头相关传输函数(HRTF)是虚拟听觉重放的核心·目前,HRTF的实验室测量缺乏统一的规范。本文研究了不同测量对HRTF的听觉影响。首先提出了扩散场均衡的预处理方法,并对来自5个不同数据库的KEMAR假人的HRTF数据进行了扩散场均衡;然后,采用谱差异评估了不同数据库HRTF测量的频谱差异;最后,采用HRTF合成的虚拟声信号开展了一系列的主观听音实验,包括定位实验和区分实验·结果表明,扩散场均衡是一种有效的HRTF预处理方法,可以减小不同测量对HRTF频谱的影响;不同测量基本上不影响HRTF在12 kHz以下的定位效果,但对音色的影响较大,从而导致听觉上的可区分. 相似文献

合理的推断和预期是加快辨别听觉目标的关键。通过听觉目标辨别的反应时任务,研究了听感知过程中节律性时间期待和空间期待对声音目标辨别的影响。实验中,听觉序列中各声音以规律或不规律的时间节奏、沿有序或随机的空间方位呈现,形成四种期待条件:时间和空间期待兼备、只有时间期待、只有空间期待和没有期待。被试对声音序列末尾随机呈现的听觉目标尽快做按键反应。结果发现:(1)节律性时间期待显著加快被试对目标声音的反应速度;(2)空间期待对目标辨别速度的促进作用仅在时间非规律条件下发生。可见,在辨别听觉目标时,听者优先使用时间期待,并在无有效时间预测信息时使用空间期待,以促成对声音目标的最优知觉加工。 相似文献

以主观听觉测试实验为手段,研究人耳听觉系统辨识能力与声音特性、评价主体训练程度及噪声干扰的关系.实验结果发现:人耳辨识声音能力主要由声信号的谱时结构决定,人耳对于谐音信号的辨识能力明显强于非谐音,对于稳态信号的辨识能力略强于瞬态信号;评价主体的训练可以提高辨识效果及准确性,但与声音特性密切相关;不同的噪声干扰对人耳目标辨识能力的影响主要取决于声音频谱结构;比对测听方式能提高非受训人员的辨识准确性,但不影响受训人员的辨识效果.

基于听觉感知的噪声语义描述是噪声声品质研究的基础性问题,已有研究未将语义描述与噪声来源、频谱特性以及产品运行状态等物理信息联系起来。该文分别针对飞机舱内噪声、车辆噪声和空气净化器噪声这3组典型噪声开展了主观评价实验,并通过多维尺度分析和主成分分析描述了3组噪声的语义空间,系统分析了不同类型噪声的描述词,同时解释了描述词与噪声物理属性之间的联系。研究发现:飞机舱内噪声、车辆噪声以及空气净化器噪声可以由4维、4维和3维语义空间进行描述;不同类型噪声在语义描述中具有共性与个性,3组噪声语义的主要维度均与嘈杂感相关,而噪声的个性描述词与其声源的物理属性密切相关;进行声品质建模及应用时,应同时考虑噪声共性和个性描述词对听觉感知的影响,采取有针对性的措施以提升产品声品质。该文从听觉感知的角度进行了噪声特性的语义描述和分析,研究结果可为产品声品质以及噪声控制研究提供帮助。 相似文献

The impact of unilateral hearing loss on the localization of horizontal plane sound sources ipsilateral and contralateral to the side of the unimpaired ear was examined. Normal-hearing listeners judged the direction of six loudspeakers, separated by 30° and arrayed frontally or laterally on the right side with the right or left ear occluded. The benefit of massed practice over three sequential days was assessed. For the frontal loudspeaker array, azimuthal discrimination on the occluded side was poor but only 30% of sounds were perceived to come from the unoccluded side. For the right lateral array, when the ipsilateral ear was unoccluded, front and back were rarely confused. Accuracy mainly decreased for speakers close to the midline axis, front and back. When the contralateral ear was unoccluded responses were biased toward the rearmost speaker. Practice did not improve performance. The findings were discussed within the context of military operations. They support the need for job-specific hearing standards. 相似文献

A field study has been performed which assessed the effectiveness of two warning sounds under realistic factory conditions. The thirty subjects were press operators who were involved in their regular work activities during the course of the experiment. The noise levels at their work stations were in the range 85 to 95 dB(A). The warning sound, plus four other irrelevant sounds, each at one of five different intensities, were presented via a loudspeaker in random order and at random time intervals (mean inter-stimulus interval, 30 s; range, 10 to 50 s). The influence of the factors hearing level and age of the subjects and use of hearing protection were investigated.The results showed significant differences between the intentional and incidental warning sounds investigated. Whilst the perception of the intentional horn warning sound was unaffected by the hearing sensitivity of the subjects and the wearing of hearing protectors, these two factors had a significant effect on the perception, as a warning, of the clinking sound of metal components. Subjects classified as having a substantial hearing loss perceived, on average, 18 percent fewer clinking sounds than those subjects with normal hearing or a mild hearing loss and, when wearing hearing protectors, the subjects overall perceived, on average, 9 percent fewer clinks. It is of note that the results of the field study differ from those of earlier laboratory-based experiments in finding that the distinctive intentional warning sound was not entirely reliable as a warning, even at levels substantially above its masked threshold, and in observing more than double the adverse effect of wearing hearing protection. 相似文献

In normal-hearing listeners, musical background has been observed to change the sound representation in the auditory system and produce enhanced performance in some speech perception tests. Based on these observations, it has been hypothesized that musical background can influence sound and speech perception, and as an extension also the quality of life, by cochlear-implant users. To test this hypothesis, this study explored musical background [using the Dutch Musical Background Questionnaire (DMBQ)], and self-perceived sound and speech perception and quality of life [using the Nijmegen Cochlear Implant Questionnaire (NCIQ) and the Speech Spatial and Qualities of Hearing Scale (SSQ)] in 98 postlingually deafened adult cochlear-implant recipients. In addition to self-perceived measures, speech perception scores (percentage of phonemes recognized in words presented in quiet) were obtained from patient records. The self-perceived hearing performance was associated with the objective speech perception. Forty-one respondents (44% of 94 respondents) indicated some form of formal musical training. Fifteen respondents (18% of 83 respondents) judged themselves as having musical training, experience, and knowledge. No association was observed between musical background (quantified by DMBQ), and self-perceived hearing-related performance or quality of life (quantified by NCIQ and SSQ), or speech perception in quiet. 相似文献

Songbirds and parrots deafened as nestlings fail to develop normal vocalizations, while birds deafened as adults show a gradual deterioration in the quality and precision of vocal production. Beyond this, little is known about the effect of hearing loss on the perception of vocalizations. Here, we induced temporary hearing loss in budgerigars with kanamycin and tested several aspects of the hearing, including the perception of complex, species-specific vocalizations. The ability of these birds to discriminate among acoustically distinct vocalizations was not impaired but the ability to make fine-grain discriminations among acoustically similar vocalizations was affected, even weeks after the basilar papilla had been repopulated with new hair cells. Interestingly, these birds were initially unable to recognize previously familiar contact calls in a classification task-suggesting that previously familiar vocalizations sounded unfamiliar with new hair cells. Eventually, in spite of slightly elevated absolute thresholds, the performance of birds on discrimination and perceptual recognition of vocalizations tasks returned to original levels. Thus, even though vocalizations may initially sound different with new hair cells, there are only minimal long-term effects of temporary hearing loss on auditory perception, recognition of species-specific vocalizations, or other aspects of acoustic communication in these birds. 相似文献

Variability in background risk and distribution of various risk factors for hearing loss may explain some of the diversity in excess risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). This paper examines the impact of various risk factors on excess risk estimates of NIHL using data from the 1968-1972 NIOSH Occupational Noise and Hearing Survey (ONHS). Previous analyses of a subset of these data focused on 1172 highly "screened" workers. In the current analysis, an additional 894 white males (609 noise-exposed and 285 controls), who were excluded for various reasons (i.e., nonoccupational noise exposure, otologic or medical conditions affecting hearing, prior occupational noise exposure) have been added 2066) to assess excess risk of noise-induced material impairment in an unscreened population. Data are analyzed by age, duration of exposure, and sound level (8-h TWA) for four different definitions of noise-induced hearing impairment, defined as the binaural pure-tone average (PTA) hearing threshold level greater than 25 dB for the following frequencies: (a) 1-4 kHz (PTA1234), (b) 1-3 kHz (PTA123), (c) 0.5, 1, and 2 kHz (PTA512), and (d) 3, 4, and 6 kHz (PTA346). Results indicate that populations with higher background risks of hearing loss may show lower excess risks attributable to noise relative to highly screened populations. Estimates of lifetime excess risk of hearing impairment were found to be significantly different between screened and unscreened population for noise levels greater than 90 dBA. Predicted age-related risk of material hearing impairment in the ONHS unscreened population was similar to that predicted from Annex B and C of ANSI S3.44 for ages less than 60 years. Results underscore the importance of understanding differential risk patterns for hearing loss and the use of appropriate reference (control) populations when evaluating risk of noise-induced hearing impairment among contemporary industrial populations. 相似文献

This paper presents an analysis of hearing threshold levels among 2066 white male workers employed in various U.S. industries studied in the 1968-72 NIOSH Occupational Noise and Hearing Survey (ONHS). The distribution of hearing threshold levels (HTL) is examined in relation to various risk factors (age, prior occupational noise, medical conditions) for hearing loss among a population of noise exposed and control (low noise-exposed) industrial workers. Previous analyses of a subset of these data from the ONHS focused on 1172 highly "screened" workers. An additional 894 male workers (609 noise-exposed and 285 controls), who were excluded for various reasons (i.e., nonoccupational noise exposure, otologic or medical conditions affecting hearing, prior occupational noise exposure) have been added to examine hearing loss in an unscreened population. Data are analyzed by age, duration of exposure, and sound level (8-h TWA) by individual test frequency. Results indicate that hearing threshold levels are higher among unscreened noise-exposed and control workers relative to screened workers. Analysis of risk factors such as nonoccupational noise exposure, medical conditions, and type of industry among unscreened controls indicated that these factors were not significantly associated with increased mean HTLs or risk of material impairment over and above what is expected due to age. Age-specific mean hearing threshold levels (and percentiles of the distribution) among the unscreened ONHS control population may be used as a comparison population of low-noise exposed white male industrial workers for evaluating the effectiveness of hearing conservation programs for workers less than 55 years of age. To make valid inferences regarding occupational noise-induced hearing loss, it is important to use hearing data from reference (control) populations that are similar with respect to the degree of subject screening, type of work force (blue vs white collar), and the distribution of other risk factors for hearing loss. 相似文献

Sensorineural hearing loss is accompanied by loudness recruitment, a steeper-than-normal rise of perceived loudness with presentation level. To compensate for this abnormality, amplitude compression is often applied (e.g., in a hearing aid). Alternatively, since speech intelligibility has been modeled as the perception of fast energy fluctuations, enlarging these (by means of expansion) may improve speech intelligibility. Still, even if these signal-processing techniques prove useful in terms of speech intelligibility, practical application might be hindered by unacceptably low sound quality. Therefore, both speech intelligibility and sound quality were evaluated for syllabic compression and expansion of the temporal envelope. Speech intelligibility was evaluated with an adaptive procedure, based on short everyday sentences either in noise or with a competing speaker. Sound quality was measured by means of a rating-scale procedure, for both speech and music. In a systematic setup, both the ratio of compression or expansion and the number of independent processing bands were varied. Individual hearing thresholds were compensated for by a listener-specific filter and amplification. Both listeners with normal hearing and listeners with sensorineural hearing impairment participated as paid volunteers. The results show that, on average, both compression and expansion fail to show better speech intelligibility or sound quality than linear amplification. 相似文献

After successful cochlear implantation in one ear, some patients continue to use a hearing aid at the contralateral ear. They report an improved reception of speech, especially in noise, as well as a better perception of music when the hearing aid and cochlear implant are used in this bimodal combination. Some individuals in this bimodal patient group also report the impression of an improved localization ability. Similar experiences are reported by the group of bilateral cochlear implantees. In this study, a survey of 11 bimodally and 4 bilaterally equipped cochlear implant users was carried out to assess localization ability. Individuals in the bimodal implant group were all provided with the same type of hearing aid in the opposite ear, and subjects in the bilateral implant group used cochlear implants of the same manufacturer on each ear. Subjects adjusted the spot of a computer-controlled laser-pointer to the perceived direction of sound incidence in the frontal horizontal plane by rotating a trackball. Two subjects of the bimodal group who had substantial residual hearing showed localization ability in the bimodal configuration, whereas using each single device only the subject with better residual hearing was able to discriminate the side of sound origin. Five other subjects with more pronounced hearing loss displayed an ability for side discrimination through the use of bimodal aids, while four of them were already able to discriminate the side with a single device. Of the bilateral cochlear implant group one subject showed localization accuracy close to that of normal hearing subjects. This subject was also able to discriminate the side of sound origin using the first implanted device alone. The other three bilaterally equipped subjects showed limited localization ability using both devices. Among them one subject demonstrated a side-discrimination ability using only the first implanted device. 相似文献

A mathematical model for noise-induced hearing loss is based on the assumption that hair cells are damaged, temporarily or permanently, by metabolic exhaustion, and that the number of damaged hair cells and the hearing loss are monotonically increasing functions of an energy deficiency. The purpose of the model is to focus on the influence of sound intensity, exposure duration, and temporal pattern of the sound exposure on the noise-induced hearing loss from long-duration exposures. The model is restricted to the range of sound levels where metabolic exhaustion probably is the main reason for the hair cell damage. Only exposures with similar frequency spectra and producing moderate hearing losses are considered; frequency dependence is not discussed. 相似文献
