DATA_MIDDLEBROOKS1999
Statistics about non-individualized HRTFs

Program code:

function data = data_middlebrooks1999
%DATA_MIDDLEBROOKS1999 Statistics about non-individualized HRTFs
%   Usage: data = data_middlebrooks1999
%
%   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.
%
%   The data struct comprises the following fields:
%
%     'le_own'    local lateral RMS error (LE) when localizing with own
%                 HRTFs
%     'le_other'  LE when localizing with others' HRTFs
%     'lb_own'    magnitude of lateral bias (LB) when localizing with own
%                 HRTFs; upper-rear quadrant excluded from analysis
%     'lb_other'  LB when localizing with others' HRTFs
%     'qe_own'    quadrant error rate (QE) when localizing with own
%                 HRTFs
%     'qe_other'  QE when localizing with others' HRTFs
%     'pe_own'    local polar RMS error (PE) when localizing with own
%                 HRTFs
%     'pe_other'  PE when localizing with others' HRTFs
%     'pb_own'    magnitude of polar bias (PB) when localizing with own
%                 HRTFs; upper-rear quadrant excluded from analysis
%     'pb_other'  PB when localizing with others' HRTFs
