An Overview of Technically Oriented Psychoacoustics in Finland
This paper presents a short summary of educational and research activities in Finland related to psychoacoustics. Particularly, activities at the Helsinki University of Technology (TKK), in the Laboratory of Acoustics and Audio Signal Processing, are described in more detail. This includes
the curriculum of courses offered. Computer-based psychoacoustical experimentation principles used in the course 'Communication Acoustics' are characterised. Examples of successful research projects, such as psychoacoustically oriented auditory modelling for sound quality measurements, computational
modelling of spatial hearing, and psychoacoustical principles in signal processing, are referenced. A list of other psychoacoustical or more general hearing research in Finland is compiled.
