plotting - How to increase Spectrogram resolution?


I have a time-domain signal that I want do a time-frequency analysis on it. When I tried the Spectrogram, I always get very low resolution.



For example:


I have a signal like this:


data = Table[
Piecewise[{{Sin[2 \[Pi] 10 t], 0 <= t < 1/4}, {Sin[2 \[Pi] 25 t],
1/4 <= t < 1/2}, {Sin[2 \[Pi] 50 t],
1/2 <= t < 3/4}, {Sin[2 \[Pi] 100 t], 3/4 <= t <= 1}}], {t, 0,
1, 1/1023}];
ListLinePlot[data, AspectRatio -> 0.2]

enter image description here



when I do a wavelet transform, I get a result that I can identify each frequency and their arrival time.


cwd = ContinuousWaveletTransform[data, GaborWavelet[6], {Automatic, 12}];
freq = (1023/(#*GaborWavelet[6]["FourierFactor"])) & /@ (Thread[{Range[8], 1}] /. cwd["Scales"]);
ticks = Transpose[{Range[Length[freq]], freq}];
WaveletScalogram[cwd, Frame -> True, FrameTicks -> {{ticks, Automatic}, Automatic},FrameLabel -> {"Time", "Frequency(Hz)"}, ColorFunction -> "RustTones"]

enter image description here


The wavelet transform is very good for me except I prefer a linear scale instead of a log scale. So I tried the Spectrogram.


Spectrogram[data, SampleRate -> 1023, ColorFunction -> "RustTones", FrameLabel -> {"Time", "Frequency(Hz)"}]


enter image description here


From the spectrogram I can barely see that there are four frequencies components, but the resolution is very low compared to the wavelet transform, and there seems be a lot of "noise" in it. So how can I use Spectrogram to plot a similar result as that of wavelet transform, a result that I can easily see the difference frequencies and their occurrence in time?


Edit:


Second example

Answer



The Spectrogram function also allows you to alter the window length, overlap and apply a windowing function to your data segment before FFT. You'll get better results if you utilize those (which requires some knowledge of DSP and your specific problem) instead of using the default parameters and the rectangle window.


For instance, the following shows the frequencies distinctly:


Spectrogram[data, 128, 64, BlackmanWindow, SampleRate -> 1023, 
FrameLabel -> {"Frequency(Hz)", "Time"}]

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer.

plotting - Mathematica: 3D plot based on combined 2D graphs

I have several sigmoidal fits to 3 different datasets, with mean fit predictions plus the 95% confidence limits (not symmetrical around the mean) and the actual data. I would now like to show these different 2D plots projected in 3D as in but then using proper perspective. In the link here they give some solutions to combine the plots using isometric perspective, but I would like to use proper 3 point perspective. Any thoughts? Also any way to show the mean points per time point for each series plus or minus the standard error on the mean would be cool too, either using points+vertical bars, or using spheres plus tubes. Below are some test data and the fit function I am using. Note that I am working on a logit(proportion) scale and that the final vertical scale is Log10(percentage). (* some test data *) data = Table[Null, {i, 4}]; data[[1]] = {{1, -5.8}, {2, -5.4}, {3, -0.8}, {4, -0.2}, {5, 4.6}, {1, -6.4}, {2, -5.6}, {3, -0.7}, {4, 0.04}, {5, 1.0}, {1, -6.8}, {2, -4.7}, {3, -1.
