Noise is removed from a data set by performing an integral transform operation that converts instances of noise into identifiable artifacts in the transformed data set. A model of the artifacts is constructed by creating a full-domain or partial-domain noise model and performing the same integral transform operation on the noise model. The resulting transformation of the noise model is adaptively subtracted from the transformed data set to remove the noise. The adaptive subtraction may employ a least-square error filter.

The methods may include computing a signal presence probability for each time-space window using the frequency-domain spectrum and prior probabilities of signal presence and absence for each time-space window. The methods may include iteratively updating a collective spectral noise power by recursively estimating the spectral noise power of a current time-space window based on the frequency spectrum for the current time-space window, the signal presence probability computed for the current time-space window, and a previously estimated spectral noise power of a previous time-space window.

Systems and methods for filtering interface waves from single component seismic data are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of filtering seismic data includes comparing amplitude coefficients of a matrix storing the seismic data in a time-frequency domain against an amplitude threshold, and comparing frequencies of the matrix against a maximum expected frequency of noise. The method further includes, for each amplitude coefficient having less than the amplitude threshold and an associated frequency less than the maximum expected frequency of noise, scaling the amplitude coefficient to reduce its value. The method also includes performing an inverse time-frequency transformation on the matrix to generate a noise model in a time domain, and subtracting the noise model from the seismic data in the time domain to generate filtered seismic data.

The instant invention relates to a method for noise reduction from a magnetic resonance sounding (MRS) oscillating signal, and more particularly, to a data processing method for reducing random noise contained in MRS oscillating signal based on joint algorithm principles of EMD and TFPF. A MRS oscillating signal is decomposed into different eigen-mode components by using decomposition characteristic of EMD algorithm; then a signal-dominated eigen-mode component is encoded as an instantaneous frequency of an analytical signal of unit amplitude using TFPF algorithm; and random noise is suppressed with the characteristics that the time-frequency distribution of the analytical signal is concentrated along with the instantaneous frequency. The method requires fewer filtering constraints and is simple to operate without need of designing a filtering interval in the time-frequency domain, and has good adaptability to the MRS oscillating signal with a low signal-noise-ratio.
