Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) General 3D sound localization methods for multiple sound sources with
limited computational resources, which are mainly based on
interpolation or sound source clustering, suffer from localization
errors and/or serious quality degradation if the number of
reproducible sound sources is restricted especially in embedded
systems. In this paper, we propose a new method based on fuzzy
clustering, in which interpolation and clustering are executed
simultaneously. Computational cost evaluation and subjective listening
test have been performed to demonstrate the possibility of embedded
implementation and the effectiveness of the proposed method.
