Abstract:

A technique based on bispectra and cross-bispectra is described for estimating waveform and latency from a set of noisy signals with variable latency. Waveform estimation is performed by averaging bispectra of observed noisy signals. Latency estimation is performed by using the product function of a function derived from the cross-bispectrum and the cross-correlation. The method is numerically assessed by simulations, using a signal with uniformly distributed latency and computer-generated noise sequences.
