Abstract
Comparative results are presented for the classification of underwater transient sounds. Comparisons are made using the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and the Morlet continuous wavelet transform (CWT). Performance as a function of signal-to- noise ratio are presented for synthetic chirp transients. Classification results for three classes of biological signals are also presented. Adaptive energy windows and moments of the transformed signals were used as features for classification. Certain classes of transient signals were found for which one of the transforms was superior. In general, wavelets were better for broadband signals, while the STFT was optimal on narrowband signals.
