Signal processing strategies to improve low-frequency performance of multi-channel systems in cuboid reverberant spaces.
No full textThis thesis addresses problems in the reproduction of low-frequency audio, in home listening environments, using digital signal processing. Focusing on cuboid rooms, it covers two primary areas. Firstly, controlling the sound field within an enclosure through a least-squares approach to filter design, secondly, predicting this field from a minimal number of acoustic measurements. It concludes that filters designed using a four-channel least-squares approach, based on pseudo-real-world data, and created using the proposed enhanced analytical model, show a measurable improvement in the real world. A literature review is presented of the physical properties of sound within an enclosure, various previous approaches addressing low-frequency issues, and methods for understanding and predicting the sound field. From this review, it is clear that the proposed approach for predicting the sound field within an enclosure is unique. The plane wave cancellation method offers a good solution but with limitations, and this is very thoroughly examined. The target is clearly to create a system objectively as effective as the plane wave cancellation method but without its limitations. The least-squares filter approach is introduced, and shown through numerical simulations to outperform the plane wave cancellation method, without its limitations. It is also shown that the effectiveness of the least-squares filter approach seen in numerical simulations, transfers to real-world data. Finally, methods are proposed for extracting room dimensions and source and receiver locations, from the frequency analysis of a small number of real-world acoustic measurements. The results are combined with Green’s function, to create an enhanced analytical model, that can give pseudo-real-world measurements, accurate enough to replace the need for real-world measurements, when designing least-square filter

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
