Estimation of the direction-of-arrival (DoA) of a speaker in a room is important in many audio signal processing applications. Environments with reverberation that masks the DoA information are particularly challenging. Recently, a DoA…
Recently, a relative transfer function (RTF)-vector-based method has been proposed to estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of a target speaker for a binaural hearing aid setup, assuming the availability of external microphones. This…
In hearing aid applications, an important objective is to accurately estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of multiple speakers in noisy and reverberant environments. Recently, we proposed a binaural DOA estimation method, where the DOAs…
Supervised learning based methods for source localization, being data driven, can be adapted to different acoustic conditions via training and have been shown to be robust to adverse acoustic environments. In this paper, a convolutional…
We present a system for localizing sound sources in a room with several ad-hoc microphone arrays. Each circular array performs direction of arrival (DOA) estimation independently using commercial software. The DOAs are fed to a fusion…
While deep-learning-based speaker localization has shown advantages in challenging acoustic environments, it often yields only direction-of-arrival (DOA) cues rather than precise two-dimensional (2D) coordinates. To address this, we propose…
To estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of multiple speakers, subspace-based prototype transfer function matching methods such as multiple signal classification (MUSIC) or relative transfer function (RTF) vector matching are commonly…
This paper introduces a new approach to sound source localization using head-related transfer function (HRTF) characteristics, which enable precise full-sphere localization from raw data. While previous research focused primarily on using…
Recently, a method has been proposed to estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of a single speaker by minimizing the frequency-averaged Hermitian angle between an estimated relative transfer function (RTF) vector and a database of…
To achieve human-like behaviour during speech interactions, it is necessary for a humanoid robot to estimate the location of a human talker. Here, we present a method to optimize the parameters used for the direction of arrival (DOA)…
In this paper we consider a binaural hearing aid setup, where in addition to the head-mounted microphones an external microphone is available. For this setup, we investigate the performance of several relative transfer function (RTF) vector…

This paper presents a method for real-time estimation of 2-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) of one or more sound sources using a nonlinear array of three microphones. 2D-DOA is estimated employing frame-level time difference of…
Conventional direction of arrival (DOA) estimators are based on array processing using either time differences or beamforming. The proposed approach is based on the received power at each microphone, which enables simple hardware, low…

An important aspect of a humanoid robot is audition. Previous work has presented robot systems capable of sound localization and source segregation based on microphone arrays with various configurations. However, no theoretical framework…
Direction-of-arrival estimation of multiple speakers in a room is an important task for a wide range of applications. In particular, challenging environments with moving speakers, reverberation and noise, lead to significant performance…
Spatial speech communication, i.e., the reconstruction of spoken signal along with the relative speaker position in the enclosure (reverberation information) is considered in this paper. Directional, diffuse components and the source…
This paper introduces a multi-microphone method for extracting a desired speaker from a mixture involving multiple speakers and directional noise in a reverberant environment. In this work, we propose leveraging the instantaneous relative…
Estimation of a speaker's direction and head orientation with binaural recordings can be a critical piece of information in many real-world applications with emerging `earable' devices, including smart headphones and AR/VR headsets.…
