-- Using the affective ratings

The affective annotations of the BEADS dataset
are exported to CSV and MATLAB variables. Also
there is a MATLAB function for accessing the 
affective ratings of the BEADS dataset. 

Directions on how to use the MATLAB's function
are in the help of the function. 

When using the BEADS dataset please site the
following publication:

-- Re-creating the binaural dataset

The BEADS binaural dataset can be re-created by the
appropriate MATLAB function. In order to use
that function the orignal IADS dataset and the
KEMAR HRTFs are needed. To obtain those please
navigate to the links:

* IADS dataset: http://csea.phhp.ufl.edu/media/iadsmessage.html
* KEMAR HRTFs: http://sound.media.mit.edu/resources/KEMAR.html

When re-creating the BEADS sounds and using the
BEADS dataset please cite the BEADS publication:

* 

And the corresponding publications of IADS dataset and KEMAR 
HRTFs. More information on the publications for IADS and KEMAR
can be found at the links of IADS and KEMAR (provided above).
