DATA_MIDDLEBROOKS1999 - Statistics about non-individualized HRTFs

Usage

data = data_middlebrooks1999

Output parameters

data.le_own
local lateral RMS error (LE) when localizing with own HRTFs
data.le_other
LE when localizing with others' HRTFs
data.lb_own
magnitude of lateral bias (LB) when localizing with own HRTFs; upper-rear quadrant excluded from analysis
data.lb_other
LB when localizing with others' HRTFs
data.qe_own
quadrant error rate (QE) when localizing with own HRTFs
data.qe_other
QE when localizing with others' HRTFs
data.pe_own
local polar RMS error (PE) when localizing with own HRTFs
data.pe_other
PE when localizing with others' HRTFs
data.pb_own
magnitude of polar bias (PB) when localizing with own HRTFs; upper-rear quadrant excluded from analysis
data.pb_other
PB when localizing with others' HRTFs

data_middlebrooks1999 returns statistics summary from Fig. 13 (Middlebrooks, 1999b) showing the effect of non-individualized HRTFs.

Statistics of those parameters are stored as .mean and .quantiles representing the arithmetic mean and {0,5,25,50,75,95,100} quantiles, respectively.
