Abstract
Sound source localization and tracking plays an important role in a teleconferencing system and social robot applications. Given the location of a sound, the social robot can be endowed with the capability of sound event awareness, which results in enhanced interactionwith human beings. This chapter presents the problem of sound source localization and tracking, highlights their challenges, and reviews several existing techniques. In addition, a speech source tracking algorithm is proposed in order to achieve robust speaker tracking in the presence of sound interferers. Simulation is conducted and shows the effectiveness of the proposed method in a typical room environment.
