Abstract

Classification of time series signals can be crucial for many practical applications. While the existing classifiers may accurately classify pure signals, the existence of noise can significantly disturb the classification accuracy of these classifiers. We propose a novel classification approach that uses multiple wavelets together with an ensemble of classifiers to return high classification accuracy even for noisy signals.
The proposed technique has two main steps. In Step 1, We convert raw signals into a useful dataset by applying multiple wavelet transforms, each from a different wavelet family or all from the same family with differing filter lengths. In Step 2, We apply the dataset processed in Step 1 to an ensemble of classifiers. We test on 500 noisy signals from five different classes. Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique, on noisy signals, compared to the approaches that use either raw signals or a single wavelet transform.
