Abstract
A method for generating an individual-specific head-related transfer function from a database containing 3D or 2D ear data and corresponding head-related transfer functions, the method comprises the steps of: performing a statistical analysis of the 3D or 2D ear space of the database; performing a statistical analysis of the head-related-transfer-function space of the data base; performing an analysis of the relationships between the statistical parameters of the statistical analysis of the 3D or 2D ear space and the statistical parameters of the head-related-transfer-function space; and determining, from the relationship analysis and the statistical analysis of the 3D or 2D ear space, a function for calculating a head-related transfer function from data representative of at least one ear.
