Acerca del autor

Boualem Boashash (IEEE Fellow '99') is a Scholar, Professor and Senior Academic with experience in 5 leading Universities in France and Australia and 2 universities in the Middle-East. He has published over 500 technical publications, including over 100 journal papers, 3 books and 3 text-books covering Engineering, Applied Mathematics and Medicine. He was an early pioneer of the field of Time–Frequency Signal Processing and he is currently working on the further development of time-frequency theory and medical applications covering mental health and neurosciences with focus on newborn EEG analysis as well as ECG, HRV and fetal movements for improving health outcomes. Among many initiatives, he founded ISSPA, a leading conference since 1985 and its sister workshop WOSSPA. After founding a leading research group at The University of Queensland, he became the Foundation Professor and Director of the Signal Processing Research Centre at the Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia (1991-2005). He then became the Dean of Engineering at the University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates (2006-2009) then Associate Dean, Academic at Qatar University and finally a Research Professor. In addition to the teaching, research and management experience, he also has 3 years industrial experience with Elf-Aquitaine in France at the beginning of his career. He is currently Professor at Qatar University, Department of Electrical Engineering, and the leader of a Biomedical Signal Processing group at the School of Medicine, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia. He also developed the first software package for time-frequency signal analysis and processing (TFSAP) regularly updated with his co-workers and used by hundreds of researchers around the world. His work has been cited over 10,000 times.

Professor Boashash was a member of ICASSP board, associate editor for the IEEE transactions on signal processing and he is currently a member of the Board of the Elsevier journal Digital Signal Processing.

De la contraportada

Time-Frequency Signal Analysis and Processing (TFSAP) is a collection of theory and algorithms used for the analysis and processing of non-stationary signals, as found in a wide range of applications including telecommunications, radar, and biomedical engineering. This book gives the university researcher and R&D engineer insight into how to use TFSAP methods to develop the engineering application systems they are looking to implement.

• New sections on Efficient Fast Algorithms and a section "Getting Started" which allows users to start using the algorithms on simulated and real examples, compare the results presented in the book and then insert the algorithms in their own application and adapt as needed

• Two new chapters, twenty three new sections, including the latest references

• New topics in this edition include: Efficient algorithms (with source code), the EMD, the S transform, time-frequency modelling, more mathematical foundations, relationship between QTFDs and Wavelet Transforms; new advanced applications such as cognitive radio; watermarking; noise reduction in the time-frequency domain; a time-frequency approach for spike detection; algorithms for Time-Frequency Image Processing; a full new chapter dedicated to Time-Frequency applications in neuroscience; a practical new chapter to help new users get started.

• A comprehensive tutorial introduction to Time-Frequency Signal Analysis and Processing TFSAP, accessible to anyone who has taken a first course in signals and systems

• Key theory and algorithms are concisely presented by some of the leading authorities on the respective topics

• Applications written by leading researchers showing how to use TFSAP methods
