Soundscape categorization on the basis of objective acoustical parameters
TL;DR: In this paper, a soundscape assessment method that is suitable for the automatic categorization of binaurally recorded sound in urban public places is presented, based on an automatic clustering algorithm based on multi-parameter analysis by 13 acoustical parameters used as similarity measures, on a large set of sound recordings.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Healthy, Energy-Efficient and Comfortable Indoor Environment, a Review
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the couplings between building design, indoor environmental quality and occupant behavior is presented, focusing on defining the limits of adaptation on the three aforementioned levels to ensure the energy efficiency of the whole system and healthy environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Support is provided for the claim that ambient sound influences taste judgments, and the approach outlined here may help researchers and experience designers to obtain more profound effects of the auditory or multisensory atmosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using sound-taste correspondences to enhance the subjective value of tasting experiences.

TL;DR: Investigating whether contextual sound would enhance the subjective value of a tasting experience in a chocolate shop revealed that not only did the customers report having a significantly better tasting experience when the sounds were presented as part of the food’s identity, but they were also willing to pay significantly more for the experience.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calculating the Optimum Reverberation Time and Absorption Coefficient for Good Speech Intelligibility in Classroom Design Using U50
Lau Nijs,Monika Rychtarikova +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a predictive model for speech intelligibility is proposed based on objective acoustical values, i.e., the reverberation time RT, signal-to-noise ratio SN, and the relative proportions of sound arriving early and late at the listener.
