Reduced Interference Vertex-Frequency Distributions

Vertex-frequency analysis of graph signals is a challenging topic for research and applications. Counterparts of the short-time Fourier transform, the wavelet transform, and the Rihaczek distribution have recently been introduced to the graph-signal analysis. In this letter, we have extended the energy distributions to a general reduced interference distributions class. It can improve the vertex-frequency representation of a graph signal while preserving the marginal properties. This class is related to the spectrogram of graph signals as well. Efficiency of the proposed representations is illustrated in examples.
