Wavelets on Graphs via Spectral Graph Theory

Pierre Vandergheynst, Rémi Gribonval

We propose a novel method for constructing wavelet transforms of functions defined on the vertices of an arbitrary finite graph. We define a notion of scaling using the graph analogue of the Fourier domain, namely the space of eigenfunctions forming the sp ...

Self-Similarity: Part I—Splines and Operators

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

The central theme of this pair of papers (Parts I and II in this issue) is self-similarity, which is used as a bridge for connecting splines and fractals. The first part of the investigation is deterministic, and the context is that of L-splines; these are ...

Polyharmonic Smoothing Splines and the Multidimensional Wiener Filtering of Fractal-Like Signals

Michaël Unser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Motivated by the fractal-like behavior of natural images, we develop a smoothing technique that uses a regularization functional which is a fractional iterate of the Laplacian. This type of functional was initially introduced by Duchon for the approximatio ...

Generalized L-Spline Wavelet Bases

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu, Ildar Khalidov

We build wavelet-like functions based on a parametrized family of pseudo-differential operators

L _{ v }

that satisfy some admissibility and scalability conditions. The shifts of the generalized B-splines, which are localized versions of the Green func ...

Cardinal Exponential Splines: Part I—Theory and Filtering Algorithms

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

Causal exponentials play a fundamental role in classical system theory. Starting from those elementary building blocks, we propose a complete and self-contained signal processing formulation of exponential splines defined on a uniform grid. We specify the ...

Harmonic Spline Series Representation of Scaling Functions

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

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 ...

Splines and Wavelets: New Perspectives for Pattern Recognition

Michaël Unser

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 ...

Wavelets, Fractals, and Radial Basis Functions

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

Wavelets and radial basis functions (RBFs) lead to two distinct ways of representing signals in terms of shifted basis functions. RBFs, unlike wavelets, are nonlocal and do not involve any scaling, which makes them applicable to nonuniform grids. Despite t ...

Splines: A Perfect Fit for Medical Imaging

Michaël Unser

Splines, which were invented by Schoenberg more than fifty years ago, constitute an elegant framework for dealing with interpolation and discretization problems. They are widely used in computer-aided design and computer graphics, but have been neglected i ...

Nondyadic and nonlinear multiresolution image approximations

Maria Arrate Munoz Barrutia

This thesis focuses on the development of novel multiresolution image approximations. Specifically, we present two kinds of generalization of multiresolution techniques: image reduction for arbitrary scales, and nonlinear approximations using other metrics ...
