Estimating the number of components of a multicomponent nonstationary signal using the short-term time-frequency Rényi entropy
(
Springer
, 2011 , Article)
The time-frequency Rényi entropy provides a measure of complexity of a nonstationary multicomponent signal in the time-frequency plane. When the complexity of a signal corresponds to the number of its components, then this ...
A time–frequency based approach for generalized phase synchrony assessment in nonstationary multivariate signals
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
This paper proposes a new approach to estimate the phase synchrony among nonstationary multivariate signals using the linear relationships between their instantaneous frequency (IF) laws. For cases where nonstationary ...
Image quality metrics based multifocus image fusion
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference)
We describe an innovative methodology for block based multifocus
image fusion in the spatial domain. The main idea is
to use blind or no reference blur metrics for image fusion applications.
Two blur quality metrics ...
An automatic time-frequency procedure for interference suppression by exploiting their geometrical features
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference)
This paper presents an adaptive method for interference suppression in the Wigner-Ville distribution. The structure of the artifacts in the Wigner-Ville distribution has been analyzed to optimally mask the signal Wigner-Ville ...
Accelerometer-based fetal movement detection
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference)
Monitoring fetal wellbeing is a compelling problem in modern obstetrics. Clinicians have become increasingly aware of the link between fetal activity (movement), well-being, and later developmental outcome. We have recently ...
A Nonlinear Model of Newborn EEG with Nonstationary Inputs
(
Springer US
, 2010 , Article)
Newborn EEG is a complex multiple channel
signal that displays nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics.
Recent studies have focussed on characterizing the
manifestation of seizure on the EEG for the purpose of
automated ...
Improved Discrete Definition of Quadratic Time-Frequency Distributions
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Article)
Computation of a time-frequency distribution (TFD) requires a discrete version of the continuous distribution. This discrete TFD (DTFD) should be free from aliasing and conserve all the important mathematical properties ...
Time-frequency approach to radar detection, imaging, and classification
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
One of the central problems in exploiting the radar data is the analysis of atime series. The problem at hand is how to extract the information present in the data and use it to its full potential. Traditionally, radar ...
Accurate and efficient implementation of the time–frequency matched filter
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
The discrete time-frequency matched filter should replicate the continuoustime-frequency matched filter, but the methods differ. To avoid aliasing, thediscrete method transforms the real-valued signal to the complex-valued ...
Multiple-view time-frequency distribution based on the empirical mode decomposition
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
This study proposes a novel, composite time-frequency distribution (TFD) constructed using a multiple-view approach. This composite TFD utilises the intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) of the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) ...
