Q2. What is the primary motivation for time-frequency analyses?
Signal non-stationarities are the primary motivation for time-frequency analyses, in which the power spectrum is computed over short windows of time.
Q3. What is the FWHM of a wavelet?
Note that a FWHM corresponding to one cycle actually means that more than one cycle will contribute to the wavelet, because there is still non-zero energy beyond the 50% gain boundaries used to define FWHM.
Q4. What is the FWHM of the Gaussian that is used to create the Morlet?
Interpreting the results of Morlet wavelet convolution relies on the assumption that the signal is stationary within the time window that the wavelet has non-zero energy.
Q5. What is the key parameter in time-frequency analysis?
A key parameter in time-frequency analysis is the one that governs the trade-off between temporal precision and spectral precision; it is not possible to have simultaneously arbitrarily good precision in both time and in frequency.
Q6. What is the funding for the research?
Funding: MXC is funded by an ERC-StG 638589 Abstract Morlet wavelets are frequently used for time-frequency analysis of non-stationary time series data,such as neuroelectrical signals recorded from the brain.
Q7. What is the inverse Fourier transform of the Gaussian?
The Gaussian in equation 4 creates the amplitude shape in the frequency domain; the time-domain wavelet can be obtained by the inverse Fourier transform of this envelope.
Q8. what is the definition of a complex morlet wavelet?
Typical definition of Morlet wavelets A complex Morlet wavelet w can be defined as the product of a complex sine wave and a Gaussian window:(1)where i is the imaginary operator ( ), f is frequency in Hz, and t is time in seconds.
Q9. What are the two considerations for selecting the width of a wavelet for time-frequency?
As mentioned earlier, there are two considerations for selecting the width of a wavelet for time-frequency analysis: signal processing and system quasi-stationary.
Q10. What is the power spectrum of the Fourier transform?
the power spectrum resulting from the Fourier transform is easily visually interpretable only for stationary signals; non-stationarities are encoded in the phase spectrum, which is typically impossible to interpret visually.
Q11. What is the main advantage of a Morlet wavelet for time-frequency analysis?
Advantages and assumptions of Morlet wavelets for time-frequency analysis A Morlet wavelet is defined as a sine wave tapered by a Gaussian (Figure 2, top row).
