Abstract :
We describe a parsimonious model for the direction-dependent transfer function of the pinna. The model describes the transfer function with reference to resonators located in particular physical positions relative to the ear canal. The purpose of the work is to provide a parametric model that permits identification with moderate data-gathering, and filter specification for any direction without the need for interpolation of responses
