In this paper, we propose a Direction of Arrival (DoA) estimator for a Hearing Aid System (HAS) which can connect to a wireless microphone worn by a target talker. The wireless microphone "informs" the HAS about the almost noise-free content of the target sound, and the proposed DoA estimator uses t…
Most state-of-the-art Sound Source Localization (SSL) algorithms have been proposed for applications which are “uninformed” about the target sound content; however, utilizing a wireless microphone worn by a target talker, enables recent Hearing Aid Systems (HASs) to access to an almost noise-free so…
The direction dependence of Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) forms the basis for HRTF-based Sound Source Localization (SSL) algorithms. In this paper, we show how spectral similarities of the HRTFs of different directions in the horizontal plane influence performance of HRTF-based SSL algorit…
