Hello List, Thanks for the many replies. There were 1 or 2 papers in particular that I was missing that should clear up a few things. A number of you emailed me to ask me to pass on personal replies so here is a summary of the important information. Thanks to everyone who took the time to respond to help me out here: (1) PEAQ--The ITU Standard for Objective Measurement of Perceived Audio Quality (2) Zwicker's Work (3) T. Thiede, W. C. Treurniet, R. Bitto, C. Schmidmer, T. Sporer, J. G. Beerends, C. Colomes, M. Keyhl, G. Stoll, K. Brandenburg, B. Feiten, "PEAQ - The ITU-Standard for Objective Measurement of Perceived Audio Quality," J. Audio Eng. Soc., vol. 48, pp. 3-29 (2000 Jan/Feb). (4) J. G. Beerends and J. A. Stemerdink, "A Perceptual Audio Quality Measure Based on a Psychoacoustic Sound Representation," J. Audio Eng. Soc., vol. 40, pp. 963-978 (1992 Dec.) (5) ITU-R BS.1387-1 (6) An Examination and Interpretation of ITU-R BS.1387, P. Kabal (7) Perceptual Audio Quality Assessment using a Non-Linear Filter Bank, T. Thiede (Google it) - Including DIX (8) PAQM (9) POM (10) OASE (11) PERCEVAL (12) NMR Many thanks again to all.
