Overview
Time-frequency analysis has been the object of intense research activity in the last decade. Wavelets have become known as a powerful took with which to manipulate signals of a complex nature, such as those with random, noisy, or nonstationary features Practical Time-Frequency Analysis is the ninth volume in the series Wavelet Analysis and Its Applications. The purpose of this book is to give a self-contained presentation of the techniques of time-frequency/time-scale analaysis and to provide a set of useful tools, in the form of computer programs, to perform the analysis. This unified approach should appeal to applied mathematicians, statisticians, and signal processing engineers alike.Audience: Students and practitioners of applied mathematics, computer science, and electrical engineering. Students and engineers in signal processing, and imaging engineers. Students studying wavelet analysis and image compression. Physicists and statisticians.

Uses the S computer language to introduce statisticians to the continuous Gabor and wavelet transforms that electrical engineers have been using for some time to detect, de-noise, and reconstruct signals, especially in contexts thick with noisy signals and possibly non- stationary features. Begins with a review of the classical spectral analysis of deterministic and stationary random processes. Then details the two transforms themselves and describes applications, emphasizing speech analysis but also including medical and military uses. Also includes a library of functions of the computer language and the programs used for the computations in the text. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)Book Details
