[AUDITORY] Auditory Model Framework (and request for Klemm 1920 paper) (Mathias Dietz )

Subject: [AUDITORY] Auditory Model Framework (and request for Klemm 1920 paper) From: Mathias Dietz <mdietz@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 6 Dec 2017 14:59:52 +0000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY> --_000_YTXPR0101MB1184E0BA9E201CA1BF42C78AB0320YTXPR0101MB1184_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear List, At ARO 2016 about 50 auditory model developers and model users met for a di= scussion on how to improve applicability and comparability of auditory mode= ls. A team of 8 modelers from 7 labs moved on to develop an interface conne= cting models with experiments and a software frameworks for this purpose - = in Matlab/Octave and in Python. In brief it operates through a file I/O. Ex= periment sends *.wav file to model and the model sends a response file to t= he experiment which has the same format as you would obtain from a real exp= eriment (e.g. a spike train or the selection of a target interval). The fra= mework is compatible with existing toolboxes such as AFC or the Auditory Mo= del Toolbox. Throughout the process we had a certain focus on binaural hearing but the f= inal product should be equally useful for other models and experiments. We now have a first version online and hope someone finds it useful: https://github.com/model-initiative It is ideal if you want to compare several models on the same experiment or= if you have models and experiments in different programming languages. Its= particularly useful for modeling AFC type experiments. More information can be found in the readme.pdf on github and in the Hearin= g Research paper we just published on the subject. Again there is a binaura= l focus especially Sec. 2 (review on binaural models) but the framework des= cribed in Sec. 6 is fairly universal: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378595517302605 if you do not have access, you find a pre-print here: http://neural-reckoning.org/pub_framework_comparing_binaural_models.html If you want to give the framework a try I recommend the quick_example.txt i= nstruction. We welcome feedback, beta testers, and anyone who wants to use or improve t= he framework. On a different topic I am looking for a historic paper: Klemm, O. (1920). =DCber den Einfluss des binauralen Zeitunterschiedes auf = die Lokalisation. Arch. ges.
