Abstract: The proposed method is directed a sound source localization
using a binaural detector configuration. It comprises the
steps of:
     Preprocessing the two signals using a filter bank to gain
(2D) time-frequency spectrum for each signal.   Jointly calculating ITD and ILD measures using a common
matching procedure working on 2D patches of the time-frequency
spectrum. This results in two frequency vs.
displacement matrices (one for the ITD and one for the ILD
measurement) that jointly characterize the sound source.
These matrices are used as a whole (all displacements and
all frequencies) in the following steps.   Learning the averaged frequency vs. displacement matrices
for each sound source location. This is done separately for
the ITD and the ILD measurements.   Comparing a measured frequency vs. displacement matrix
with the learned matrices to gain a probability distribution
for the sound source location (for each frequency channel).
This is again done both for the ITD and the ILD
measurements.   Combining the ITD and ILD probability distribution
matrices to gain a single joint probability distribution for
the sound source localization.   Applying information-theoretic procedures to extract the
best estimation for the sound source location.
