How it was validated
As reported by the project; LISQM has not run the code. Two implementations that agree can still share the same error. Kinds of evidence.
- Fluctuation strength (Osses et al.) · Osses et al. (2016)
standard or paper data
demos/demo_osses2016a.mreproduces the figures of the paper with the included stimuli (AM and FM tones, AM noise and excerpts of real sounds).
Notes
- The header says the algorithm was "adapted from the Roughness model" and programmed by Alejandro Osses and Rodrigo García at TU/e, 2014–2016.
- The model is also documented in Osses Vecchi (2018), PhD thesis, TU Eindhoven (Chapter 2 and Appendix B), linked from the README.
- Version 1.0 is a git tag of 2019-12-31; the code was optimised after the tag, on 2020-01-02.
