Stationarity is induced by taking a wavelet transform of the process. A parametric model is fitted to the result. The error incurred in fitting the model is shown to preserve the singularity manifested in the transform. The error is then used to establish a statistical detection test that is free of any prior knowledge about the class of signals being analyzed, and of any user input.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":105228,"journal":{"name":"[1992] Proceedings of the IEEE-SP International Symposium on Time-Frequency and Time-Scale Analysis","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125956127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sensors are assumed to be imaging an environment containing spatially distributed, and possibly moving, sources. The processor combines several temporal and spatial wavelet transforms to produce a high-resolution spatial image of the environment. It removes the conventional (narrowband) assumptions, so that many more environments can be imaged. Rapidly moving, near-field sources can be localized with high resolution by using this method. Adding sensors to the array to view the environment yields further improvements in resolution. Each sensor added provides an additional degree of information about the environment.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":105228,"journal":{"name":"[1992] Proceedings of the IEEE-SP International Symposium on Time-Frequency and Time-Scale Analysis","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116179962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These subtle fluctuations are not revealed by spectrogram analysis. It is shown that methods of time-frequency analysis such as the reduced interference distribution (RID) reveal both the tonal structure and the more subtle modulation structure.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":105228,"journal":{"name":"[1992] Proceedings of the IEEE-SP International Symposium on Time-Frequency and Time-Scale Analysis","volume":"273 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134262390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is shown that the major problem with the application of the spectrogram is its nonunique nature, i.e., the use of an arbitrary window for analysis. The concept of window matching is introduced, whereby the selection of the window used for analysis depends on the instantaneous signal characteristics at the given time-frequency point under analysis. Generalized instantaneous parameters are derived and subsequently used to demonstrate how the window matching may be applied. An adaptive window-matched spectrogram is generated.

These differ from the short-time Fourier transform, wavelet transform, and wavelet packets tilings in that they change over time. It is shown how orthonormal tilings can be achieved using time-varying orthogonal tree structures, which preserve orthogonality, even across transitions. One method is based on lapped orthogonal transforms, which makes it possible to change the number of channels in the transform. A second method is based on the construction of boundary filters and gives arbitrary tilings. An algorithm is presented which for a given signal decides on the best binary segmentation and which tree split to use for each segment. It is optimal in a rate-distortion sense. The results of experiments on test signals are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":105228,"journal":{"name":"[1992] Proceedings of the IEEE-SP International Symposium on Time-Frequency and Time-Scale Analysis","volume":"10 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130818449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of RTs is limited by noise. Scale-space filtering takes advantage of the inherently scale-like properties of an RT to provide a more robust signal representation across distortions. Some methods and properties of Gaussian scale-space filtering of RTs are examined. Scale trees (STs) and conventionally filtered (fixed-scale) RTs have been shown to be subsets of this process. Since the effect of scale-space filtering is to move segmentation uncertainty toward the leaves of the tree, other operations performed in the tree domain, such as filtering, can be optimized as well.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":105228,"journal":{"name":"[1992] Proceedings of the IEEE-SP International Symposium on Time-Frequency and Time-Scale Analysis","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114867220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
