TL;DR: The new method is applied to continuous wave electron spin resonance spectra and it is found that it increases the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by more than 32 dB without distorting the signal, whereas standard denoising methods improve the SNR by less than 10 dB and with some distortion.
Abstract: A new method is presented to denoise 1-D experimental signals using wavelet transforms. Although the state-of-the-art wavelet denoising methods perform better than other denoising methods, they are not very effective for experimental signals. Unlike images and other signals, experimental signals in chemical and biophysical applications, for example, are less tolerant to signal distortion and under-denoising caused by the standard wavelet denoising methods. The new method: 1) provides a method to select the number of decomposition levels to denoise; 2) uses a new formula to calculate noise thresholds that does not require noise estimation; 3) uses separate noise thresholds for positive and negative wavelet coefficients; 4) applies denoising to the approximation component; and 5) allows the flexibility to adjust the noise thresholds. The new method is applied to continuous wave electron spin resonance spectra and it is found that it increases the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by more than 32 dB without distorting the signal, whereas standard denoising methods improve the SNR by less than 10 dB and with some distortion. In addition, its computation time is more than six times faster.

TL;DR: The generalised S transform is described, a variant of the wavelet transform which allows calculation of the instantaneous phase of a signal, and its application to the decomposition of vibration signals from mechanical systems such as gearboxes for the early detection of failure.

TL;DR: In this article, a non-equispaced fast Fourier transform (FFT) is proposed for computerized tomography reconstruction, which is similar to the algorithms of Dutt and Rokhlin and Beylkin.
Abstract: In this article we describe a non-equispaced fast Fourier transform. It is similar
to the algorithms of Dutt and Rokhlin and Beylkin but is based on an exact Fourier series
representation. This results in a greatly simplified analysis and increased flexibility. The latter
can be used to achieve more efficiency. Accuracy and efficiency of the resulting algorithm are
illustrated by numerical examples.
In the second part of the article the non-equispaced FFT is applied to the reconstruction
problem in Computerized Tomography. This results in a different view of the gridding method of
O’Sullivan and in a new ultra fast reconstruction algorithm. The new reconstruction algorithm
outperforms the filtered backprojection by a speedup factor of up to 100 on standard hardware
while still producing excellent reconstruction quality.

TL;DR: A new architecture is proposed that encodes a primary image to white noise based on iterative fractional Fourier transform that can provide additional keys for encryption to make the code more difficult to break.

TL;DR: An approach that enables the identification of local signal structures--a generalization of wavelet transform called Matching Pursuit--is presented, which offers a possibility of determination of an 'instantaneous frequency' with the accuracy close to the theoretical limit.
Abstract: Wavelet transform and multiresolution decomposition are described. Examples of the application of orthogonal wavelet transform to acoustic evoked potentials and otoacoustic emissions (OEA) are given and basic features of wavelet packets and wavelet network methods are characterized. An approach that enables the identification of local signal structures - a generalization of wavelet transform called Matching Pursuit - is presented. In the framework of this method the signal is decomposed into time-frequency ‘atoms', which offers a possibility of determination of an ‘instantaneous frequency’ with the accuracy close to the theoretical limit. The method is illustrated by application to OAE signals. The advantages and limitations of the methods presented are discussed.
