description: Recently, there is a trend in developing new multi-channel formats towards adding additional loudspeakers in elevated positions. While the common 5.1 surround sound system only has loudspeakers in the horizontal plane, more complex systems, such as 10.2 or 22.2, include two or more elevated loudspeakers. When listening to music using a multi-channel playback system, the audio material has often not been produced for the used system, e.g. listening to 10.2 material while using a 5.1 surround system. In such cases, the audio material has to be down- or upmixed. Compared with listening to the original audio material, down- or upmixing affects the listening experience. The localization of sound sources is one attribute that might be affected by down- or upmixing the audio material. In the past, some localization listening tests were conducted by using an user interface depicting a two-dimensional representation of the scene. When it comes to elevated loudspeakers, a third dimension also has to be depicted by the user interface. In this work, an experiment was conducted where participants had to locate sound sources by using two different graphical user interfaces (GUIs). The first GUI consisted of two static images of the scene: a top-view and a front-view. The other GUI had a fully adjustable 3D visualization of the scene. The main purpose of the experiment is to investigate the differences between both GUIs. This includes the time participants spend on each GUI and the difference in the responses. This work is a contribution to the development of new evaluation methods for new and existing multi-channel audio formats and renderers.

Combining Higher Order Reflections with Diffractions without Explosion of Computation Time: The Sound Particle Radiosity Method

description: The simulation of sound propagation in large rooms and urban environments is mainly performed by geometric simulation methods like ray tracing or the Sound Particle Simulation Method (SPSM). Hence, a severe deficiency is that wave effects are not included, especially if screening or diffraction effects are important. A method to introduce diffraction is the Uncertainty relation Based Diffraction (UBD) model, which has been successfully evaluated recently. To find close edges as sources of diffraction, a subdivision of the room into convex subspaces is performed by virtual walls. However, this causes a recursive split-up of Sound Particles (SPs) at each diffraction event. This effect should be compensated by a reunification of SPs. Therefore, the Sound Particle Radiosity (SPR) has been found that combines the SPSM with an advantage of the radiosity method: the re-unification of sound energy that uses a discretization of the surface into small patches. Now, SPR has been extended to 3D for the first time. To increase the available memory and to decrease the computation time, a parallelization has been implemented for the first time. First results indicate that the discretization of the virtual walls into patches yields additional but tolerable errors in the simulation of diffraction. However, even in 2D, SPR requires a huge memory. To solve this problem in 3D remains a great challenge, even more for more complex rooms. Also a method for a convex subdivision to 3D still has to be found.

description: This research examines the validity of utilising a 2D multiplane FDTD acoustic model to simulate low frequency sound propagation as part of a hybrid room impulse response (RIR) synthesis system. Analytic results, pertaining to the comparison of simulated low frequency multiplane RIRs with both practical RIR measurements and 3D FDTD simulated RIRs, demonstrate that a good level of accuracy is attained through use of this hybrid modelling paradigm. This claim is further supported, in part, by comparative subjective test results. Furthermore, 2D multiplane simulations are shown to be far more efficient than full 3D FDTD modelling procedures as they achieve a 98% reduction in computation time.

description: Real-time auralisation systems are increasingly being used by researchers aiming to observe how particular stage and auditorium configurations affect a musician’s performance technique. These experiments typically take place in controlled laboratory conditions equipped with auralisation systems capable of reproducing the 3D acoustic conditions of a performance space in response to a performing musician in real-time. This paper compares the performance of First Order Ambisonics and Spatial Impulse Response Rendering in terms of both objective measurements and subjective listening tests. It was found that both techniques spatialised single reflections with similar accuracy when measured at the sweet spot. Informal listening tests found that the techniques produced very similar perceived results both for synthesised impulse responses and for measured stage acoustic impulse responses.

description: Various approaches have been reported on HRIR modeling to lighten the high computation cost of the 3-D audio systems without sacrificing the quality of the rendered sounds. The performance of these HRIR models have been widely evaluated usually in terms of the objective estimation errors between the original measured HRIRs and the modeled HRIRs. However, it is still unclear how much these objective evaluation results match the psychoacoustic evaluations. In this research, an efficient finite-impulse-response (FIR) model is studied as a case study which is essentially based on the concept of the minimum-phase modeling technique. The accuracy dependency of this modeling approach on the order of FIR filter is examined with the objective estimation errors and the psychoacoustic tests. In the psychoacoustic tests, the MIT HRIR database are exploited and evaluated in terms of sound source localization difference and sound quality difference by comparing the synthesized stimuli with the measured HRIRs and those with the FIR models of different orders. Results indicated that the measured hundred-sample-length HRIRs can be sufficiently modeled by the low-order FIR model from the perceptual point of view, and provided the relationship between perceptual sound localization/quality difference and the objective estimation results that should be useful for evaluating the other HRIR modeling approaches.

description: Cosmetics play a significant role in enhancing human appearance and beautifying the skin. Cold creams are perticularly water-in-oil emulsions designed for application on the skin or accessible mucous membranes. They provide localized and sometimes systemic effects at the site of application. In this context, researchers have explored the formulation and evaluation of cold creams enriched with turmeric and vitamin E.

Their no significant changes in physical properties were observed during the study period. The cream exhibited good consistency, spreadability, and pH. Stability parameters, including visual appearance, fragrance, remained consistent over time.

These ingredients not only provide moisturization but also offer potential skin-soothing and antioxidant properties. The evaluation parameters included pH, irritancy, spreadability, homogeneity, washability, physical properties These assessments ensure the safety, efficacy, and stability of cold cream formulations.

In summary, turmeric and vitamin E enriched cold creams hold promise for their cooling and soothing effects, making them suitable for skin care. The incorporation of natural ingredients like turmeric and vitamin E enhances their moisturizing properties, benefiting the skin.

Pharmaceutical creams are used for a number of aesthetic purposes, including cleansing, beautifying, modifying look, moisturising, etc. They also protect the skin from bacterial and fungal infections and can be used to treat skin injuries including burns, cuts, and wounds. The general population and society can safely employ these semi-solid preparations.

description: Traditional representations of sound fields based on spherical harmonics expansions do not include the sound source distance information. As multipole expansions can accurately encode the distance of a sound source, they can be used for accurate sound field reproduction. The binaural reproduction of multipole encodings, though, requires head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) with distance information. However, the inclusion of distance information on available data sets of HRTFs, using acoustic propagators, requires demanding regularization techniques. We alternatively propose a method to embed distance information in the spherical harmonics encodings of compact microphone array recordings. We call this method the Distance Editing Binaural Ambisonics (DEBA). DEBA is applied to the synthesis of binaural signals of arbitrary distances using only far-field HRTFs. We evaluated DEBA by synthesizing HRTFs for nearby sources from various samplings of far-field ones. Comparisons with numerically calculated HRTFs yielded mean spectral distortion values below 6 dB, and mean normalized spherical correlation values above 0.97.

description: The role of acoustics in architectural planning processes is often neglected if the designer lacks necessary experience in acoustics. Even if an acoustic consultant is involved he might be presentedwith limited options after the initial planning process. Some disadvantageous decisions might be hard to reverse then. To improve and facilitate the construction process permanent immediate feedback should be given to the designer. Planning cannot be imaged today without live 3D visual rendering. But also acoustics should be rendered in real-time to provide the same type of intuitive feedback. Therefore a real-time room acoustics auralization was implemented into a popular CAD-Modeling tool. Binaural room impulse responses are continuously updated using image sources and ray tracing algorithms and convolved in real-time with audio feed from recorded sounds or the user’s microphone. The CAD model can be freely modified during the simulations including geometry, surface materials and source and receiver positions. Using streaming low-latency convolution, an immediate feedback is provided to the user.

description: Auralization provides a valuable tool that allows architects, building owners, and other decision-makers to directly experi-ence the aural implications of design decisions and allows them to make more informed choices. Standard numerical metrics are difficult to relate to aural phenomena without significant practice and frequently fail to capture acoustical issues that are essential to the basic functionality of spaces. Consultants at Acentech have been using auralizations of full soundscapes including many independent sources as design and communication tools for a variety of projects including atria, lecture halls, theaters, and performance spaces. These auralizations have included natural speech and electro-acoustic reinforcement, crowd activity, inter-actions between PA systems and room acoustics, HVAC noise, wall and window transmission, and the subjective effects of sound masking. In general, clients find the experience of listen-ing to their as-yet unbuilt spaces to be exciting and useful. Though most are not trained listeners, they typically move quick-ly past the “wow” stage and into critical listening and candid discussion of the different acoustical treatments presented and of the overall sound of the space. This helps architects and project owners to feel connected to the acoustical aspect of the design, and it helps the team to agree on design decisions that may have significant implications regarding cost and aesthetics. This paper presents several case studies of projects where auralization was an integral part of the design process. Addition-ally, it describes a rapid auralization design and development process using a MaxMSP-based real-time ambisonic convolution platform.

description: A spherical microphone array can encode a measured soundfield into its spherical harmonic components. Such an array will be subject to limitations on the highest spherical harmonic order it can encode and encoding accuracy at different frequencies. Ambisonics is a system designed to reproduce the spherical harmonic components of a measured or virtual soundfield using multiple loudspeakers. In ambisonic systems, the size of the sweet spot is wavelength dependent, and thus decreases in size with an increase in frequency. This paper examines how to reconcile the limitations of the recording and playback stages to arrive at the optimum ambisonic decoding scheme for a given spherical array design. In addition, binaural models are used to evaluate these systems perceptually.

description: As an individualized alternative to traditional artificial heads, individual head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) can be synthesized with a microphone array and digital filtering. This strategy is referred to as "virtual artificial head" (VAH). The VAH filter coefficients are calculated by incorporating regularization to account for small errors in the characteristics and/or the position of the microphones. A common way to increase robustness is to impose a socalled white noise gain (WNG) constraint. The higher the WNG, the more robust the HRTF synthesis will be. On the other hand, this comes at the cost of decreasing the synthesis accuracy for the given sample of the HRTF set in question. Thus, a compromise between robustness and accuracy must be found, which furthermore depends on the used setup (sensor noise, mechanical stability etc.). In this study, different WNG are evaluated perceptually by four expert listeners for two different microphone arrays. The aim of the study is to find microphone array-dependent WNG regions which result in appropriate perceptual performances. It turns out that the perceptually optimal WNG varies with the microphone array, depending on the sensor noise and mechanical stability but also on the individual HRTFs and preferences. These results may be used to optimize VAH regularization strategies with respect to microphone characteristics, in particular self noise and stability.

Locations: Slovakia (Balát 1977); NE Slovakia (Szczykutowicz et al. 2006).
Notes: Balát (1977) recorded Menacanthus camelinus from Slovakia without a host association. Balát (1977) also mentioned Menacanthus brevidentatus —now a junior synonym of M. camelinus (see below). Considering that the name M. brevidentatus was traditionaly used for lice associated with Lanius minor only, and that Lanius excubitor is the type host of M. camelinus, we can assume that the host of Balát’s record is Lanius excubitor. Furthermore, Szczykutowicz et al. (2006) confirm this host-louse association for Slovakia.

Kant’s Justification of Welfare
Creators: name: Baiasu, Sorin
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2014

description: For several decades, theorists interested in Kant’s discussion of welfare have puzzled over Kant’s position on the issue of the redistribution of goods in society. They have done this both in order to clarify his position and as a source of inspiration for current conceptual problems faced by contemporary political philosophers who attempt to reconcile the ideal of equal freedom with the asymmetric interference necessary for redistribution and social provision. In this paper, I start with Kant’s brief discussion of welfare in Rechtslehre and I identify four claims that Kant clearly asserts as characteristic for his view. I then outline five main interpretative directions in the literature, I evaluate and rank them. The most accurate view of Kant’s justification of welfare, which I call the “genuinely Kantian” position is, however, unable to explain the nature of the duty of welfare that it asserts. By going back to Kant’s text, I suggest one solution. This solution, together with some further questions, can be seen as initiating a new interpretative direction in the literature.

If God’s Existence is Unprovable, Then is Everything Permitted? Kant, Radical Agnosticism, and Morality
Creators: name: Hanna, Robert
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2014

description: This essay is about how four deeply important Kantian ideas can significantly illuminate some essentially intertwined issues in philosophical theology, philosophical logic, the metaphysics of agency, and above all, morality. These deeply important Kantian ideas are: (1) Kant’s argument for the impossibility of the Ontological Argument, (2) Kant’s first “postulate of pure practical reason,” immortality, (3) Kant’s third postulate of pure practical reason, the existence of God, and finally (4) Kant’s second postulate of pure practical reason, freedom.

Respect Towards Elderly Demented Patients
Creators: name: Sensen, Oliver
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2014

description: One question of applied ethics is the status and proper treatment of marginal cases, i.e., of people who are not yet or not anymore in full possession of their rational capacities, such as elderly demented people. Does one belittle them if one does not treat them like normal human adults, or would it be disrespectful and demanding too much if one did? Are elderly demented even the proper object of respect? In this paper I explore what Kant would say about these questions if he had addressed them. I look at what Kantian respect is, how he justifies the requirement to respect others, and what it demands more specifically. My claim is that Kant conceives of respect as a maxim of not exalting oneself above others. One should adopt this attitude independently of what the other is like. Differences between normal human adults and marginal cases are important for how one should treat them, but ultimately not for the question of why one should treat them with respect. Accordingly, elderly demented people should be respected, and it depends on the individual case what kind of actions this implies.

Kant on Freewill, Grace and Forgiveness
Creators: name: Stevenson, Leslie

Year: 2014

description: How do our secular reflections on freewill relate to the theological tradition of human freedom and divine grace? I will pursue this question with reference to Kant, who represents a half-way house between Christianity and the atheism of other Enlightenment thinkers. But are those the only two alternatives? I suggest that Kant’s wrestling with the notion of divine grace can draw us all towards recognition of the ultimate mystery of human motivation and behaviour, and our need for forgiveness and hope.
