Acoustic scene analysis involves studying and understanding the sound environment within a given space or setting. It encompasses the identification, measurement, and analysis of various acoustic elements such as reverberation, reflections, sound decay, and spatial distribution of sound sources. The aim is to comprehensively grasp the acoustic characteristics of an environment, enabling better optimization of auditory conditions for improved sound quality and clarity in that space.
Focus: Developing an acoustic scene analysis system for building environments
Goal: Understand and optimize auditory conditions for ideal acoustic quality in residential, commercial, or public venues
Approach: Combining field measurements and analytical modeling for a comprehensive understanding of the acoustic environment, enabling informed decisions to improve sound quality and clarity in architectural spaces.
