Abstract :
[en] The Wavelet-Induced Mode Extraction procedure (WIME) was developed drawing inspiration from Empirical Mode Decomposition. The concept involves decomposing the signal into modes, each presenting a characteristic frequency, using continuous wavelet transform. This method has yielded intriguing results in climatology. We improved the algorithm to take into account new parameters (noise, concavity, permissive zone evolution, border effects) and applied it to several climate signals. This version applied to ONI yields to impressive results: we detect 6 main periods and reconstruct the signal with a 94% correlation. This correlation grows as the niño/niña event gets stronger.
