Abstract Wavelet theory had its origin in quantum field theory, signal analysis, & function space theory. In these areas wavelet-like algorithms replace the classical Fourier-type expansion of a function. This...unique new book is an excellent introduction to the basic properties of wavelets, from background math to powerful applications. The authors provide elementary methods for constructing wavelets, & illustrate several new classes of wavelets. The text begins with a description of local sine & cosine bases that have been shown to be very effective in applications. Very little mathematical background is needed to follow this material. A complete treatment of band-limited wavelets follows. These are characterized by some elementary equations, allowing the authors to introduce many new wavelets. Next, the idea of multiresolution analysis (MRA) is developed, & the authors include simplified presentations of previous studies, particularly for compactly supported wavelets. Some of the topics treated include: show more
