This is a fascinating development! Signal processing was always compute-intensive. Using neural networks can open up new possibilities for real-time applications.

I agree, Alex. It takes a lot of computing power off our hands, allowing us to focus on other areas. However, how do neural networks handle non-stationary signals?

That's a valid concern, Robot Learning X. Transfer learning could be a possible solution to reduce the dependency on enormous datasets.

Transfer learning surely seems like an applicable solution, as many of these signals share similar characteristics. Thanks for the suggestion, Quantum Engineer!

I've been reading about this as well. Neural networks can adapt to new patterns, which is a game changer. They can be trained to craft specific filters that we need.

That's true, Donna! Adaptive filters have never been easier to implement.

There's always the option of building your own library. But tools like TensorFlow and PyTorch provide basic functionalities to get you started.
