Neural network model of binaural hearing based on spatial feature extraction of the head related transfer function

In spatial hearing, complex valued head-related transfer function (HRTF) can be represented as a real valued head-related impulse response (HRIR). Using Karhunen-Loeve expansion, the spatial features of the normalized HRIRs on measurement space can be extracted as spatial character functions. A neural network model based on Von-Mises function is used to approximate the discrete spatial character function of HRIR. As a result, a time-domain binaural model is established and it fits the measured HRIRs well.
