in exploration seismology quality factor is widely used as a seismic attribute to identify anomalies related to attenuation, especially those caused by hydrocarbon. previous studies have indicated that seismic energy loss known as attenuation is greater for high frequency components of seismic data compared to the low frequency components. here the continuous wavelet transform is used to study ...

An image compression algorithm based on wavelet packet transform is introduced. The algorithm extends the parent-children link established across dyadic wavelet decomposition bands to a parent-children link across wavelet packet decomposition bands. Then, a method proposed for the efficient encoding of dyadic wavelet transform coefficients [1] is used for encoding of wavelet packet transform co...

Besides many advantages of wavelet transform, it has several drawbacks, e.g. ringing, shift variance, aliasing and lack of directionality. Some of them can be eliminated by using wavelet packet transform, stationary wavelet transform, complex wavelet transform, adaptive directional lifting-based wavelet transform, or adaptive wavelet filter banks that use either L2 or L1 norm. This paper contai...

The wavelet transform has become a useful computational tool for a variety of signal and image processing applications. For example, the wavelet transform is useful for the compression of digital image files; smaller files are important for storing images using less memory and for transmitting images faster and more reliably. The FBI uses wavelet transforms for compressing digitally scanned fin...

Introduction: SPECT is a diagnostic imaging technique the main disadvantage of which is the existence of Poisson noise. So far, different methods have been used by scientists to improve SPECT images. The Wavelet Transform is a new method for de-noising which is widely used for noise reduction and quality enhancement of images. The purpose of this paper is evaluation of noise reduction in SPECT ...

Asymptotic expansions of the wavelet transform for large and small values of the translation parameter b are obtained using asymptotic expansions of the Fourier transforms of the function and the wavelet. Asymptotic expansions of Mexican hat wavelet transform, Morlet wavelet transform, and Haar wavelet transform are obtained as special cases. Asymptotic expansion of the wavelet transform has al...

Quality control of textile products is an important stage in textile industries. To this end, the conventional method in fault detection is human inspection. In the present work, Wavelet transform was applied on images of simple circular knitted fabrics to diagnose five regular defects. The results showed that the method applied was accurate and fast in addition to being capable of determining ...

This paper presents a novel image watermarking technique using Kekre’s algorithm to generate hybrid wavelet transform DKT_DCT from Kekre transform and Discrete Cosine Transform. In the proposed technique, 256x256 hybrid transform is generated using 16x16 Kekre transform and 16x16 DCT whereas, 128x128 hybrid wavelet transform is generated using 32x32 Kekre transform and 4x4 DCT matrix. Generated...
