Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In general, it is known that an ability of sound localization in a median plane is different in individuals. In the previous work, we analyzed the relationship between the ability and pinna shape features such as a pinna length and a pinna angle, which are invariants for sound directions. And we reached to the hypothesis that the pinna shape features should depend on sound directions. To prove this, we introduce the specular-reflection shape method for 3D shape models with light directions. This method is applied by replacing light directions and the vision point, with sound directions and receiving point of sound, respectively, to analyze pinna shape features. Using this model, we analyze the relationship between the sound localization ability and the specular-reflection shape-feature descriptors. And we conclude that the specular reflection shape method is related to sound localization ability in the median plane and some pinna parts may modify the sound localization ability.
