Abstract

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) has lately received much attention due to the many interesting features that exhibits. However it lacks a strong theoretical basis which would allow a performance analysis and hence the enhancement and optimization of the method in a systematic way. In this paper, an investigation of EMD is attempted in an alternative way: The interpolation points and the piecewise interpolating polynomials for the formation of the upper and lower envelopes of the signal are optimized based on a genetic algorithm framework revealing important characteristics of the method which where previously hidden. As a result, novel directions for both the performance enhancement and the theoretical investigation of the method are unveiling.
