Sažetak
Annoyance caused by environmental noise intruding the private dwelling and perception of the sonic environment in public spaces share a critical dependence on the detection of salient sound events.During everyday activities, the probability of noticing a sound in the complex sonic environment is proportional to how much this sound stands out of its context. Based on a thorough review of human auditory processing, scene analysis and attention, we propose a computational model that allows to identify salient sounds in a complex environment. The tonotopic model possesses a unique capability to trace amplitude modulations and phase sweeps, which are features that the human auditory system is highly sensitive to. The model is validated by exploring its response to sound environments with known annoying characteristics such as short rise times and impulses and results are contrasted against Zwicker loudness.
