Ridge Estimation by Corona Method

Description

Estimate a (single) ridge from a time-frequency representation, using the corona method.

Usage

corona(tfrep, guess, tfspec=numeric(dim(tfrep)[2]), subrate=1,
temprate=3, mu=1, lambda=2 * mu, iteration=1000000, seed=-7,
stagnant=20000, costsub=1, plot=TRUE)

Arguments

tfrep Time-Frequency representation (real valued).
guess Initial guess for the algorithm.
tfspec Estimate for the contribution of the noise to modulus.
subrate Subsampling rate for ridge estimation.
temprate Initial value of temperature parameter.
mu Coefficient of the ridge's second derivative in cost function.
lambda Coefficient of the ridge's derivative in cost function.
iteration Maximal number of moves.
seed Initialization of random number generator.
stagnant Maximum number of stationary iterations before stopping.
costsub Subsampling of cost function in output.
plot When set(default), some results will be shown on the display.

Details

To accelerate convergence, it is useful to preprocess modulus before running annealing method. Such a preprocessing (smoothing and subsampling of modulus) is implemented in corona. The parameter subrate specifies the subsampling rate.

Value

Returns the estimated ridge and the cost function.
ridge 1D array (of same length as the signal) containing the ridge.
cost 1D array containing the cost function.

Warning

The returned cost may be a large array, which is time consuming. The argument costsub allows subsampling the cost function.
