Roughness: Footnote

First proposed by [[Helmholtz]], these models are quite popular in the psychoacoustics literature, and many variations have been developed over the years.

Here, I will use the classic roughness curve as derived by Plomp and Levelt in 1965.<ref>R. Plomp, W. J. M. Levelt (1965) [https://doi.org/10.1121/1.1909741 ''Tonal Consonance and Critical Bandwidth'']. J. Acoust. Soc. Am.</ref>

<ref group="note">This model does not take into account the amplitude of the partials. One may object that we should weight the contribution of beating according to the amplitude of the harmonics (i.e. 1/''n'') but this only makes the model worse (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.592).</ref>
