The time-frequency (TF) spectral representation of Auditory Brainstem Response (ABR) signal data provides information about their spectral contents. We apply the Spectrogram, Thomson Multitaper and Peak Matched Multiple Window (PM MW) spectral estimation methods to four different number of clicks per average (i.e., 1313, 300, 100 and 50 number of clicks per average) of a simulated signal data. For

From 1950 to 1970 around 131 000 agricultural units disappeared, far too many to be explained by natural causes. Through an analysis of several government public investigations we come to
