Jérôme Gilles

Short summary

A new 'empirical wavelet transform' (EWT) is introduced, which constructs adaptive wavelets by extracting signal modes via a designed wavelet filter bank.

Key points

  • Introduces the Empirical Wavelet Transform (EWT) as a new signal decomposition method.
  • EWT builds adaptive wavelets using a designed wavelet filter bank to extract signal modes.
  • The method offers a theoretical foundation lacking in previous adaptive techniques like EMD.
  • Experimental results show EWT's usefulness and superiority over EMD.

Abstract

Some recent methods, like the empirical mode decomposition (EMD), propose to decompose a signal accordingly to its contained information. Even though its adaptability seems useful for many applications, the main issue with this approach is its lack of theory. This paper presents a new approach to build adaptive wavelets. The main idea is to extract the different modes of a signal by designing an appropriate wavelet filter bank. This construction leads us to a new wavelet transform, called the empirical wavelet transform. Many experiments are presented showing the usefulness of this method compared to the classic EMD.
