A new monitoring approach for detecting, locating, and quantifying structurally weak reaches of steel-lined pressure tunnels and shafts is presented. These reaches arise from local deterioration of the backfill concrete and the rock mass surrounding the li ...
In this paper, a low complexity system for spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) is presented. The main idea of the proposed approach is the implementation of the Fast-Lomb periodogram that is a ubiquitous tool in spectral analysis, using a wav ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners produce raw measurements that are unfit to direct interpretation, unless an algorithmic step, called reconstruction, is introduced. Up to the last decade, this reconstruction was performed by algorithms of moderate ...
We introduce a new wavelet-based method for the implementation of Total-Variation-type denoising. The data term is least-squares, while the regularization term is gradient-based. The particularity of our method is to exploit a link between the discrete gra ...
The rate distortion behavior of sparse memoryless sources is studied. These serve as models of sparse signal representations and facilitate the performance analysis of "sparsifying" transforms like the wavelet transform and nonlinear approximation schemes. ...

We consider the denoising of signals and images using regularized least-squares method. In particular, we propose a simple minimization algorithm for regularizers that are functions of the discrete gradient. By exploiting the connection of the discrete gr ...
The Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) has gained the momentum in signal processing and image compression over the last decade bringing the concept up to the level of new image coding standard JPEG2000. Thanks to many added values in DWT, in particular inher ...
We introduce a systematic and practical design for steerable wavelet frames in 3D. Our steerable wavelets are obtained by applying a 3D version of the generalized Riesz transform to a primary isotropic wavelet frame. The novel transform is self-reversible ...

Context. Future cosmological surveys will provide 3D large scale structure maps with large sky coverage, for which a 3D spherical Fourier-Bessel (SFB) analysis in spherical coordinates is natural. Wavelets are particularly well-suited to the analysis and d ...
We present a comparative study of the performance of different basis functions for the nonparametric modeling of neural activity in response to natural stimuli. Based on naturalistic video sequences, a generative model of neural activity was created using ...
