Averaging Filter and noise reduction
•Example: try executing:
•k=1; figure(1); hist(sum((1/k)*rand(k,1000)))
•for different values of k.
•The average of noise is smaller than one example.
–This is intuitive
–Can be proven in many cases (some technical conditions: noise must be independent, many samples….)
–Actually true for many real examples: Gaussian noise, flipping a coin many times
