Multiresolution approximations and wavelet orthonormal bases of L^2(R)
TLDR
In this paper, the authors study the properties of multiresolution approximation and prove that it is characterized by a 2π periodic function, which is further described in terms of wavelet orthonormal bases.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 .read more

Discrete Wavelet Transform
Robert X. Gao,Ruqiang Yan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to reduce redundancy in the wavelet coefficients among different scales as much as possible, while at the same time, avoiding sacrificing the information contained in the original signal.

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.
