Biomimetic direction of arrival estimation for resolving front-back confusions in hearing aids (2015)
Journal Article
Archer-Boyd, A. W., Whitmer, W. M., Brimijoin, W. O., & Soraghan, J. J. (2015). Biomimetic direction of arrival estimation for resolving front-back confusions in hearing aids. Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 137(5), doi:10.1121/1.4918297

Sound sources at the same angle in front or behind a two-microphone array (e.g., bilateral hearing aids) produce the same time delay and two estimates for the direction of arrival: A front-back confusion. The auditory system can resolve this issue us... Read More about Biomimetic direction of arrival estimation for resolving front-back confusions in hearing aids.

The just-noticeable difference in speech-to-noise ratio (2015)
Journal Article
McShefferty, D., Whitmer, W. M., & Akeroyd, M. A. (2015). The just-noticeable difference in speech-to-noise ratio. Trends in Hearing, 19(1), https://doi.org/10.1177/2331216515572316

Just-noticeable differences (JNDs) have been measured for various features of sounds, but despite its importance to communication, there is no benchmark for what is a just-noticeable—and possibly meaningful—difference in speech-to-noise ratio (SNR)....
