[SciPy-Dev] Adding Wigner-Ville distribution and related methods to scipy.signal

[Leander Claes]

Dear SciPy developers,

I recently submitted a pull request to add the Wigner-Ville distribution
(wvd) to scipy.signal (https://github.com/scipy/scipy/pull/14141). To
oversimplify the description of the wvd: It is a method for time-frequency
analysis similar to the short-time Fourier-transform or the wavelet
transform with some really interesting properties that makes it useful in
many applications (e.g. detecting gravitational waves). We often use it in
our group and we teach it to students in our lecture on signal processing
with python.
It was kindly suggested that I send a mail to this list first to check if
there was need for such a function. So here I am: Do you think that
Wigner-Ville distribution (and maybe later some the derived methods) should
be added scipy?
Thank you for the consideration.

Best regards,

Leander (lndr)
