Arguments

winSurp	surprisal analysis window, ms (Inf = from sound onset to each point)
input	audSpec = auditory spectrogram (audSpectrogram, speed ~= 0.4x), spec = ordinary STFT spectrogram (spectrogram, speed ~= 0.25x), env = analytic envelope (getRMS, speed ~= 33x)
audSpec_pars, spec_pars, env_pars	a list of parameters passed to audSpectrogram (if input = 'audSpec'), spectrogram (if input = 'spec'), or getRMS (if input = 'env')
method	acf = change in maximum autocorrelation after adding the final point, np = nonlinear prediction (see nonlinPred - works but is VERY slow)
sameLagAllFreqs	(only for method = 'acf') if TRUE, the best_lag is calculated by averaging the ACFs of all channels, and the same best_lag is used to calculate the surprisal in each frequency channel (we expect the same "rhythm" for all frequencies); if FALSE, the best_lag is calculated separately for each frequency channel (we can track different "rhythms" at different frequencies)
weightByAmpl	if TRUE, ACFs and surprisal are weighted by max amplitude per frequency channel
rescale	if TRUE, surprisal is normalized from (-Inf, Inf) to [-1, 1]
plot	if TRUE, plots the auditory spectrogram and the suprisalLoudness contour
whatToPlot	"surprisal" = pure surprisal, "surprisalLoudness" = surprisal x increase in subjective loudness
osc	"none" = no oscillogram; "linear" = on the original scale; "dB" = in decibels
heights	a vector of length two specifying the relative height of the spectrogram and the oscillogram (including time axes labels)
ylim	frequency range to plot, kHz (defaults to 0 to Nyquist frequency). NB: still in kHz, even if yScale = bark, mel, or ERB
contrast	controls the sharpness or contrast of the image: <0 = decrease contrast, 0 = no change, >0 increase contrast. Recommended range approximately (-1, 1). The spectrogram is raised to the power of exp(3 * contrast)
brightness	makes the image lighter or darker: <0 = darker, 0 = no change, >0 = lighter, range (-1, 1). The color palette is preserved, so "brightness" works by capping an increasing proportion of image at the lightest or darkest color. To lighten or darken the palette, just change the colors instead
maxPoints	the maximum number of "pixels" in the oscillogram (if any) and spectrogram; good for quickly plotting long audio files; defaults to c(1e5, 5e5); does not affect reassigned spectrograms
padWithSilence	if TRUE, pads the sound with just enough silence to resolve the edges properly (only the original region is plotted, so the apparent duration doesn't change)
colorTheme	black and white ('bw'), as in seewave package ('seewave'), matlab-type palette ('matlab'), or any palette from palette such as 'heat.colors', 'cm.colors', etc
col	actual colors, eg rev(rainbow(100)) - see ?hcl.colors for colors in base R (overrides colorTheme)
extraContour	a vector of arbitrary length scaled in Hz (regardless of yScale, but nonlinear yScale also warps the contour) that will be plotted over the spectrogram (eg pitch contour); can also be a list with extra graphical parameters such as lwd, col, etc. (see examples)
xlab, ylab, main, mar, xaxp	graphical parameters for plotting
grid	if numeric, adds n = grid dotted lines per kHz
width, height, units, res	graphical parameters for saving plots passed to png
...	other graphical parameters
