The Discrete Wavelet Transform in S

نویسنده

چکیده

The theory of wavelets has recently undergone a period of rapid development. We introduce a software package called wavethresh that works within the statistical language S to perform oneand two-dimensional discrete wavelet transforms. The transforms and their inverses can be computed using any particular wavelet selected from a range of di erent families of wavelets. Pictures can be drawn of any of the oneor twodimensional wavelets available in the package. The wavelet coe cients can be presented in a variety of ways to aid in the interpretation of data. The package's wavelet transform \engine" is written in C for speed and the object-orientated functionality of S makes wavethresh easy to use. We provide a tutorial introduction to wavelets and the wavethresh software. We also discuss how the software may be used to carry out nonlinear regression and image compression. In particular, thresholding of wavelet coe cients is a method for attempting to extract signal from noise and wavethresh includes functions to perform thresholding according to methods in the literature.

Fixing of Cycle Slips in Dual-Frequency GPS Phase Observables using Discrete Wavelet Transforms

The occurrence of cycle slips is a major limiting factor for achievement of sub-decimeter accuracy in positioning with GPS (Global Positioning System). In the past, several authors introduced a method based on different combinations of GPS data together with Kalman filter to solve the problem of the cycle slips. In this paper the same philosophy is used but with discrete wavelet transforms. For...

Some New Methods for Prediction of Time Series by Wavelets

Extended Abstract. Forecasting is one of the most important purposes of time series analysis. For many years, classical methods were used for this aim. But these methods do not give good performance results for real time series due to non-linearity and non-stationarity of these data sets. On one hand, most of real world time series data display a time-varying second order structure. On th...
