We propose a parallel 2D wavelet transform algorithm with modest communication requirements. Data are transmitted between nearest neighbors only and the amount is independent of the problem size as well as the number of processors. An analysis of the theoretical performance shows that our algorithm is highly scalable approaching perfect speedup as the problem size is increased. The algorithm ru...

This paper aims to study the q-wavelet and the q-wavelet transforms, associated with the q-Bessel operator for a fix q ∈]0, 1[. As application, an inversion formulas of the q-Riemann-Liouville and q-Weyl transforms using q-wavelets are given. For this purpose, we shall attempt to extend the classical theory by giving their q-analogues.

We discuss the use of orthogonal wavelet transforms in multivariate data analysis methods such as clustering and dimensionality reduction. Wavelet transforms allow us to introduce multiresolution approximation, and multiscale nonparametric regression or smoothing, in a natural and integrated way into the data analysis. Applications illustrate the powerfulness of this new perspective on data ana...

An iterative method is purposed in this paper using the basis pursuit algorithm for spatial denoising, coupled with temporal wavelet denoising to result in a denoised video signal. Introduction Several new techniques have been developed recently for the purposes of denoising images. The most promising of these techniques have been the curvelet and undecimated wavelet transforms. Using a basis p...

This correspondence investigates M -band wavelet packets and a generalized framework for the design and efficient utilization of multirate filter bank trees (FBTs). While the increased flexibility of M -band wavelet packets over the standard 2-band wavelet packets is desirable in many signal processing applications, the possibilities in time-frequency design using arbitrary filter bank cascades...

In this paper we present a comparative study on fusion of visual and thermal images using different wavelet transformations. Here, coefficients of discrete wavelet transforms from both visual and thermal images are computed separately and combined. Next, inverse discrete wavelet transformation is taken in order to obtain fused face image. Both Haar and Daubechies (db2) wavelet transforms have b...

Symmetric extension is explored as a means for constructing nonexpansive reversible integer-to-integer (ITI) wavelet transforms for finite-length signals. Two families of reversible ITI wavelet transforms are introduced, and their constituent transforms are shown to be compatible with symmetric extension. One of these families is then studied in detail, and several interesting results concernin...

In this paper we show that discrete affine wavelet transforms can provide a tool for the analysis and synthesis of standard feedforward neural networks. It is shown that wavelet frames for L2(IR) can be constructed based upon sigmoids. The spatia-spectral localization property of wavelets can be exploited in defining the topology and determining the weights of a feedforward network. Training a ...

Standard DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform), being non-redundant, is a very powerful tool for many non-stationary Signal Processing applications, but it suffers from three major limitations; 1) shift sensitivity, 2) poor directionality, and 3) absence of phase information. To reduce these limitations, many researchers developed real-valued extensions to the standard DWT such as WP (Wavelet Packet...

Several algorithms are reviewed for computing various types of wavelet transforms: the Mallat algorithm, the “a trous” algorithm and their generalizations by Shensa. The goal is 1) to develop guidelines for implementing discrete and continuous wavelet transforms efficiently, 2) to compare the various algorithms obtained and give an idea of possible gains by providing operation counts. The compu...
