Abstract
Intelligent systems comprise a large variety of applications, including ones based on signal processing. This field benefits from considerable popularity, especially with recent advances in artificial intelligence, improving existing processing methods and providing robust and scalable solutions to existing and new problems. This chapter builds on well-known signal processing techniques, such as the short-time Fourier and wavelet transform, and introduces the concept of instantaneous frequency along with implementation details. Applications featuring the presented methods are discussed in an attempt to show how intelligent systems and signal processing can work together. Examples that highlight the cooperation between signal analysis and fuzzy c-means clustering, neural networks and support vector machines are being presented.
