TLDR
In this paper, the fundamental ideas of the binaural recording technique are discussed and a model is given that describes the sound transmission from a source in a free field, through the external ear to the eardrum.

The effect of pinna filtering in binaural transfer functions on externalization in a reverberant environment

TL;DR: This study provides guidance for improving externalization perception in binaural synthesis by finding that pinna filtering in the direct parts is helpful for externalization while pinna filtered parts produces less externalized sound images.

Relevance of stimuli and test environment in the perceptual evaluation of car audio systems

TL;DR: The results showed listener preferences concerning the music excerpts used as well as distinct interaction effects between the factors song and audio system, and the relationship of acoustic measurements, the musical stimuli and the results of the perception experiments is discussed.

Analysis on perceptual sensitivity to head-related impulse responses in the median plane

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of subjective listening tests using a pair of headphones was conducted to investigate the perceptual sensitivity to Head-Related Impulse Responses (HRIRs) in the median plane.

On the Differences in Preferred Headphone Response for Spatial and Stereo Content

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigate how listeners' preference regarding headphone frequency response differs in the cases of stereo and spatial audio content reproduction, rendered using individual binaural room impulse responses.

The effect of stimulus duration on perception of Turkish vowels in normal-hearing and hearing-impaired children.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the effects of stimulus duration on vowel perception were determined by natural duration of the vowel in a given language, and unnaturally short and long vowels were misperceived by hearing impaired subjects.

Simulation of the transient and steady‐state sound propagation in rooms using a new combined ray‐tracing/image‐source algorithm

TL;DR: The new method combines the advantages of the ray‐tracing process, namely, the relatively slow increase of computation time with the length of the impulse response, with the accuracy inherent to the image‐source model, which is even sufficient to calculate the Fourier transform.

Transformation characteristics of the external human ear

TL;DR: With an impulse response technique the transfer functions from the free sound field to the ear‐canal entrance were measured on 20 subjects for sound incidence and the eardrum impedance was computed from this transfer function and completes the poor knowledge of the eARDrum impedance in the frequency range from 2 to 15 kHz.

Directional sensitivity of sound‐pressure levels in the human ear canal

TL;DR: The results indicate the types of horizontal and vertical spatial information that are available from sound level cues over various ranges of frequency and, within a small subject population, indicate the nature of intersubject variability.

ODEON—Another hybrid room acoustical model

TL;DR: The ODEON room acoustics program is intended to be a base for research in objective and subjective room acoustic research, and a useful tool for consultants, in which an initial ray tracing is carried out to determine potential reflection sequences.

Spectral cues utilized in the localization of sound in the median sagittal plane

TL;DR: A series of experiments carried out to further elucidate the role of spectral cues in locating sounds in the median sagittal plane (MSP) revealed a notch in the frequency response curves which migrated toward the lower frequencies as the sound source was moved from above to below the aural axis.
