VICENTE2020 - Compute the effective SNR taking into account BU and BE

Usage

[predicted_SNR, BE, BU] = vicente2020(target_in,int_in,fs)

Input parameters

target_in target
int_in interferer
fs sampling frequency [Hz]

Output parameters

predicted_SNR SNR predicted by the model
BE better-ear advantage
BU binaural masking level difference advantage

Description

VICENTE2020 computes the effective SNR taking into account audibility (audiogram), BU and BE by respective time frames, taking the target and interferer signals (sampled at fs) as inputs, along with the internal noise parameters computed using vicente2020_internalnoise
