RRCNN^+: An Enhanced Residual Recursive Convolutional Neural Network for Non-stationary Signal Decomposition
share
Time-frequency analysis is an important and challenging task in many applications. Fourier and wavelet analysis are two classic methods that have achieved remarkable success in many fields. They also exhibit limitations when applied to nonlinear and non-stationary signals. To address this challenge, a series of nonlinear and adaptive methods, pioneered by the empirical mode decomposition method have been proposed. Their aim is to decompose a non-stationary signal into quasi-stationary components which reveal better features in the time-frequency analysis. Recently, inspired by deep learning, we proposed a novel method called residual recursive convolutional neural network (RRCNN). Not only RRCNN can achieve more stable decomposition than existing methods while batch processing large-scale signals with low computational cost, but also deep learning provides a unique perspective for non-stationary signal decomposition. In this study, we aim to further improve RRCNN with the help of several nimble techniques from deep learning and optimization to ameliorate the method and overcome some of the limitations of this technique.
