Sound source localization from a binaural input is a challenging problem, particularly when
multiple sources are active simultaneously and reverberation or background noise are …

Increase in the number of older people due to demographic changes poses great
challenges to the social healthcare systems both in the Western and as well as in the …

We propose an approach to binaural detection, localization and segregation of speech
based on pitch and azimuth cues. We formulate the problem as a search through a …

A novel method is proposed for generic target tracking by audio measurements from a
microphone array. To cope with noisy environments characterized by persistent and high …

An acoustic scene may consist of several contributions, namely a number of sound sources,
point or diffuse ones, in particular human speakers, noise sources, reverberation effects due …

In this paper, a method for multi-channel pitch estimation is proposed. The method is a
maximum likelihood estimator and is based on a parametric model where the signals in the …

This paper presents an enhancement of a recently proposed method of joint pitch and
direction of arrival extraction for speaker localization. We propose a new pre-processing …

Recently, a method for joint extraction of pitch and location information from two-channel
recordings has been introduced. This framework offers a new, natural representation of all …

Why are humans so art-prone, why do we love to sing, dance, tell stories, create visual
images and beautify our environment? In the last two decades, a number of authors have …

The problem of segregating a sound source of interest from an acoustic background has
been extensively studied due to applications in hearing prostheses, robust speech/speaker …
