Building good sparse approximations of functions is one of the major themes in approximation theory. When applied to signals, images or any kind of data, it allows to deal with basic building blocks that essentially synthesize all the information at hand. ...
Grammar-based compression means to find a small grammar that generates a given object. Such a grammar reveals the structure of the object (according to the grammar formalism used); the main advantage of this compression method is that the resulting grammar ...
In the present paper we propose a new framework for the construction of meaningful dictionaries for sparse representation of signals. The dictionary approach to coding and compression proves very attractive since decomposing a signal over a redundant set o ...
Tree structures for computing orthogonal transforms are introduced. Two cases, delay trees and decimation trees, are investigated. A simple condition, namely the orthogonality of branches with a common root, is shown to be necessary and sufficient for the ...
In a bog site in way of paludification, a pine stand is declining, which presently is an infrequent phenomenon on the Swiss Jura scale. A transect was positioned in the bog, from the external and driest part (pine-spruce stand) towards the central and wett ...
