multiparty Conferencing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Calling while driving poses a severe safety risk. When more than two people are involved in a call - a conference call - this risk increases even more. Intelligent vehicles could offer support systems that ease the cognitive burden of such a multiparty ...

Owning Home, Finding Belonging: Relational Meanings of Homeownership for Migrant Healthcare Workers in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Migrant healthcare workers in Australia find themselves at the centre of three intersecting concerns, often presented as ‘crises’ in contemporary discourse: the ‘care crisis’, the ‘housing crisis’ and the ‘migration crisis.’ Yet their own perspectives on these issues are rarely foregrounded. This paper explores the role of homeownership in the

Speech Intelligibility versus Congruency: User Preferences of the Acoustics of Virtual Reality Game Spaces

open access: yesVirtual Worlds
3D audio spatializers for Virtual Reality (VR) can use the acoustic properties of the surfaces of a visualised game space to calculate a matching reverb.

Wavelet-based spatial audio framework

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
Ambisonics is a complete theory for spatial audio whose building blocks are the spherical harmonics. Some of the drawbacks of low order Ambisonics, like poor source directivity and small sweet-spot, are directly related to the properties of spherical harmonics. In this thesis we illustrate a novel spatial audio framework similar in spirit to Ambisonics
