The Hilbert spectrum (sometimes referred to as the Hilbert amplitude spectrum), named after David Hilbert, is a statistical tool that can help in distinguishing among a mixture of moving signals. The spectrum itself is decomposed into its component sources using independent component analysis. The separation of the combined effects of unidentified sources (blind signal separation) has applications in climatology, seismology, and biomedical imaging. ==Conceptual summary== The Hilbert spectrum is computed by way of a 2-step process consisting of: * Preprocessing a signal separate it into intrinsic mode functions using a mathematical decomposition such as singular value decomposition (SVD); * Applying the Hilbert transform to the results of the above step to obtain the instantaneous frequency spectrum of each of the components. The Hilbert transform defines the imaginary part of the function to make it an analytic function (sometimes referred to as a progressive function), ''i.e.'' a function whose signal strength is zero for all frequency components less than zero. With the Hilbert transform, the singular vectors give instantaneous frequencies that are functions of time, so that the result is an energy distribution over time and frequency. The result is an ability to capture time-frequency localization to make the concept of instantaneous frequency and time relevant (the concept of instantaneous frequency is otherwise abstract or difficult to define for all but monocomponent signals). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hilbert spectrum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
