Title: Time Transformation Methods for Analyzing Time Series with Time-Varying Frequencies

Abstract:

A time series with time-varying frequencies can often be transformed into a stationary time series by transforming the time axis. After this time transformation, traditional methods for analyzing stationary time series can then be used. This paper discusses these time-transformation methods, which can be usefully applied to many seismological and biomedical time series where potential applications include classification and smoothing. Examples are discussed in detail.
