dau1997_preproc - Auditory model from Dau et. al. 1997

Program code:

function [outsig, fc, mfc] = dau1997_preproc(insig, fs, varargin);
%dau1997_preproc   Auditory model from Dau et. al. 1997
%   Usage: [outsig, fc] = dau1997_preproc(insig,fs);
%          [outsig, fc] = dau1997_preproc(insig,fs,...);
%
%   Input parameters:
%     insig  : input acoustic signal.
%     fs     : sampling rate.
%  
%   DAU1997_PREPROC(insig,fs) computes the internal representation of the
%   signal insig sampled with a frequency of fs Hz.
%  
%   [outsig,fc,mfc]=DAU1997_PREPROC(...) additionally returns the center
%   frequencies of the filter bank and the center frequencies of the
%   modulation filterbank.
%  
%   The model consists of the following stages:
%   
%   1) a gammatone filter bank with 1-erb spaced filtes.
%
%   2) an envelope extraction stage done by half-wave rectification
%      followed by low-pass filtering to 1000 Hz.
%
%   3) an adaptation stage modelling nerve adaptation by a cascade of 5
%      loops.
%
%   4) a modulation filterbank
%
%   Any of the optinal parameters for AUDITORYFILTERBANK,
%   IHCENVELOPE and ADAPTLOOP may be optionally specified for this
%   function. They will be passed to the corresponding functions.
