This work applies an algorithm to chose a best basis subset, tailored to fit a specific signal or class of signals, to two signal processing tasks: acoustic signal compression, and feature extraction in certain images.
Abstract
Wavelet packets are a versatile collection of functions generalizing the compactly supported wavelets of Daubechies. They are used to analyze and manipulate signals such as sound and images. We describe a library of such waveforms and demonstrate a few of their analytic properties. We also describe an algorithm to chose a best basis subset, tailored to fit a specific signal or class of signals. We apply this algorithm to two signal processing tasks: acoustic signal compression, and feature extraction in certain images.

Wavelet Transforms and their Applications to Turbulence

TL;DR: Wavelet transforms are recent mathematical techniques, based on group theory and square integrable representations, which allows one to unfold a signal, or a field, into both space and scale, and possibly directions.

For most large underdetermined systems of linear equations the minimal 1-norm solution is also the sparsest solution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider linear equations y = Φx where y is a given vector in ℝn and Φ is a n × m matrix with n 0 so that for large n and for all Φ's except a negligible fraction, the solution x1of the 1-minimization problem is unique and equal to x0.

Acoustic signal compression with wavelet packets

TL;DR: In this article, the wavelet transform is generalized to produce a library of orthonormal bases of modulated wavelet packets, where each basis comes with a fast transform, and hence give rise to the notion of a "best basis" for a signal subject to a given cost function.
