VERHULST2018 - Cochlear transmission-line model (improved, incl. brainstem)

Usage

output = verhulst2018(insig,fs,fc_flag)
[output, cf] = verhulst2018(insig,fs,fc_flag, ...)

Input parameters

`insig`	the input signal to be processed. Each column is processed in parallel, so it is possible to run several simulations in parallel
`fs`	sampling rate (Hz)
`fc_flag`	list of frequencies specifying the probe positions along the basilar membrane, or 'all' to probe all 1000 cochlear sections, or 'abr' to probe 401 locations between 112 and 12000 Hz.
`numH`	number of high-SR fibers. Must be larger than zero.
`numM`	number of medium-SR fibers. Can be zero.
`numL`	number of low-SR fibers. Can be zero.

System Message: WARNING/2 (<string>, line 35)

Option list ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

'ic': calculate the IC responses

Output parameters

`cf`	Center frequencies (Hz) of the probed basiliar membrane sections.
`output`	Structure with the following fields:
`fs_an`	Sample rate (Hz) of the output.
`fs_abr`	Sample rate (Hz) of the brainstem sections (IC, CN, W1, W3, and W5).
`w1`	Wave 1, output of the AN model.
`w3`	Wave 3, output of the CN model.
`w5`	Wave 5, output of the IC model.
`an_summed`	Sum of HSR, MSR and LSR responses (per channel) and the input to the CN (modelled by `verhulst2015_cn`). Provided by default. Can be disabled by the flag `no_an`.
`ihc`	IHC receptor potential. Provided by default. Can be disabled by the flag `no_ihc`.
`cn`	Detailed output of the CN. Provided by default. Can be disabled by the flag `no_cn`.
`ic`	Detailed output of the IC. Provided by default. Can be disabled by the flag `no_ic`.

Description

The output can optionally provide the following information:: anfH : responses of the high-SR fibers. Optional, only when called with flag anfH. anfM : responses of the medium-SR fibers. Optional, only when called with flag anfM. anfL : responses of the low-SR fibers. Optional, only when called with flag anfL. v : velocity of the basilar membrane sections [time section channel] and input to the AN (modelled by verhulst2018_ihctransduction. Optional, provided only when called with flag v. y : displacement of the basilar membrane sections [time section channel]. Can be disabled by the flag no_y. oae : ottoacoustic emission as sound pressure at the middle ear. Can be disabled by the flag oae.
