Study of the EmpiricalModeDecomposition and Application to Pictures
Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) • Pioneered by N.E. Huang in 1998 • Nonlinear and data-driven technique of non-stationary signals decomposition • Firstly defined for mono-dimensional signals • Main idea: to represent a signal as a sum of components, each of them being a zero-mean AM-FM function
Purpose of my internship • Understand the principle of EMD in mono-dimensional case and compute the algorithm • Develop an algorithm for bi-dimensional signals • Try to identify matters in extension of EMD to tri-dimensional signals
Principle Let x(t) be a mono-dimensional signal:
5- Iterate on the residual m(t) until the number of extrema in the signal is less than 2.
Intrinsic Mode Functions The functions we want to obtain by this decomposition are called Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF) and they satisfy two conditions : • In the whole data set, the number of extrema and the number of zero crossings must either equal or differ at most by one. • At any point, the mean value of the envelope defined by the local maxima and the envelope defined by the local minima is zero.
Sifting Process In practice, the details obtained are not necessarily IMFs. We have to refine by a Sifting Process: • Iterate steps 1 to 4 upon the detail d(t), until this can be considered as an IMF. • The corresponding residue is then computed and step 5 applies.
Principle • Identify local extrema of f(x,y) • Interpolate between minima (resp. maxima) ending up with some envelope (resp. • Compute the mean • Extract the detail d(x,y) = f(x,y) – m(x,y) • Iterate on the residual m(x,y)
