Abstract

This study explores the ability of wavelets and wavelet packets to extract information from non-stationary signals for the purpose of classification. The signals used were of two types: non-stationary signals from three marine mammals (dolphins, porpoises, and sperm whales), and quasi-stationary signals from an experimental undersea vehicle. This study also focuses on the impact of the compression ratio and the basis selection on the performance of a given classifier.
