Efficient Algorithms for Discrete Wavelet Transform

by K. K. Shukla

<p>Transforms are an important part of an engineer’s toolkit for solving signal processing and polynomial computation problems. In contrast to the Fourier transform-based approaches where a fixed window is used uniformly for a range of frequencies, the wavelet transform uses short windows at high frequencies and long windows at low frequencies. This way, the characteristics of non-stationary disturbances can be more closely monitored. In other words, both time and frequency information can be obtained by wavelet transform. Instead of transforming a pure <i>time description</i> into a pure...
