The development of methods to represent and explore soundscape data has the potential to facilitate deeper insights into different datasets. Although it is unlikely that any single method will sufficiently capture all information in empirical studies, attempts are worthwhile to facilitate advancements in this realm. Therefore, we propose a web application that fosters an interactive exploration of datasets based on the ISO 12913. The application facilitates a comprehensive soundscape search using the 8 items of the standard, 8 features characterizing the soundscape (e.g., intensities of natural, human, and technical sound sources heard), and 10 distinct acoustic features. The search encompasses all possible combinations of these components, thus facilitating detailed exploration, offering an in-depth dataset overview, and enabling the comparison of different datasets. Further functionalities include text searching and the option to download, save, and load selected soundscapes, enhancing control and flexibility in the design of empirical studies and supporting urban planners in understanding various soundscape items.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{vonLauerMuenchhofenvonBergSteffens2025, author = {von Lauer-M{\"u}nchhofen, Jakob and von Berg, Markus and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Applicability of Common Room Acoustic Parameters for Music Recording Spaces in Recording Studios}, series = {Proceedings of DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, booktitle = {Proceedings of DAS|DAGA 2025: 51st Annual Meeting on Acoustics March 17-20, 2025, Copenhagen}, editor = {Dau, Torsten and Epp, Bastian}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Akustik e.V.}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-939296-23-2}, pages = {1224 -- 1227}, year = {2025}, subject = {Raumakustik}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{SerditovaTangSteffens2025, author = {Serditova, Dana and Tang, Kevin and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Automatic Speech Recognition Biases in Newcastle English: an Error Analysis}, series = {Interspeech 2025, 17 - 21 August in Rotterdam}, booktitle = {Interspeech 2025, 17 - 21 August in Rotterdam}, publisher = {ISCA}, doi = {10.21437/Interspeech.2025-1973}, pages = {3204 -- 3208}, year = {2025}, subject = {Automatische Spracherkennung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KleinvonBergBirweetal.2024, author = {Klein, Paula and von Berg, Markus and Birwe, Dagmar and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Can the Perceived Spatial Impression of Classical Recordings Be Predicted by Audio Descriptors?

Crucial aspects of spatial perception can be described by the attributes ensemble width, depth, envelopment, and reverberation duration. In a listening experiment, a sample of 30 experts rated 24 orchestra recordings by these attributes. To compare these ratings to signalrelated measures of spatial impression, an audio descriptor for the interaural cross-correlation coefficient in music recordings was chosen as a measure of perceived ensemble width. A second algorithm estimated the reverberation time from decay segments in the recorded music. Linear mixed-effects models were then used to test whether these two descriptors, combined with other audio features related to timbre, are suitable for predicting participants' ratings of the perceptual attributes. Overall, results confirmed that the signal-related measures used can indeed predict perceptual attributes, with 41\% of rating variance explained in the case of reverberation duration. In contrast, these objective measures turned out to be less accurate predictors of the perceived ensemble width, with a variance explanation of 21\%. This study can thus be regarded as a starting point for further studies aiming to predict the perceived spatial impression in music recordings.}, subject = {Raumakustik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{EgermannLepaSchoenrocketal.2017, author = {Egermann, Hauke and Lepa, Steffen and Sch{\"o}nrock, Andreas and Herzog, Martin and Steffens, Jochen}, title = {Development and Evaluation of a General Attribute Inventory for Music in Branding}, series = {Proceedings of the 25th Anniversary Conference of the European Society for the Cognitive Sciences of Music (ESCOM): "The expressive interaction with music" (Ghent, Belgium)}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 25th Anniversary Conference of the European Society for the Cognitive Sciences of Music (ESCOM): "The expressive interaction with music" (Ghent, Belgium)}, editor = {Ginsborg, Jane and Lamont, Alexandra}, address = {Ghent}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SkodaSteffensBeckerSchweitzer2014, author = {Skoda, Sabrina and Steffens, Jochen and Becker-Schweitzer, J{\"o}rg}, title = {Ger{\"a}uschbewertungen in komplexen akustischen Umgebungen -Wie tragen einzelne Schallquellen zur subjektiven Bewertung der L{\"a}stigkeit einer Soundscape bei?}, series = {"Fortschritte der Akustik"}, booktitle = {"Fortschritte der Akustik"}, editor = {Kollmeier, Birger}, publisher = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Audiologie}, address = {Oldenburg; Berlin}, organization = {Deutsche Gesellschaft f{\"u}r Audiologie}, isbn = {978-3-939296-06-5}, pages = {511 -- 512}, year = {2014}, language = {de} } @incollection{vonBergSteffensMuellensiefenetal.2020, author = {von Berg, Markus and Steffens, Jochen and M{\"u}llensiefen, Daniel and Weinzierl, Stefan}, title = {Gibt es raumakustische H{\"o}rexpertise?}, series = {Fortschritte der Akustik - DAGA 2020: 46.
