SRMD: Sparse Random Mode Decomposition

SRMD Flowchart

Introduction

A Python implimentation of Sparse Random Mode Decomposition

The goal of this algorithm is to provide a sparse time-frequency representation of a signal to decompose the signal into intrinsic mode-like functions.

Installation

Easiest method:

pip install git+https://github.com/GiangTTran/SparseRandomModeDecomposition.git#egg=srmdpy

The code can also be accessed by cloning this repository

git clone <https://github.com/GiangTTran/SparseRandomModeDecomposition>

or downloading the source by clicking Code -> Download ZIP, and then installed via

python setup.py install

The Algorithm

The algorithm can be broken into three main steps:

  1. Randomly generate many time-frequency features
  2. Find a sparse representation of the input with respect to the random features
  3. Cluster near-by features into modes

The features used are (Gaussian) windowed sinusoids with random phases, although any wavelet-like feature could be used. The sparse representation is found by solving the associated Basic Pursuit Denoising Problem (BPDP) using the SPGL1 algorithm. And the clustering is performed by scikit-learn's implimentation of the DBSCAN algorithm.

Given a time series y=[y1, ..., ym] sampled at time points t=[t1, ..., tm], SRMD recovers the modes s1, ..., sK and possibly denoise the input signal where

y(t) = s1(t) + s2(t) + ... + sK(t) + noise.

This method is most effective when the modes sk(t) occupy connected curves or regions that are mutualy disjoint in time-frequency space such as non-intersecting intrinsic mode functions.

Specificly, SRMD(y, ...) first solves the problem of representing a time-series y as a sum of random features

y(t) ~ sum_j(c_j * exp(-0.5 * ((t-tau_j)/w)^2) * sin(2*pi*frq_j*t + phs_j)),

where the learned weights vector c is sparse, by solving BPDN

argmin ||c||_1 s.t. ||Ac - y||_2 < r*||y||_2.

Here, (A)_ij = exp(-0.5 * ((t_i-tau_j)/w)^2) * sin(2*pi*frq_j*t_i + phs_j).

The features are clustered with DBSCAN which groups features with near-by (tau_j, frq_j*frq_scale) in terms of their l2 distance to each other.
