Treble simulation of diffraction (RS6)

Abstract

Diffraction is a prominent low frequency phenomenon that is known to be difficult to simulate with traditional geometrical acoustics (GA) software even with some compensations. Treble outperforms the conventional GA software in simulating diffraction from a large barrier by directly solving the wave equation as shown in the BRAS (Benchmark for Room Acoustical Simulation) RS5 scene. This study compares Treble simulations and BRAS for the RS6 scene called finite diffracting body.
In this paper you can see how Treble's simulation validated against BRAS rs6 data on sound diffractions around a finite obstacle at low frequencies.

Treble and Hugging Face Collaborate to Advance Audio ML

Treble Technologies and Hugging Face have partnered to make physically accurate acoustic simulation data openly accessible to the global research community. As part of this collaboration, we are releasing the Treble10 dataset, a new open dataset containing broadband room impulse responses (RIRs) and speech-convolved acoustic scenes from ten distinct furnished rooms. The dataset is now freely available on the Hugging Face Hub for non-commercial research. This collaboration aims to lower the barrier to entry for audio and speech machine learning research by providing high-quality, physics-based acoustic data that was previously difficult to obtain or reproduce.
