From October 25th to 27th, Professor Sungyoung Kim and student Rai Sato attended the 155th convention, AES New York 2023, held in New York City, United States.
The Audio Engineering Society (AES) stands as the sole professional body dedicated entirely to audio technology. Established in 1948 in the USA, the AES has grown into a global entity that brings together audio engineers, creative artists, scientists, and students from around the world to foster progress in audio and to spread newly acquired knowledge and research findings.
Celebrating its 75th anniversary, this year’s convention was conducted entirely in-person, unimpeded by the effects of COVID-19, and featured an exhibition of audio equipment that attracted a multitude of researchers, students, and audio engineers.
Our laboratory presented the following four pieces of research:
Quantitative Assessment of Acoustical Attributes and Listener Preferences in Binaural Renderers
Rai Sato, Akira Takeuchi, Hwan Shim, Sungyoung Kim
Validation of a Neural Network Clustering Model for Affective Response to Immersive Music
Sungyoung Kim, Doyuen Ko, Will Howie
Transcending Boundaries: Unleashing Musical Expression through Immersive Sound Image and Reverberation Control System
Hiromu Ohgi, Hideo Miyazaki, Sungyoung Kim, Sihyun Uhm
Analysis of the Audio Engineering Society’s Research Trend of the Last Four Decades Using the Topic Modeling of the AES Publications
Minsang Namgoong, Sungyoung Kim
Rai Sato and RIT student Akira Takeuchi also participated in Dolby’s tech tour before the AES conference. In this tech tour, we visited the Dolby Screening Room NYC and listened to various genres of Dolby Atmos music in a well-tuned theater room.
The engagement and insights shared at AES New York 2023 not only reflect our laboratory’s commitment to advancing the field of audio engineering but also underscore the vibrant collaboration and exchange of ideas that are essential for driving innovation in this ever-evolving discipline.
