Preface


The aim of the book is to present this unified view of wavelets and subband coding. It will be done from a signal processing perspective, but with sufficient background material such that people without signal processing knowledge will find it useful as well.


1 Wavelets, Filter Banks and Multiresolution Signal Processing

The modulation by complex exponentials in the Fourier transform is replaced by a scaling operation, and the notion of scale replaces that of frequency.

In computer vision, multiresolution techniques have been used for various prob- lems, ranging from motion estimation to object recognition

2 Fundamentals of Signal Decompositions


2.1 Notations



Euler's formula states that for any real number x

    exp(j * x) = cos(x) + j * sin(x)
where e is the base of the natural logarithm, j is the imaginary unit,
When x=pi, Euler's formula evaluates to

    exp( j * pi ) + 1 = 0
which is known as Euler's identity.
This formula can be interpreted as saying that the function exp( j*φ ) is a unit complex number, i.e., it traces out the unit circle in the complex plane as φ ranges through the real numbers.


Often we deal with functions of a continuous variable, and a related sequence indexed by an integer (typically, the latter is a sampled version of the former).
We use parentheses around a continuous variable and brackets around a discrete one

    x[n] = f(nT)


2.2 HilbertSpaces


2.4 Fourier Theory and Sampling


2.4.2 FourierTransform


The Fourier transform satisfies a number of properties,



2.4.3 Fourier Series



2.4.4 Dirac Function, Impulse Trains and Poisson Sum Formula


The Dirac function, which is a generalized function or distribution, is defined as a limit of rectangular functions. For example, if




The Fourier transform of δ(t − t0) is


Next, we introduce the train of Dirac functions spaced T > 0 apart,




It can be shown that


2.4.5 Sampling


2.6 Time-Frequency Representations


2.6.1 Frequency, Scale and Resolution


The analysis functions for the wavelet transform will be defined as

Thus, large a’s (a ≫ 1) correspond to long basis functions in time, and will identify long-term trends in the signal to be analyzed.
