Binaural Speaker Localization Integrated Into an Adaptive Beamformer for Hearing Aids.

In this paper, we present and compare novel algorithms to localize simultaneous speakers using four microphones distributed on a pair of binaural hearing aids. The framework consists of two groups of localization algorithms, namely, beamforming-based and statistical model based localization algorithms. We first generalize our previously proposed methods based on beamforming techniques to the binau...
