FOURIER TRANSFORM<br />
GABOR TRANSFORM<br />
WAVELET TRANSFORM<br />
Figure 13: Frequency <strong>and</strong> time-<strong>frequency</strong> <strong>methods</strong>. Fourier Transform is obtained by<br />
correlating the original signal with complex sinusoids <strong>of</strong> dierent frequencies (upper<br />
part). In Gabor Transform, the signal is correlated with modulated sinusoidal functions<br />
that slides upon the time axis, thus giving a time-<strong>frequency</strong> representation (middle<br />
part). Wavelets give an alternative time-scale representation but due to their varying<br />
window size, a better resolution for each scale is achieved (bottom part). Furthermore,<br />
the function to be correlated with the original signal can be chosen depending on the<br />
application (e.g. in the graph quadratic B-Splines wavelets are shown).<br />
