Abstract :
This paper presents the sound customizing system, which compensates the perceptual sound quality drop caused by individual hearing loss and poor room acoustic environment. In order to compensate the quality drop, the overall perceptual hearing profile is measured and the proposed algorithm customizes the sound according to the personal profile. The subjective assessment result shows that the proposed method improves the overall sound quality.
