Academic Press Wavelets: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications (Volume 5) (Wavelet Analysis and Its Applications, Volume 5)

Wavelets: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications is the fifth volume in the highly respected series, WAVELET ANALYSIS AND ITS APPLICATIONS. This volume shows why wavelet analysis has become a tool of choice infields ranging from image compression, to signal detection and analysis in electrical engineering and geophysics, to analysis of turbulent or intermittent processes. The 28 papers comprising this volume are organized into seven subject areas: multiresolution analysis, wavelet transforms, tools for time-frequency analysis, wavelets and fractals, numerical methods and algorithms, and applications. More than 135 figures supplement the text. Features theory, techniques, and applicationsPresents alternative theoretical approaches including multiresolution analysis, splines, minimum entropy, and fractal aspectsContributors cover a broad range of approaches and applications
