Description for Auditory and Visual Sensations
Hardback. Establishing a theory of subjective preference of the sound field in a concert hall, Ando bases this work on preference theory, along with a model of the human auditory-brain system. The model considers the specialization of human cerebral hemispheres. Num Pages: 369 pages, biography. BIC Classification: JMM; MJPD; PHDS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational.

Ando establishes a theory of subjective preference of the sound field in a concert hall, based on preference theory with a model of human auditory-brain system. The model uses the autocorrelation function and the interaural crosscorrelation function for signals arriving at two ear entrances and considers the specialization of human cerebral hemispheres. The theory may be applied to describe primary sensations such as pitch or missing fundamental, loudness, timbre, and duration. These four primary sensations may be formulated by the temporal factors extracted from the autocorrelation function associated with left hemisphere. Spatial sensations such as localization in the horizontal plane, ... Read more
