DATA_MACPHERSON2003 - Listener averages of polar error rates

Usage

data = data_macpherson2003

Output parameters

data.density
probed ripple densities in ripples/oct (Exp. I)
data.depth
probed ripple depths (peak-to-trough) in dB (Exp. II)
data.phase
probed ripple phases in radians (Exp. III)
data.pe_flat
PER for flat spectrum
data.pe_exp1
increase in PER as a function of ripple density at a ripple depth of 40dB (col. 1: 0-phase, col. 2: pi-phase)
data.pe_exp2
increase in PER as a function of ripple depth at a ripple density of 1 ripple/octave (col. 1: 0-phase, col. 2: pi-phase)
data.pe_exp3
increase in PER as a function of ripple phase at a ripple density of 1 ripple/octave and a ripple depth of 40dB

Description

data_macpherson2003 returns listener averages of polar error rates (PERs in %) from Macpherson & Middlebrooks (2003).
