Massively parallel nodal discontinous Galerkin finite element method simulator for room acoustics

We present a massively parallel and scalable nodal discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (DGFEM) solver for the time-domain linearized acoustic wave equations. The solver is implemented using the libParanumal finite element framework with extensions ...

Corona discharge actuator as an active sound absorber under normal and oblique incidence

Hervé Lissek, Stanislav Sergeev, Thomas Humbert

In the majority of active sound absorbing systems, a conventional electrodynamic loudspeaker is used as a controlled source. However, particular situations may require an actuator that is more resistant to harsh environments, adjustable in shape, and light ...

Improving sound absorption through nonlinear active electroacoustic resonators

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Xinxin Guo

Absorbing airborne noise at frequencies below 300 Hz is a particularly vexing problem due to the absence of natural sound absorbing materials at these frequencies. The prevailing solution for low-frequency sound absorption is the use of passive narrow-band ...

Joint estimation of RETF vector and power spectral densities for speech enhancement based on alternating least squares

Ina Kodrasi

The multi-channel Wiener filter (MWF) is a well-known multi-microphone speech enhancement technique, aiming at improving the quality of the recorded speech signals in noisy and reverberant environments. Assuming that reverberation and ambient noise can be ...

Wave-conversion active liner based on generalized Snell-Descartes law

Hervé Lissek

The Cremer’s impedance theoretical framework has been used for years to optimally design acousticliners for the aeronautic industry, such as honeycomb liners. This passive mean of sound absorption,which consists in rather thin (a few centimeters) honeycomb ...

Design of Remote Quiet Zones Using Spot-Type Sound Reducers

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Thomas Laurence

This paper presents a local control approach to generate remote quiet zones. To deal with situations where global control can hardly be achieved, it is proposed to use an arrangement of spot-type sound reducers as originally suggested by Olson and May. Ass ...

Sensitivity to an Illusion of Sound Location in Human Auditory Cortex

Human listeners place greater weight on the beginning of a sound compared to the middle or end when determining sound location, creating an auditory illusion known as the Franssen effect. Here, we exploited that effect to test whether human auditory cortex ...

Binary Sparse Coding of Convolutive Mixtures for Sound Localization and Separation via Spatialization

Hervé Bourlard, Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

We propose a sparse coding approach to address the problem of source-sensor localization and speech reconstruction. This approach relies on designing a dictionary of spatialized signals by projecting the microphone array recordings into the array manifolds ...

From Acoustic Room Reconstruction to SLAM

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic

Recent works on reconstruction of room geometry from echoes assume that the geometry of the sensor array is known. In this paper, we show that such an assumption is not essential; echoes provide sufficient clues to reconstruct the room’s and the array’s ge ...

Spatial Sound Localization via Multipath Euclidean Distance Matrix Recovery

Hervé Bourlard, Philip Neil Garner, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

A novel localization approach is proposed in order to find the position of an individual source using recordings of a single microphone in a reverberant enclosure. The multipath propagation is modeled by multiple virtual microphones as images of the actual ...
