*preference rating prediction based on:

[1] S. Olive et al: "A Statistical Model That Predicts Listeners' Preference Ratings of In-Ear Headphones: Part 1" (2017)
[2] S. Olive et al: "A Statistical Model That Predicts Listeners' Preference Ratings of In-Ear Headphones: Part 2" (2017)
[3] S. Olive et al: "A Statistical Model That Predicts Listeners' Preference Ratings of Around-Ear and On-Ear Headphones" (2018)
The normalized preference ratings are used, where zero deviation from target equals a preference rating of 100
