The effective noise reduction schemes in ultrasonic inspection have shown significant role for detection of flaws in materials. This paper presents the comparative result of noise reducing schemes based on Hilbert-Huang transform and Wavelet transform. The basic principle of HHT scheme includes two parts which are empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm and a sum of intrinsic mode function...

The primary factors in determining beef quality grades are the amount and distribution of intramuscular fat percentage (IMFAT). Texture analysis was applied to ultrasound B-mode images from ribeye muscle of live beef cattle to predict its IMFAT. We used wavelet transform (WT) for multiresolutional texture analysis and second-order statistics using a gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) techni...

The presence of noise in a nonstationary signal (i.e., whose frequency content varies with time) complicates the extraction of meaningful information from the signal. The classical Fourier domain of such a signal can only separate the noise from the useful signal energy if they have different frequency content. For nonstationary signals the windowed Fourier transform has been introduced to loca...

An accurate time-frequency representation (TFR) can provide useful information in non stationary data analysis and processing. The traditional methods like short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and wavelet transform (WT) based TFR approaches are leads to a tradeoff between time and frequency resolution. A recently proposed synchrosqueezing transform (SST), which is an extension of the WT, has bee...

Data pre-processing is challenging as it involves extensive manual effort and time, includes the process of noise removal referred as signal denoising or simply denoising. Noises present in signals are difficult to recover using the traditional methods. Now Wavelet Transform is used for denoising techniques. The implementation results reveal that the proposed technique achieves a state-of-the-a...

We present a new modified wavelet transform, called the multiadaptive bionic wavelet transform (MABWT), that can be applied to ECG signals in order to remove noise from them under a wide range of variations for noise. By using the definition of bionic wavelet transform and adaptively determining both the center frequency of each scale together with the T-function, the problem of desired signal ...

In ultrasonic testing of welding flaws, the reliability and quality of tests are considerably affected by noise and spurious signals. Thus, signal de-noising and increasing of the signal-noise ratio (SNR) are a key to successful application of ultrasonic NDT and NDE. At present, there are many methods for signal de-noising, such as median filtering, non-linear filtering, adaptive filtering, cor...

In this research, surface electromyography (SEMG) signal analysis from the right rectus femoris muscle is performed during walk. Wavelet transform (WT) has been applied for removing noise from the surface SEMG. Gaussianity tests are conducted to understand changes in muscle contraction and to quantify the effectiveness of the noise removal process. Results show that the proposed method can effe...
