Popis: We address the correspondence problem which arises when applying empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to multi-trial and multi-subject data. EMD decomposes a signal into a set of narrow-band components named intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). The number of IMFs and their signal properties can be different between trials, channels and subjects. In order to assign IMFs with similar characteristics to each other, we compare two assignment methods, unbalanced assignment and k-cardinality assignment and two clustering algorithms, namely hierarchical clustering and density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise based on heart rate variability data of children with temporal lobe epilepsy.
