This paper introduces a new implementation of wavelet packet decomposition which is combined with SPIHT (Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees) compression scheme. We provide the analysis of the problems arising from the application of zerotree quantisation based algorithms (such as SPIHT) to wavelet packet transform coefficients. We established the generalized parent–child relationships for w...

We give a brief review of some of the wavelet-based techniques currently available for the analysis of arbitrary-length discrete time series. We discuss the maximal overlap discrete wavelet packet transform (MODWPT), a non-decimated version of the usual discrete wavelet packet transform, and a special case, the maximal overlap discrete wavelet transform (MODWT). Using least-asymmetric or coifle...

The automatic recognition and classification of speech under stress has applications in behavioural and mental health sciences, human to machine communication and robotics. The majority of recent studies are based on a linear model of the speech signal. In this study, the nonlinear Teager Energy Operator (TEO) analysis was used to derive the classification features. Moreover, the TEO analysis w...

Insulation used in transformer is mostly oil pressboard insulation. Insulation failure is one of the major causes of catastrophic failure of transformers. It is established that partial discharges (PD) cause insulation degradation and premature failure of insulation. Online monitoring of PDs can reduce the risk of catastrophic failure of transformers. There are different techniques of partial d...

In this paper, an object-based embedded image coding algorithm based on context classification and quadtree ordering in wavelet packet domain (OB-CCAQO) is proposed. To match up well with the quadtree-based embedded coder, a new cost function for the best basis selection is adopted in SA-DWPT (shape adaptive discrete wavelet packet transform). The significance probability of wavelet coefficient...

The 2-band discrete wavelet transform (DWT) provides an octave-band analysis in the frequency domain, but this might not be ‘optimal’ for a given signal. The discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT) provides a dictionary of bases over which one can search for an optimal representation (without constraining the analysis to an octave-band one) for the signal at hand. However, it is well known tha...

In this paper, an algorithm for wavelet packet trees that can systematically identify all bit allocations/best-basis selections on the lower convex hull of the rate-distortion curve is presented. The algorithm is applied to tree-structured vector quantizers used to code image subbands that result from the wavelet packet decomposition. This method is compared to optimal bit allocation for the di...

The standard methods for decomposition and analysis of evoked potentials are bandpass filtering, identification of peak amplitudes and latencies, and principal component analysis (PCA). We discuss the limitations of these and other approaches and introduce wavelet packet analysis. Then we propose the "single-channel wavelet packet model," a new approach in which a unique decomposition is achiev...

The orthonormal basis generated by a wavelet of L(R) has poor frequency localization. To overcome this disadvantage Coifman, Meyer, and Wickerhauser constructed wavelet packets. We extend this concept to the higher dimensions where we consider arbitrary dilation matrices. The resulting basis of L(R) is called the multiwavelet packet basis. The concept of wavelet frame packet is also generalized...
