| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | The present study proposes a method for estimating the appropriate HRTFs for an individual listener. The proposed method estimates the frequencies of the two lowest spectral notches (N1 and N2), which play an important roll in vertical localization, in the HRTF of an individual listener by anthropometry of the listener's pinnae. The best-matching HRTFs, of which N1 and N2 are the closest to the estimates, are then selected from an HRTF database. In order to examine the validity of the proposed method, localization tests in the upper median plane were performed using four subjects. The results revealed that the best-matching HRTFs provided approximately the same performance as the listener’s own HRTFs for the target directions of front and rear for all the four subjects. For the upper target directions, however, the performance of the localization for some of the subjects degraded. | |
