Wavelet Estimation of a Baseline Signal From Repeated Noisy Measurements by Vertical Block Shrinkage
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper a new wavelet shrinkage technique is proposed and investigated. When data consist of a multiplicity of related noisy signals, we propose a wavelet-based shrinkage estimation procedure to summarize all data components into a single regularized and representative signal (\base-line"). This fusion of information from di erent runs is done via Stein-type shrinkage rule resulting from an empirical Bayes argument. The proposed shrinkage estimators maximize the predictive density under appropriate model assumptions on the wavelet coeÆcients. Features of this model-induced shrinkage are that it is \block-vertical" and local in time. The method, called VERTISHRINK, is evaluated on a battery of test signals under various signal-to-noise ratios and various number of vector components. An application in estimating the base-line signal in an experiment in tumor physiology is provided as well.

Can Wavelet Denoising Improve Motor Unit Potential Template Estimation?
Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signals obtained from a contracted muscle contain valuable information on its activity and health status. Much of this information lies in motor unit potentials (MUPs) of its motor units (MUs), collected during the muscle contraction. Hence, accurate estimation of a MUP template for each MU is crucial. Objective: To investigate the possibility of improv...
متن کاملBayes Wavelet Shrinkage
Wavelet shrinkage is a novel method for data denoising and function estimation. M uller and Vidakovic (1995) propose a hierarchical prior on the wavelet coeecients and shrink them by applying the induced Bayes rule. In this paper, a diierent and more elastic hierarchical prior is elicited on the model parameters describing the wavelet coeecients. Exact Bayesian analysis is impossible and the sh...
متن کاملA New Method for Multisensor Data Fusion Based on Wavelet Transform in a Chemical Plant
This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...
متن کاملFuzzy Shrink Image denoising using smoothing spline estimation
The image data is normally corrupted by additive noise during acquisition. This reduces the accuracy and reliability of any automatic analysis. For this reason, denoising methods are often applied to restore the original image. In proposed method a wavelet shrinkage algorithm based on fuzzy logic and the DT-DWT scheme is used. In particular, intra-scale dependency within wavelet coefficients is...
متن کاملDenoising of Biological Signals using Wavelets
Methods based on thresholding of wavelet coefficients have been found to be popular in the estimation of biological signals from noisy environment. Hard and soft filters are most commonly used in these methods. In this paper a novel thresholding filter for wavelet shrinkage estimation of biological signals is proposed. The proposed novel filter is applied using Visu Shrink rule and top rule to ...
