Method and apparatus for individualizing the HRTF model by

摘要

Disclosed is a system and method for method of modeling head-related transfer functions HRTFs specific to an individual. The method includes constructing a database of a plurality of HRTFs for a multitude of directions and for a plurality of individuals, and using an artificial neural network to construct a model from the database. The method further comprises measuring an HRTF for a given individual for a few selected directions, applying the model to the measurements, and calculating the individual's HRTF in the multitude of directions based on the application of the model.
