We provide an overview of spline and wavelet techniques with an emphasis on applications in pattern recognition. The presentation is divided in three parts. In the first one, we argue that the spline representation is ideally suited for all processing task ...
In 1983, Burt and Adelson introduced the Laplacian pyramid (LP) as a multiresolution representation for images. We study the LP using the frame theory, and this reveals that the usual reconstruction is suboptimal. We show that the LP with orthogonal filter ...
We present here an explicit time-domain representation of any compactly supported dyadic scaling function as a sum of harmonic splines. The leading term in the decomposition corresponds to the fractional splines, a recent, continuous-order generalization o ...
The LeGall 5⁄3 and Daubechies 9⁄7 filters have risen to special prominence because they were selected for inclusion in the JPEG2000 standard. Here, we determine their key mathematical features: Riesz bounds, order of approximation, and regularity (Hölder a ...
In recent years, wavelet-based algorithms have been successful in different signal processing tasks. The wavelet trans- form is a powerful tool because it manages to represent both tran- sient and stationary behaviors of a signal with few transform coeffi- ...
A new method of physical activity monitoring is presented, which is able to detect body postures (sitting, standing, and lying) and periods of walking in elderly persons using only one kinematic sensor attached to the chest. The wavelet transform, in conju ...
The work presented in this paper extends the concept of sub-band video coding based on a 3D wavelet transform to a more adaptive approach. A formal comparison is presented between the performances inferred by the use of the 3D wavelet transform and the use ...
Complex wavelet transforms offer the opportunity to perform directional and coherent processing based on the local magnitude and phase of signals and images. Although denoising, segmentation, and image enhancement are significantly improved using complex w ...
We describe a new family of scaling functions, the (α, τ)-fractional splines, which generate valid multiresolution analyses. These functions are characterized by two real parameters: α, which controls the width of the scaling functions; and τ, which specif ...
The invention relates to a device and a method for measuring gait parameters. It is based on autonomous sensing units for estimation of spatio-temporal parameters during walking and uses a wavelet transform to compute the values of gait parameters from the ...
