%BAUMGARTNER2014_SIMILARITYESTIMATION Similarity estimation with listener-specific sensitivity
% Usage: si = baumgartner2014_similarityestimation(sigma)
%
% Input parameters:
% sigma : internal distance metrics
%
% Output parameters:
% si : similarity indices
%
% BAUMGARTNER2014_SIMILARITYESTIMATION(...) maps internal distance
% metrics to similarity indices according to listener-specific
% sensitivity
%
% BAUMGARTNER2014_SIMILARITYESTIMATION accepts the following optional parameters:
%
% 'S',S Set the listener-specific sensitivity threshold
% (threshold of the sigmoid link function representing
% the psychometric link between transformation from the
% distance metric and similarity index) to S.
% Default value is 1.
%
% 'gamma',G Set the degree of selectivity
% (slope of the sigmoid link function representing
% the psychometric link between transformation from the
% distance metric and similarity index) to G.
% Default value is 6.
