In the last two decades, both Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) and Intrinsic TimeScale Decomposition (ITD) algorithms deserved a variety of applications in various fields of science and engineering due to their obvious advantages compared to conventional (e.g. correlation-or spectral-based analysis) approaches like the ability of their direct application to non-stationary signal analysis. However, high computational complexity remains a common drawback of these otherwise universal and powerful algorithms. Here we compare similarly designed signal analysis algorithms utilizing either EMD or ITD as their core functions. Based on extensive computer simulations, we show explicitly that the replacement of EMD by ITD in several otherwise similar signal analysis scenarios leads to the increased noise robustness with simultaneous considerable reduction of the processing time. We also demonstrate that the proposed algorithms modifications could be successfully utilized in a series of emerging applications for processing of non-stationary signals.

This paper considers two approaches to hydroacoustic signal classification, taking the sounds made by whales as an example: a method based on harmonic wavelets and a technique involving deep learning neural networks. The study deals with the classification of hydroacoustic signals using coefficients of the harmonic wavelet transform (fast computation), short-time Fourier transform (spectrogram) and Fourier transform using a kNN-algorithm. Classification quality metrics (precision, recall and accuracy) are given for different signal-to-noise ratios. ROC curves were also obtained. The use of the deep neural network for classification of whales’ sounds is considered. The effectiveness of using harmonic wavelets for the classification of complex non-stationary signals is proved. A technique to reduce the feature space dimension using a ‘modulo N reduction’ method is proposed. A classification of 26 individual whales from the Whale FM Project dataset is presented. It is shown that the deep-learning-based approach provides the best result for the Whale FM Project dataset both for whale types and individuals.
This article proposes a mathematical model of an axial flux induction motor (AFIM) with one stator and one rotor. The model is based on the expression for the electromagnetic torque, which presents a function of two independent variables: the axial length of the stator core and the flux density in the air gap. This allows calculating the main dimensions of the motor with the highest possible torque density. Thus, developed model is suitable for designing the motor of specified volume with maximum torque, and solving the inverse problem of minimizing the machine volume with the specified torque. The detailed output of the model and the results of the calculations for the low-power engine powered by voltage of 7.35 V (RMS) are given. The results are validated using FEM in ANSYS software: with the outer motor diameter of 0.11 m, the flux density in it reaches 1.2 T.
Processing chaotic signals is a complicated task due to their nonlinear and non-periodical properties. Conventional linear filters do not allow to properly denoise signals generated by chaotic systems, distorting the carrier while removing the noise, which is critical for such applications as coherent chaotic communications. In this paper, we propose a novel denoising algorithm, called Ensemble Intrinsic Time-Scale Decomposition (EITD) using specific chaotic noise generators. We may use specific chaotic noise generators in the known Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD), as we also show. Considering the examples of Rössler and Lorenz systems as chaotic waveforms generators, we compare the developed algorithm modifications with other filtration algorithms using ITD and EMD. We use the root-mean-square error (RMSE) as a metric to estimate the denoising quality. Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) range −10...20 dB is examined, and white, pink and chaotic noise generators are utilized to disturb signals under study. As a result, we explicitly show that the developed approach provides the error 2-10 times less in the case of white and pink noise, and is capable of denoising chaotic signals in case of all the considered types of noises, in contrast to Conventional and Iterative ITD and EMD algorithms.INDEX TERMS chaotic signals, digital signal processing, empirical mode decomposition, intrinsic timescale decomposition, denoising, and non-linear filtering.
The residue number system (RNS) is widely used for data processing. However, division in the RNS is a rather complicated arithmetic operation, since it requires expensive and complex operators at each iteration, which requires a lot of hardware and time. In this paper, we propose a new modular division algorithm based on the Chinese remainder theorem (CRT) with fractional numbers, which allows using only one shift operation by one digit and subtraction in each iteration of the RNS division. The proposed approach makes it possible to replace such expensive operations as reverse conversion based on CRT, mixed radix conversion, and base extension by subtraction. Besides, we optimized the operation of determining the most significant bit of divider with a single shift operation of the modular divider. The proposed enhancements make the algorithm simpler and faster in comparison with currently known algorithms. The experimental simulation using Kintex-7 showed that the proposed method is up to 7.6 times faster than the CRT-based approach and is up to 10.1 times faster than the mixed radix conversion approach.
