Evaluating MCC-PHAT for the LOCATA Challenge - Task 1 and Task 3 (1809.07549v1)
Published 20 Sep 2018 in eess.AS
Abstract: This report presents test results for the \mbox{LOCATA} challenge \cite{loLLMann2018locata} using the recently developed MCC-PHAT (multichannel cross correlation - phase transform) sound source localization method. The specific tasks addressed are respectively the localization of a single static and a single moving speakers using sound recordings of a variety of static microphone arrays. The test results are compared with those of the MUSIC (multiple signal classification) method. The optimal subpattern assignment (OSPA) metric is used for quantitative performance evaluation. In most cases, the MCC-PHAT method demonstrates more reliable and accurate location estimates, in comparison with those of the MUSIC method.
