Detailed knowledge of the theoretical concepts underlying listening tests and of modern designs of listening tests. Knowledge about human auditory perception and its application in e.g. audio quality and digital signal processing.
Subjective listening experiment design and models of human auditory perception will be treated with a focus on application in audio quality assessments (e.g. for sound reproduction) and in digital signal processing algorithm development (e.g. for low bit-rate audio coding and headphone virtualizers).
