DESCRIPTION:
This book facilitates the reader’s understanding and development of speech and audio techniques based on our knowledge of the auditory perceptual mechanisms by introducing the physical, signal-processing and psychophysical background to communication acoustics. It then provides a detailed explanation of sound technologies where a human listener is involved, including audio and speech techniques, sound quality measurement, hearing aids and audiology.Key features:Explains perceptually-based audio: the authors take a detailed but acce
Thus, when developing techniques in communication acoustics, such as in speech, audio and aided hearing, it is important to understand the time–frequency–space resolution of hearing.This book facilitates the reader’s understanding and development of speech and audio techniques based on our knowledge of the auditory perceptual mechanisms by introducing the physical, signal-processing and psychophysical background to communication acoustics. From the Back CoverIn communication acoustics, the communication channel consists of a sound source, a channel (acoustic and/or electric) and finally the receiver: the human auditory system, a complex and intricate system that shapes the way sound is heard. It then provides a detailed explanation of sound technologies where a human listener is involved, including audio and speech techniques, sound qual
"An excellent book on audio engineering" according to Amazon Customer. An excellent book on audio engineering, highly recommend for engineering students who want to learn audio and speech processing in an easy-to-follow approach. The authors present an excellent overviews and balance of many state of the art technologies in audio and speech, and students can benefit greatly from the companion web page.
