The simple auditory model simulator (SAMS) allows users to design, run and
evaluate auditory models. It is backed up by the extensive collection of
published and new models supplied by the development system for auditory modelling
(DSAM ), formerly known as LUTEar.
At the time of writing, SAMS is available for PC (Windows 98/NT/2000/Vista/7) and
UNIX platforms. (A Macintosh version is also possible.)
The installation SAMS contains a simulation (AIM.spf) which runs the Auditory Image Model
(AIM). This is the version of the AIM that Patterson and colleagues; recommend
as a replacement for the old AIM software (aimR8).
SAMS was previously called AMS. The name was changed due to a name conflict with another
application on the popular Ubuntu Linux platform
