LAVANDIER2022 - Compute the binaural 'effective' target-to-interferer ratio

Usage

[twoears_benefit, weighted_bmld, weighted_better_ear] = lavandier2022(target_in,int_in,fs)

Input parameters

target_in target
int_in interferer
fs sampling frequency [Hz]

Output parameters

twoears_benefit effective target to interferer ratio
weighted_bmld weighted binaural masking level difference
weighted_better_ear
 weighted better ear advantage

Description

lavandier2022 computes the binaural 'effective' target-to-interferer ratio. target_in and int_in are signals produced at the ears: stereo files (2-column matrices) of the same sampling frequency fs
