Matlab Code (includes MEX binaries for Windows/Linux/Intel Mac): I hope you will find this code useful, but please understand that I am not in a position to provide technical support, as I am no longer working on this project. Take a look at the included "README.pdf" file to get started. Finally, please cite this publication if you use this code.
