wavelet time scattering

since r2018b

description

use the waveletscattering object to create a network for a wavelet time scattering decomposition using the gabor (analytic morlet) wavelet. the network uses wavelets and a lowpass scaling function to generate low-variance representations of real-valued time series data. wavelet time scattering yields representations insensitive to translations in the input signal without sacrificing class discriminability. you can use the representations as inputs to a classifier. you can specify the duration of translation invariance and the number of wavelet filters per octave. the scattering network also supports time × channel × batch (t×c×b) inputs.

creation

syntax

sf = waveletscattering

sf = waveletscattering(name,value)

description

example

sf = waveletscattering creates a wavelet time scattering network with two filter banks. the first filter bank has a quality (q) factor of eight wavelets per octave. the second filter bank has a q factor of one wavelet per octave. by default, waveletscattering assumes a signal input length of 1024 samples. the scale invariance length is 512 samples. by default, waveletscattering uses periodic boundary conditions.

example

sf = waveletscattering(name,value) creates a network for wavelet scattering, sf, with properties specified by one or more name,value arguments. properties can be specified in any order as name1,value1,...,namen,valuen. enclose each property name in quotes.

note

after you create a scattering network, you can change the value of the oversamplingfactor property. depending on the precision of the network and the input signal, the value of the precision property can also change. all other network property values remain fixed.

properties

`signallength` — signal length
`1024` (default) | positive integer ≥ 16

signal length in samples, specified as a positive integer ≥ 16. if the input to the scattering network is a row vector, signallength must match the number of columns in the input data. if the input to the scattering network is a column vector, matrix, or 3-d array, signallength must match the number of rows in the data.

data types: double

`samplingfrequency` — sampling frequency
`1` (default) | positive scalar

sampling frequency in hertz, specified as a positive scalar. if unspecified, frequencies are in cycles/sample and the nyquist frequency is ½.

data types: double

`invariancescale` — scattering transform invariance scale
one-half of `signallength` (default) | positive scalar

scattering transform invariance scale, specified as a positive scalar. invariancescale specifies the translation invariance of the scattering transform. if you do not specify samplingfrequency, invariancescale is measured in samples. if you specify samplingfrequency, invariancescale is measured in seconds.

invariancescale cannot exceed signallength in samples.

example: sf = waveletscattering('signallength',1000,'samplingfrequency',200,'invariancescale',5) has the largest possible invariance scale.

data types: double

`qualityfactors` — scattering filter bank q factors
`[8 1]` (default) | positive integer | vector of positive integers

scattering filter bank q factors, specified as a positive integer or a vector of positive integers. a filter bank q factor is the number of wavelet filters per octave. q factors must be less than or equal to 32 and greater than or equal to 1.

if qualityfactors is specified as a vector, the elements of qualityfactors must be strictly decreasing.

example: sf = waveletscattering('qualityfactors',[8 2 1]) creates a wavelet scattering network with three filter banks.

data types: double

`boundary` — signal extension method
`'periodic'` (default) | `'reflection'`

signal extension method to apply at the boundary:

'periodic' — extend signal periodically to length 2^ceil(log2(n)), where n is the signal length.
'reflection' — extend signal by reflection to length 2^ceil(log2(2 n)), where n is the signal length.

the signal is extended to match the length of the wavelet filters. the length of the filters are powers of two.

the signal extension method is for internal operations. results are downsampled back onto the scale of the original signal before being returned.

`precision` — numeric precision of wavelet scattering network
`'double'` (default) | `'single'`

numeric precision of wavelet scattering network:

'double' — double precision
'single' — single precision

if you construct a scattering network with double-precision filters and apply the network to single-precision data, the filters are cast internally to single-precision. subsequent filtering is done with single precision until a new network is created regardless of input data type. for more information, see the example wavelet time scattering network precision.

specifying precision as 'single' at construction is useful if you want to use the object with single-precision data and reduce the memory footprint of the scattering network.

`oversamplingfactor` — oversampling factor
`0` (default) | nonnegative integer | `inf`

oversampling factor, specified as a nonnegative integer or inf. the factor specifies how much the scattering coefficients are oversampled with respect to the critically downsampled values. the factor is on a log₂ scale. by default, oversamplingfactor is set to 0, which corresponds to critically downsampling the coefficients. you can use to determine the number of coefficients obtained for a scattering network. to obtain a fully undecimated scattering transform, set oversamplingfactor to inf.

setting oversamplingfactor to a value that would result in more coefficients than samples is equivalent to setting oversamplingfactor to inf. increasing the oversamplingfactor significantly increases the computational complexity and memory requirements of the scattering transform.

example: if sf = waveletscattering('oversamplingfactor',2), the scattering transform returns 2² times as many coefficients for each scattering path with respect to the critically sampled number.

`optimizepath` — optimize scattering transform logical
`false` or `0` (default) | `true` or `1`

optimize scattering transform logical which determines whether the scattering transform reduces the number of scattering paths to compute based on a bandwidth consideration, specified as a numeric or logical 1 (true) or 0 (false).

if you specify optimizepath as true, the scattering transform excludes scattering paths of order 2 and greater which do not satisfy the following criterion: the center frequency minus ½ the 3-db bandwidth of the wavelet filter in the (i 1)th filter bank must overlap 0 (dc) plus ½ the 3-db bandwidth of the wavelet filter in the ith filter bank. if this criterion is not satisfied, the higher-order path is excluded. setting optimizepath to true can significantly reduce the number of scattering paths and computational complexity of the scattering transform for most networks.

you can use the object function to determine which and how many scattering paths are computed.

more about

time windows

you set the invariance scale based on how much insensitivity to time-shifts in the data you want. equivalently, the invariance scale is the length of the gaussian smoothing function the scattering transform convolves with the scalogram coefficients. the longer the gaussian is in time (samples), the narrower the support (bandwidth) of its fourier transform. you can downsample the output of the smoothing operation. in the context of wavelet scattering, the term "time windows" refers to the number of samples obtained after downsampling the output of the smoothing operation.

when you use the default waveletscattering network, the scattering transform downsamples the output of the smoothing operation as much as possible without causing aliasing. if you want to downsample less than the maximum amount, set the oversampling factor of the network to a nonzero value. that, in turn, affects the number of time windows, because you will keep more samples from the output of the application of the gaussian smoothing filter to the scalograms. by changing the oversampling factor, you can obtain more time windows for the same given invariance scale.

if specified, 'precision' and 'boundary' values must be coder.constant.
qualityfactors cannot be variable sized.
waveletscattering is a handle class, so you must use an entry-point function.
to generate optimized code that uses simd intrinsics and runs on arm^® cortex^®-a 32-bit/64-bit processors, you must install the embedded coder^® support package for xilinx^® zynq^® platform. the support package for xilinx zynq platform ships the arm cross-compiler toolchains and enables deployment on arm cortex-a processors. the matlab^® support package for raspberry pi^® hardware enables a direct deployment of optimized code on arm devices. for an example, see .

r2023a: use object function `gather` to collect properties into local workspace

you can use the object function to collect all the properties of a waveletscattering object from the gpu device into your workspace. this support requires parallel computing toolbox™.

r2023a: generate optimized c code for arm cortex-a 32-bit/64-bit processors

you can generate optimized c code that uses simd intrinsics and runs on arm cortex-a 32-bit/64-bit processors. for more information, see code generation.

r2021a: `waveletscattering` property `decimate` has been removed

the waveletscattering property decimate has been removed. use the property oversamplingfactor instead.

functionality	what happens when you use this functionality?	use this instead	compatibility considerations
`decimate` property	errors	`oversamplingfactor`	replace all instances of `'decimate',true` with `'oversamplingfactor',0`. replace all instances of `'decimate',false` with `'oversamplingfactor',inf`.

r2021a: highest wavelet center frequency is computed using geometric mean

starting in r2021a, the highest wavelet center frequency is computed using the geometric mean. the method for determining how to space linearly those frequencies lower than the invariance scale has also changed. these changes improve the littlewood-paley sums of the resulting filter banks.

center frequencies are logarithmically spaced from the highest frequency to the frequency that corresponds to the invariance scale. starting in r2021a, depending on scattering network parameters such as the invariance scale, the number of filters you obtain may be different than in previous releases. the method for applying the filters to compute the scattering and scalogram coefficients has not changed.
