cochlear_map: cochlear_map

In abeith/chimeRa: Create Auditory Chimeras with R

Description

cochlear_map Convert frequency to distance along the basilar membrane using M.C. Liberman's cochlear frequency map for the cat.

Usage

cochlear_map(f, Fmax = 20000)

Arguments

f	Frequency in Hz
Fmax	Maximum frequency represented on the basilar membrane in Hz. By default, this is 20 kHz, the value for the human cochlea. Setting Fmax to 57 kHz gives a map appropriate for the cat cochlea.

Value

Returns percent distance from apex of basilar membrane
