MATLAB: Matlab read HTK feature

matlab htk

I use the HTK toolkit to extract feature(.mfc format)，and I want to use the Matlab to read the feature file. I use the code written by Alexis Bernard
function [ DATA, HTKCode ] = htkread( Filename )
fid=fopen(Filename,'r','b');
if fid<0,
 error(sprintf('Unable to read from file %s',Filename));
end
% Read number of frames
nSamp = fread(fid,1,'int32');
% Read sampPeriod
sampPeriod = fread(fid,1,'int32');
% Read sampSize
sampSize = fread(fid,1,'int16');
% Read HTK Code
HTKCode = fread(fid,1,'int16');
% Read the data
if bitget(HTKCode, 11),
      DIM=sampSize/2;
      nSamp = nSamp-4;
      disp(sprintf('htkread: Reading %d frames, dim %d, compressed, from          %s',nSamp,DIM,Filename)); 
    % Read the compression parameters
    A = fread(fid,[1 DIM],'float');
    B = fread(fid,[1 DIM],'float');
    % Read and uncompress the data
    DATA = fread(fid, [DIM nSamp], 'int16')';
    DATA = (repmat(B, [nSamp 1]) + DATA) ./ repmat(A, [nSamp 1]);
 else
    DIM=sampSize/4;
    % If not compressed: Read floating point data
    DATA = fread(fid, [DIM nSamp], 'float')';
end
fclose(fid);
But I always get the error like this ：
Error using repmat Requested 1879048188×1568 (21952.0GB) array exceeds maximum array size preference. Creation of arrays greater than this limit may take a long time and cause MATLAB to become unresponsive
Please help me, I don't know how to solve it

Your files are not big-endian, they are little-endian. They are expected to be big-endian.
To read them as little-endian, change line 18 of htkread.m from
fid=fopen(Filename,'r','b');
to
fid=fopen(Filename,'r','ieee-le');
