===Statistical ===
'''Statistical signal processing''' is an approach which treats signals as [[stochastic process]]es, utilizing their [[statistical]] properties to perform signal processing tasks.<ref name ="Scharf">{{cite book |first=Louis L. |last=Scharf |title=Statistical signal processing: detection, estimation, and time series analysis |publisher=[[Addison–Wesley]] |location=[[Boston]] |year=1991 |isbn=0-201-19038-9 |oclc=61160161}}</ref> Statistical techniques are widely used in signal processing applications. For example, one can model the [[probability distribution]] of noise incurred when photographing an image, and construct techniques based on this model to [[noise reduction|reduce the noise]] in the resulting image.
