Experimental assessment of active electroacoustic absorbers for broadband room modes damping

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Sami Driss Karkar, Véronique Adam

Active electroacoustic absorbers are membrane absorbers actuated, through a feedback control loop and an electromechanical driver, so as to present optimal sound absorption on a broadband range around the membrane resonance. Taking advantage of the low res ...

Enabling Speech Applications using Ad Hoc Microphone Arrays

Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

Microphone arrays are central players in hands-free speech interface applications. The main duty of a microphone array is capturing distant-talking speech with high quality. A microphone array can acquire the desired speech signals selectively by leading t ...

Through the Hourglass: A Faithful Audiovisual Reconstruction of the Old Montreux Casino

Martin Vetterli

In architecture, space is traditionally understood as a cumulus of forms, colors and textures that form a conceived area, or-in other words-architectural space design is mainly achieved by following visual concepts. The human experience of space, however, ...

Electroacoustic absorption: towards room equalization in the low-frequency range

Hervé Lissek

The occurrence of standing waves in room dramatically affects the sound rendering in the low-frequency range ([20-200 Hz]), and solutions of the state-of-the-art are incapable to damp such modes over the whole low-frequency band. This talk will present a n ...

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 ...
