“…In engineering, where the distributions are called time-frequency distributions, the main aim has been to understand time-varying spectra [14,15,16,17,18,19]. Among the many areas to which they have been applied are heart sounds, heart rate, the electroencephalogram (EEG), the electromyogram (EMG) [20,21,22,23,24], machine fault monitoring [11,17,18,19,25,26], radar and sonar signals, acoustic scattering [14,16,27], speech processing [28,29], analysis of marine mammal sounds [30,31], musical instruments [32], linear and nonlinear dynamical systems [33,34,35], among many others. Our aim is the following.…”
