function [s,fs]=competingtalkers(varargin)
%COMPETINGTALKERS Load one of several test signals
% Usage: s=competingtalkers(signame);
% [s,fs]=competingtalkers(signame);
%
% COMPETINGTALKERS(signame) loads one of several test signals consisting
% of competing talkers. All the talkers are taken from the TIMIT speech
% corpus:
% http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/Catalog/CatalogEntry.jsp?catalogId=LDC93S1.
%
% The signals have 2 channels and are all recorded with a sampling rate of
% 16 kHz.
%
% [sig,fs]=COMPETINGTALKERS(signame) additionally returns the sampling
% frequency fs.
%
% The value of signame may be one of:
%
% 'one_of_three' XXX Description missing
%
% 'two_of_three' XXX Description missing
%
% 'three_of_three' XXX Description missing
%
% 'one_speaker_reverb'
% XXX Description missing
%
% 'two_speakers' XXX Description missing
%
% 'five_speakers' XXX Description missing
%
% 'bnoise' Speech shaped noise
%
% Examples:
% ---------
%
% The following plot shows an estimate of the power spectral density of
% the first channels of the speech shaped noise:
%
% s=competingtalkers('bnoise');
% pwelch(s(:,1),hamming(150));
