Ridgelets: Estimating with Ridge Functions

نویسنده

  • Emmanuel J. Candès
چکیده

Feedforward neural networks, projection pursuit regression, and more generally, estimation via ridge functions have been proposed as an approach to bypass the curse of dimensionality and are now becoming widely applied to approximation or prediction in applied sciences. To address problems inherent to these methods – ranging from the construction of neural networks to their efficiency and capability – Candes (1999d) developed a new system that allows the representation of arbitrary functions as superpositions of specific ridge functions, the ridgelets.

Ridge Functions and Orthonormal Ridgelets

Orthonormal ridgelets are a specialized set of angularly-integrated ridge functions which make up an orthonormal basis for L2(R). In this paper we explore the relationship between orthonormal ridgelets and true ridge functions r(x1 cos θ + x2 sin θ). We derive a formula giving the ridgelet coefficients of a ridge function in terms of the 1-D wavelet coefficients of the ridge profile r(t), and w...

Orthonormal Ridgelets and Linear Singularities

We construct a new orthonormal basis for L(R), whose elements are angularly integrated ridge functions — orthonormal ridgelets. The new basis functions are in L(R) and so are to be distinguished from the ridge function approximation system called ridgelets by Candès (1997, 1998), as ridge functions are not in L(R). Orthonormal ridgelet expansions have an interesting application in nonlinear app...

Ridgelets : a key to higher - dimensional intermittency ?

In dimensions two and higher, wavelets can efficiently represent only a small range of the full diversity of interesting behavior. In effect, wavelets are welladapted for pointlike phenomena, whereas in dimensions greater than one, interesting phenomena can be organized along lines, hyperplanes, and other nonpointlike structures, for which wavelets are poorly adapted. We discuss in this paper a...

Ridgelets and Their Derivatives: Representation of Images with Edges

This paper reviews the development of several recent tools from computational harmonic analysis. These new systems are presented under a coherent perspective, namely, the representation of bivariate functions that are singular along smooth curves (edges). First, the representation of functions that are smooth away from straight edges is presented, and ridgelets will be shown to provide near opt...

Monoscale Ridgelets for the Representation of Images with Edges

In a previous paper [1], the author introduced a new system for representing multivariate functions, namely, the ridgelets. In a following article [3], ridgelets were shown to be optimal for representing functions that are smooth away from hyperplanes, e.g. in two dimensions ridgelets provide optimally sparse representations of smooth functions that are discontinuous along lines, i.e. straight ...
