Abstract
A multiresolution approximation is a sequence of embedded vector spaces   V j  jmember Z for approximating L 2 (R) functions. We study the properties of a multiresolution approximation and prove that it is characterized by a 2π periodic function which is further described. From any multiresolution approximation, we can derive a function ψ(x) called a wavelet such that   √  2 j ψ(2 j x −k)   (k ,j)member Z 2 is an orthonormal basis of L 2 (R). This provides a new approach for understanding and computing wavelet orthonormal bases. Finally, we characterize the asymptotic decay rate of multiresolution approximation errors for functions in a Sobolev space H s .

Grey-Box Modelling for Nonlinear Systems

Jan Hauth
TL;DR: This doctoral thesis has two aims: the improvement of an existing neuro-fuzzy approach (LOLIMOT algorithm), and the development of a new model class with corresponding identification algorithm, based on multiresolution analysis (wavelets) and statistical methods.

Fiscal policy tracking design in the time–frequency domain using wavelet analysis

TL;DR: In this article, discrete wavelet filtering techniques are applied to decompose macroeconomic data so that they can be simultaneously analyzed in both the time and frequency domains, and a MATLAB program is then used to design optimal fiscal policy within an LQ tracking model with wavelet decomposition, and the results are compared with an aggregate model with no frequency decomposition.

A theory for multiresolution signal decomposition: the wavelet representation

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the difference of information between the approximation of a signal at the resolutions 2/sup j+1/ and 2 /sup j/ (where j is an integer) can be extracted by decomposing this signal on a wavelet orthonormal basis of L/sup 2/(R/sup n/), the vector space of measurable, square-integrable n-dimensional functions.

Decomposition of Hardy functions into square integrable wavelets of constant shape

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied square integrable coefficients of an irreducible representation of the non-unimodular $ax + b$-group and obtained explicit expressions in the case of a particular analyzing family that plays a role analogous to coherent states (Gabor wavelets) in the usual $L_2 $ -theory.
