The Pairing of a Wavelet Basis With a Mildly Redundant Analysis via Subband Regression

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

A distinction is usually made between wavelet bases and wavelet frames. The former are associated with a one-to-one representation of signals, which is somewhat constrained but most efficient computationally. The latter are over-complete, but they offer ad ...

Complex Wavelet Bases, Steerability, and the Marr-Like Pyramid

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Our aim in this paper is to tighten the link between wavelets, some classical image-processing operators, and David Marr's theory of early vision. The cornerstone of our approach is a new complex wavelet basis that behaves like a smoothed version of the Gr ...

Generalized Daubechies Wavelet Families

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu, Cédric René Jean Vonesch

We present a generalization of the orthonormal Daubechies wavelets and of their related biorthogonal flavors (Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau, 9⁄7). Our fundamental constraint is that the scaling functions should reproduce a predefined set of exponential polynom ...

Multilevel preconditioners for elliptic problems with multiple scales

Klaus Sapelza

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate methods for the solution of multiscale problems both from the mathematical and numerical point of view, with a particular concern on applications to flows through heterogeneous porous media. After an overview of ...

Continuous Wavelet Transform on the Hyperboloid

Pierre Vandergheynst, Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst

In this paper we build a Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) on the upper sheet of the 2-hyperboloid

H_+^2

. First, we define a class of suitable dilations on the hyperboloid through conic projection. Then, incorporating hyperbolic motions belonging to $SO ...

Wavelets on non-Euclidean manifolds

Iva Bogdanova Vandergheynst

This dissertation investigates wavelets as a multiscale tool on non-Euclidean manifolds. The growing importance of using non-Euclidean manifolds as a geometric model for data comes from the diversity of the data collected. In this work we mostly deal with ...

From Differential Equations to the Construction of New Wavelet-Like Bases

Michaël Unser, Ildar Khalidov

In this paper, an approach is introduced based on differential operators to construct wavelet-like basis functions. Given a differential operator L with rational transfer function, elementary building blocks are obtained that are shifted replicates of the ...

WSPM or How to Obtain Statistical Parametric Maps Using Shift-Invariant Wavelet Processing

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Thierry Blu

Recently, we have proposed a new framework for detecting brain activity from fMRI data, which is based on the spatial discrete wavelet transform. The standard wavelet-based approach performs a statistical test in the wavelet domain, and therefore fails to ...

Non-Ideal Sampling and Adapted Reconstruction Using the Stochastic Matérn Model

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Sathish Ramani

The Matérn class is a parametric family of autocorrelation functions that is commonly used in geostatistics. We argue that a generalized, anisotropic version of this model is suitable for capturing the correlation structure of a variety of natural images. ...

Which Wavelet Bases Are the Best for Image Denoising?

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu, Florian Luisier

We use a comprehensive set of non-redundant orthogonal wavelet transforms and apply a denoising method called SUREshrink in each individual wavelet subband to denoise images corrupted by additive Gaussian white noise. We show that, for various images and a ...
