Time-frequency audio source separation is usually achieved by estimating the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) magnitude of each source, and then applying a phase recovery algorithm to retrieve time-domain signals. In particular, the multiple input spectrogram inversion (MISI) algorithm has shown…
We introduce a new non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) method for ordinal data, called OrdNMF. Ordinal data are categorical data which exhibit a natural ordering between the categories. In particular, they can be found in recommender systems, either with explicit data (such as ratings) or implic…
Archetypal scenarios for change detection generally consider two images acquired through sensors of the same modality. The resolution dissimilarity is often bypassed though a simple preprocessing, applied independently on each image to bring them to the same resolution. However, in some important si…
Count data are often used in recommender systems: they are widespread (song play counts, product purchases, clicks on web pages) and can reveal user preference without any explicit rating from the user. Such data are known to be sparse, over-dispersed and bursty, which makes their direct use in reco…
An important task when processing dynamic PET images is to identify the time-activity curves (TACs) of the pure tissues, along with their corresponding spatial proportions. This step, often referred to as unmixing or factor analysis, is based on a loss function which measures the discrepancy between…
In this paper, we consider ridge detection for multicomponent signal analysis. We introduce a new ridge detector based on a projection of the reassignment vector in a specific direction which is related to the geometry of the spectrogram magnitude. The ridge definition we introduce enables that of t…
The paper deals with the problem of representing non-stationary signals jointly in time and frequency. We use the framework of reassignment methods, that achieve sharp and compact representations. More precisely, we introduce an enhanced version of the synchrosqueezed wavelet transform, which is sho…
