Should I consider rgb values of a pixel as one value?
I was reading this paper for a project work.
We train on 1.6 million 32*32 color images that have been preprocessed
by subtracting from each pixel its mean value over all images and then
...

How to perform a Rubberband-Correction on spectroscopic data?
I basicaly understood how the Rubberband/Baseline-correction works.
The given spectrum is divided into (N) ranges.
The lowest points in every range are determined.
The initial baseline is built out ...

How should I pre-process a real valued signal in order to use Kay's estimator?
I have 100,000 samples of a signal $x[n]$ that was sampled at 20kHz. The data is vibration data from a rotating machine, and contains a significant spectral component related to the speed of the ...
