On selecting relevant intrinsic mode functions in empirical mode decomposition: An energy-based approach
Résumé
Although the empirical mode decomposition is a powerful tool for analyzing complicated datasets, many irrelevant intrinsic mode functions may appear in the decomposition. In this paper, we develop an energy-based method to detect relevant intrinsic mode functions. The new method can be seen as a generalization of techniques that are based on correlation. An experimental study is carried out in different datasets for assessing the performance of the proposed technique.
