s is a time-frequency transform based on the concept of short-time fourier transform and wavelet transform. the main property of this transform that separate it from the discrete short-time fourier transform is variable frequency resolution. but in this transform the change of resolution of high frequencies to low frequencies is very high. so another transform as a modified s transform is intro...

Sleep spindles are the most interesting hallmark of stage 2 sleep EEG. Their accurate identification in a polysomnographic signal is essential for sleep professionals to help them mark Stage 2 sleep. Visual spindle scoring however is a tedious workload. In this paper two different approaches are used for the automatic detection of sleep spindles: Short Time Fourier Transform and Automatic Visua...

In the next two lectures, we will continue to expand our toolbox for computing in frequency domain, by adding two important computational tools. The first, the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is a family of algorithms for efficiently computing the Discrete Fourier Transform. These algorithms are of great practical importance, as theymake it possible to perform frequency domain analysis of very lar...

This paper is part 4 in a series of papers about the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT). The focus of this paper is on spectral leakage. Spectral leakage applies to all forms of DFT, including the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and the IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform). We demonstrate an approach to mitigating spectral leakage based on windowing...

--The fractional fourier transform(FRFT) which is a generalisation of classical fourier transform, was introduced number of years ago in the mathematics literature but appears to have remained largely unknown to a signal processing community to which it may, however, be a potentially useful. The fractional fourier transform depends on a parameter ‘α’ and can be interpreted as a rotation by an a...
