Image & Signal Preparation
Image & Signal Preparation groups the core ideas a learner needs at the 5 · data preprocessing & feature engineering stage. Work through the lessons in order when new to the area, or use them independently as a reference when implementing an analysis.
Learn the mechanism one decision at a time
Work through the lessons in order if the topic is new. If you already know the basics, open the specific leaf lesson that matches the operation, diagnostic or failure mode you need.

Resize and resampleResize and resample is a practical concept within Image & Signal Preparation. It helps turn the broader workflow stage “5 · Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering” into an explicit analytical decision that can be explained, implemented and checked. The concept should be understood in terms of purpose, mechanism, assumptions, evidence and downstream consequences.
02NormalisationNormalisation is a practical concept within Image & Signal Preparation. It helps turn the broader workflow stage “5 · Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering” into an explicit analytical decision that can be explained, implemented and checked. The concept should be understood in terms of purpose, mechanism, assumptions, evidence and downstream consequences.
03Data augmentationData augmentation is a practical concept within Image & Signal Preparation. It helps turn the broader workflow stage “5 · Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering” into an explicit analytical decision that can be explained, implemented and checked. The concept should be understood in terms of purpose, mechanism, assumptions, evidence and downstream consequences.
04Windowing and segmentationWindowing and segmentation is a practical concept within Image & Signal Preparation. It helps turn the broader workflow stage “5 · Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering” into an explicit analytical decision that can be explained, implemented and checked. The concept should be understood in terms of purpose, mechanism, assumptions, evidence and downstream consequences.
05Frequency-domain featuresFrequency-domain features changes how raw variables are represented for analysis or modelling. The transformation should preserve the information needed by the task while making assumptions explicit and reproducible.
06Train-only augmentation rulesTrain-only augmentation rules is a practical concept within Image & Signal Preparation. It helps turn the broader workflow stage “5 · Data Preprocessing & Feature Engineering” into an explicit analytical decision that can be explained, implemented and checked. The concept should be understood in terms of purpose, mechanism, assumptions, evidence and downstream consequences.
