DEMO_LYON2011 - excitation patterns of the CARFAC model

Program code:

%DEMO_LYON2011 excitation patterns of the CARFAC model
%
%   This script generates a tone at 30 dB SPL and feeds it to the cascade of 
%   asymmetric resonators with fast-acting compression (CARFAC) model. The 
%   excitation pattern is formed by taking the RMS of the output channels.
