TL;DR: A time-varying optimalwindow width (TVOWW) and an adaptive optimal window width selection schemes to optimize the performance of several nonlinear-type time–frequency analyses, including the reassignment method and its variations are proposed.
Abstract: We propose a time-varying optimal window width (TVOWW) and an adaptive optimal window width selection schemes to optimize the performance of several nonlinear-type time–frequency analyses, including the reassignment method and its variations. A window rendering the most concentrated distribution in the time–frequency representation is regarded as the optimal window. The TVOWW selection scheme is particularly useful for signals that comprise fast-varying instantaneous frequencies and small spectral gaps. To demonstrate the efficacy of the method, in addition to analyzing synthetic signals, we study an atomic time-varying dipole moment driven by two-color mid-infrared laser fields in attosecond physics and near-threshold harmonics of a hydrogen atom in the strong laser field.

TL;DR: In this paper, a time-frequency analysis of sound waves detected by a microphone during the friction of Hadfield's steel has been performed using wavelet transform and window Fourier transform methods, revealing a relationship between the appearance of quasi-periodic intensity outbursts in the acoustic response signals and the processes responsible for the formation of wear products.
Abstract: Time-frequency analysis of sound waves detected by a microphone during the friction of Hadfield’s steel has been performed using wavelet transform and window Fourier transform methods. This approach reveals a relationship between the appearance of quasi-periodic intensity outbursts in the acoustic response signals and the processes responsible for the formation of wear products. It is shown that the time-frequency analysis of acoustic emission in a tribosystem can be applied, along with traditional approaches, to studying features in the wear and friction process.

TL;DR: The robustness of the estimation against noise is studied, both theoretically and experimentally, and the performance is assessed in comparison with two state-of-the-art algorithms: an unmodified version of the reassignment method and a quadratically interpolated fast Fourier transform method.
Abstract: This paper proposes an extension of the applicability of phase-vocoder-based frequency estimators for generalized sinusoidal models, which include phase and amplitude modulations. A first approach, called phase corrected vocoder (PCV), takes into account the modification of the Fourier phases resulting from these modulations. Another approach is based on an adaptation of the principles of the time-frequency reassignment and is referred to as the reassigned vocoder (RV). The robustness of the estimation against noise is studied, both theoretically and experimentally, and the performance is assessed in comparison with two state-of-the-art algorithms: an unmodified version of the reassignment method and a quadratically interpolated fast Fourier transform method (QIFFT).

TL;DR: An integrated design method of FD systems using the absolute value of residual signal as evaluation function is proposed, which leads to a residual generator which is much easier to be realized.
Abstract: Problems related to the integrated design of robust fault detection (FD) systems are studied. First, it is revealed that due to the time window introduced to realize the 2-norm based evaluation function, an optimal design of a FD system with the 2-norm based evaluation function may not ensure the expected optimal performance when the system is realized in real applications. To solve this problem, an integrated design method of FD systems using the absolute value of residual signal as evaluation function is then proposed. It leads to a residual generator which is much easier to be realized. Different from the usual 2-norm based approaches whose mathematical basis is the relationship between the energy of the output and input signals of a dynamic system, a relationship between the instant power of the output signal and the energy of the past input signal of a dynamic system is established and further used for FD system design. Another new kind of evaluation function based on the absolute value of wavelet transform of residual signal and the corresponding integrated design approach for FD systems are further proposed.

TL;DR: This area of NIRS analysis of cerebral autoregulation is reviewed, and enhancements to this form of analysis are suggested.
Abstract: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has been proposed as a suitable technique for the analysis of cerebral autoregulation as it provides a simpler acquisition methodology and more artifact-free signal. A number of sophisticated wavelet transform methods have recently emerged to quantify the cerebral autoregulation mechanism using NIRS and blood pressure signals. These provide an enhanced partitioning of signal information via the time–frequency plane, which facilitates improved extraction of the components of interest. This area is reviewed, and enhancements to this form of analysis are suggested.
