Add CARFAC_Design_Doc.txt, CARFAC_Run_Segment.m, and some renames; rename various variables to be more parallel; clean up init code and such.

function [naps, CF] = CARFAC_Run_Segment(CF, input_waves)
% function [naps, CF, decim_naps] = CARFAC_Run_Segment(CF, input_waves)
% 
% This function runs the CARFAC; that is, filters a 1 or more channel
% sound input segment to make one or more neural activity patterns (naps);
% it can be called multiple times for successive segments of any length,
% as long as the returned CF with modified state is passed back in each
% time.
%
% input_waves is a column vector if there's just one audio channel;
% more generally, it has a row per time sample, a column per audio channel.
%
% naps has a row per time sample, a column per filterbank channel, and
% a layer per audio channel if more than 1.
% decim_naps is like naps but time-decimated by the int CF.decimation.
%
% the input_waves are assumed to be sampled at the same rate as the
% CARFAC is designed for; a resampling may be needed before calling this.
%
% The function works as an outer iteration on time, updating all the
% filters and AGC states concurrently, so that the different channels can
% interact easily.  The inner loops are over filterbank channels, and
% this level should be kept efficient.
%
% See other functions for designing and characterizing the CARFAC:
% CF = CARFAC_Design(fs, CF_CAR_params, CF_AGC_params, n_ears)
% transfns = CARFAC_Transfer_Functions(CF, to_chans, from_chans)

[n_samp, n_ears] = size(input_waves);

if n_ears ~= CF.n_ears
  error('bad number of input_waves channels passed to CARFAC_Run')
end

n_ch = CF.n_ch;
naps = zeros(n_samp, n_ch, n_ears);  % allocate space for result

detects = zeros(n_ch, n_ears);
for k = 1:n_samp
  % at each time step, possibly handle multiple channels
  for ear = 1:n_ears
    [car_out, CF.CAR_state(ear)] = CARFAC_CAR_Step( ...
      input_waves(k, ear), CF.CAR_coeffs, CF.CAR_state(ear));
    
    % update IHC state & output on every time step, too
    [ihc_out, CF.IHC_state(ear)] = CARFAC_IHC_Step( ...
      car_out, CF.IHC_coeffs, CF.IHC_state(ear));
    
    detects(:, ear) = ihc_out;  % for input to AGC, and out to SAI
    naps(k, :, ear) = ihc_out;  % output to neural activity pattern  
  end
  % run the AGC update step, taking input from IHC_state, 
  % decimating internally, all ears at once due to mixing across them:
  [CF.AGC_state, updated] = CARFAC_AGC_Step( ...
    CF.AGC_coeffs, detects, CF.AGC_state);
  
  % connect the feedback from AGC_state to CAR_state when it updates
  if updated
    CF = CARFAC_Close_AGC_Loop(CF);
  end
