function [f0_time,f0_value,SHR,f0_candidates]=shrp(Y,Fs,F0MinMax,frame_length,timestep,SHR_Threshold,ceiling,med_smooth,CHECK_VOICING)
% SHRP - a pitch determination algorithm based on Subharmonic-to-Harmonic Ratio (SHR)
% [f0_time,f0_value,SHR,f0_candidates]=shrp(Y,Fs[,F0MinMax,frame_length,TimeStep,SHR_Threshold,Ceiling,med_smooth,CHECK_VOICING])
%
% Input parameters (There are 9):
%
% Y: Input data
% Fs: Sampling frequency (e.g., 16000 Hz)
% F0MinMax: 2-d array specifies the F0 range. [minf0 maxf0], default: [50 550]
% Quick solutions:
% For male speech: [50 250]
% For female speech: [120 400]
% frame_length: length of each frame in millisecond (default: 40 ms)
% TimeStep: Interval for updating short-term analysis in millisecond (default: 10 ms)
% SHR_Threshold: Subharmonic-to-harmonic ratio threshold in the range of [0,1] (default: 0.4).
% If the estimated SHR is greater than the threshold, the subharmonic is regarded as F0 candidate,
% Otherwise, the harmonic is favored.
% Ceiling: Upper bound of the frequencies that are used for estimating pitch. (default: 1250 Hz)
% med_smooth: the order of the median smoothing (default: 0 - no smoothing);
% CHECK_VOICING: check voicing. Current voicing determination algorithm is kind of crude.
% 0: no voicing checking (default)
% 1: voicing checking
% Output parameters:
%
% f0_time: an array stores the times for the F0 points
% f0_value: an array stores F0 values
% SHR: an array stores subharmonic-to-harmonic ratio for each frame
% f0_candidates: a matrix stores the f0 candidates for each frames, currently two f0 values generated for each frame.
% Each row (a frame) contains two values in increasing order, i.e., [low_f0 higher_f0].
% For SHR=0, the first f0 is 0. The purpose of this is that when you want to test different SHR
% thresholds, you don't need to re-run the whole algorithm. You can choose to select the lower or higher
% value based on the shr value of this frame.
