LABACK2023
Contextual lateralization based on interaural level differences

Program code:

function output = laback2023(insig, fs, varargin)
%LABACK2023   Contextual lateralization based on interaural level differences
%
%   Usage: [outsig, fc] = laback2023(insig,fs);
%          [outsig, fc] = laback2023(insig,fs,...);
%          [outsig, fc, params] = laback2023(insig,fs,...);
%
%   Input parameters:
%     insig  : input acoustic signal.
%     fs     : sampling rate.
%
%   Output parameters:
%     outsig  : output acoustic signal.
%     fc      : filter bank center frequencies.
%  
%   LABACK2023(insig,fs) computes the internal representation of the
%   signal insig sampled with a frequency of fs Hz.
%  
%   [outsig,fc,mfc]=LABACK2023(...) additionally returns the center
%   frequencies of the filter bank and the center frequencies of the
%   modulation filterbank.
