Abstract:
This paper outlines the steps in objectively estimating the time-varying loudness of one's own voice in a room (i.e. autophonic loudness). Voice recordings, made with a near-mouth microphone, are converted to the sound that reaches the two eardrums of the talking (or singing)-listener by convolving them with the impulse responses from the mouth to the respective ears of an anthropomorphic head and torso. The influences of bone-conducted sound and room reflections are taken into account. These convolved recordings are then processed with a computational time-varying loudness model. The method is demonstrated by a short case study, and the results illustrate something of the benefit of loudness analysis over sound pressure level analysis for representing autophonic loudness.

Perceiving Loudness, Pitch, and Location
Place theory, or place coding, suggests that different pitches are heard because various sound waves activate specific locations along the cochlea's basilar membrane. The brain determines the pitch of a sound by identifying...

Sound Intensity Level
The human ear can perceive an extensive range of sound intensity, necessitating the use of the logarithmic scale to define a physical quantity—the intensity level. It is a ratio of two intensities and hence a...
