Application of low-complexity generalized coherence factor to in vivo data

ConclusionWhile GCFbin can significantly reduce the computational complexity, there are differences in the values of GCFbin and GCF due to binarizing of the received signals. However, this difference resulted in GCFbin being superior to GCF in terms of artifact reduction. This is owing to the elimination of amplitude information in GCFbin, which makes it a new efficient coherence factor with different characteristics from GCF.
