- "Psychoacoustics is the branch of psychophysics involving the scientific study of sound perception and audiology—how human auditory system perceives various sounds."
The study of how the brain processes and interprets sound, including auditory illusions and the perception of spatial sound.
Pitch perception: How the brain interprets the frequency of sound waves and assigns them musical notes or tones.
Loudness perception: How the brain perceives the intensity of sound waves.
Timbre perception: How the brain distinguishes between different sounds based on their harmonic and spectral content.
Localization: How the brain locates the source of sound in space.
Masking: How one sound can interfere with the perception of another sound.
Sound propagation: How sound waves travel through different mediums and environments.
Room acoustics: How the physical characteristics of a space affect sound quality.
Psychoacoustic modeling: Mathematical models used to predict how the human ear will respond to different sounds.
Binaural recording and playback: Techniques for creating a realistic 3D audio experience through headphones.
Audio compression and coding: Techniques for reducing the amount of data needed to transmit or store digital audio.
Sound synthesis: Techniques for creating new sounds through electronic or digital means.
Audio processing: Techniques for modifying existing sounds through filters, equalizers, and other signal processing tools.
Music psychology: How the brain processes and responds to music, and how this affects emotional and behavioral outcomes.
Audiovisual perception: How the brain integrates auditory and visual information to create a coherent sensory experience.
Hearing impairment: The causes and effects of hearing loss, and strategies for compensating for or treating hearing loss.
Loudness Perception: Describes how humans perceive the intensity of sound.
Timbre Perception: Investigates how people differentiate between sounds of the same or similar pitch and loudness.
Pitch Perception: Determines how humans differentiate between sounds of different frequencies.
Localization: Focuses on how people locate or find the source of a sound.
Masking: Studies how one sound can obscure or change another sound's perception.
Sound Quality: Examines the subjective sound qualities or characteristics of a sound, such as brightness or warmth.
Echo Perception: Deals with how humans perceive echoes, reverberations, and reflections.
Virtual Acoustics: Explores acoustic scenes and sound synthesis based on physical modeling.
Spatial Perception: Researches how humans understand spatial aspects of sound, such as distance or direction.
Psychoacoustic Modeling: Refers to modeling of the human auditory system to predict perceptual aspects of sound.
