EXP_VERHULST2012 - Compute figurs from the Verhulst paper

Program code:

function output=exp_verhulst2012(varargin)
%EXP_VERHULST2012 Compute figurs from the Verhulst paper
%
%   Usage: output = exp_verhulst2012(flag)
%
%   This script reproduces figures 2a and 2c from Verhulst et al.  "Nonlinear time-domain cochlear
%   model for transient stimulation and human otoacoustic emission."  The
%   Journal of the Acoustical Society of America 132.6 (2012): 3842-3848.
%
%   Requirements and installation: 
%   ------------------------------
%
%   1) Python >2.6 is required with numpy and scipi packages. On Linux, use sudo apt-get install python-scipy python-numpy
% 
%   2) Compiled files with a C-compiler, e.g. gcc. In amtbase/src/verhulst start make (Linux) or make.bat (Windows)
%
%   3) On linux, when problems with GFORTRAN lib appear, try sudo ln -sf /usr/lib64/libgfortran.so.3.0.0 /mymatlabroot/sys/os/glnxa64/libgfortran.so.3 (mymatlabroot is usually /usr/local/MATLAB/version
%               
%   Examples:
%   ---------
%
%   To display Figure 2a from the Verhulst et al. (2012) use:
%
%     exp_verhulst2012('fig2a');
%
%   To display Figure 2c from the Verhulst et al. (2012) use:
%
%     exp_verhulst2012('fig2c');
