Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study deals with the technology of spatial recording of acoustical signals and aims to improve the spatial resolution by introducing the soft computing technology.
The optimization of a neural-network-based microphone-array system was achieved by determining the system parameters and the neural-network-learning parameters using a genetic algorithm. Then the system was expanded to learn super-directivities for multiple frequencies. As a result, the super-directivities for sinusoidal signals with various frequencies were yielded. Finally, we developed a wideband system in which an input complex tone is decomposed into sinusoidal components using the fast Fourier transform, and processed in parallel with independent array-processing units.
