Abstract
Marginal spectrum (MS) feature information of humpback whale vocalization (HWV) signals is an interesting and significant research topic. Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is a powerful time–frequency analysis tool for marine mammal vocalizations. In this paper, new MS feature innovation information of HWV signals was extracted using the EMD analysis method. Thirty-six HWV samples with a time duration of 17.2 ms were classified into Classes I, II, and III, which consisted of 15, 5, and 16 samples, respectively. The following ratios were evaluated: the average energy ratios of the 1 first intrinsic mode function (IMF1) and residual function (RF) to the referred total energy for the Class I samples; the average energy ratios of the IMF1, 2nd IMF (IMF2), and RF to the referred total energy for the Class II samples; the average energy ratios of the IMF1, 6th IMF (IMF6), and RF to the referred total energy for the Class III samples. These average energy ratios were all more than 10%. The average energy ratios of IMF1 to the referred total energy were 9.825%, 13.790%, 4.938%, 3.977%, and 3.32% in the 2980–3725, 3725–4470, 4470–5215, 10,430–11,175, and 11,175–11,920 Hz bands, respectively, in the Class I samples; 14.675% and 4.910% in the 745–1490 and 1490–2235 Hz bands, respectively, in the Class II samples; 12.0640%, 6.8850%, and 4.1040% in the 2980–3725, 3725–4470, and 11,175–11,920 Hz bands, respectively, in the Class III samples. The results of this study provide a better understanding, high resolution, and new innovative views on the information obtained from the MS features of the HWV signals.
