tomwalters@0: .TH SP_WEIGHTS 1 "1 September 1993" tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH NAME tomwalters@0: sp_weights \- Map auditory image frames onto spiral sector-weights contours. tomwalters@0: (Input and output in binary shorts). tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH SYNTAX tomwalters@0: sp_weights [arguments] [file] tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH DESCRIPTION tomwalters@0: Map auditory image onto spiral sector-weights contour. tomwalters@0: Read auditory image frames (using "output" model option so that frames tomwalters@0: have a pipes header for frame dimensions). tomwalters@0: Use either gensai or genspl output, (but remember that their tomwalters@0: default options are different, particularly pwidth, nwidth, and dencf). tomwalters@0: For each frame, write a sector-weights contour on the stdout, consisting tomwalters@0: of m binary shorts, where m is the given number of sectors. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: The sector-weights are an economical representation of each frame (just tomwalters@0: 64 numbers per frame) from which both loudness and pitch-strength can be tomwalters@0: computed. tomwalters@0: tomwalters@0: .SH EXAMPLES tomwalters@0: .LP tomwalters@0: echo q | genspl output=stdout file | sp_weights > file.wts tomwalters@0: .SH COPYRIGHT tomwalters@0: .LP tomwalters@0: Copyright (c) Applied Psychology Unit, Medical Research Council, 1995 tomwalters@0: .LP tomwalters@0: Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software without fee tomwalters@0: is hereby granted for research purposes, provided that this copyright tomwalters@0: notice appears in all copies and in all supporting documentation, and that tomwalters@0: the software is not redistributed for any fee (except for a nominal tomwalters@0: shipping charge).
