Acoustic Model Adaptation Using Piece-Wise Energy Decay Curve For Reverberant Environments
2012
Zenodo
Therefore, in this work we use a better model for creating the piece-wise energy decay curve (Pw-EDC) which approximates the decay of both reflections in a precise way. ...
ADAPTATION USING PIECE-WISE ENERGY DECAY CURVE In order to model the Pw-EDC, the boundaries of early and late reflections need to be defined. ...

Deriving content-specific measures of room acoustic perception using a binaural, nonlinear auditory model
2013
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Acousticians generally assess the acoustic qualities of a concert hall or any other room using impulse response-based measures such as the reverberation time, clarity index, and others. ...
These parameters are used to predict perceptual attributes related to the acoustic qualities of the room. ...
Accordingly, reflections in the impulse response with an energy below a decaying curve defined by this law contribute to the precedence effect (and therefore to ASW), and reflections with energy above ...
