Gabor Wavelet Analysis and the Fractional Hilbert Transform

Michaël Unser, Kunal Narayan Chaudhury

We propose an amplitude-phase representation of the dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DT-ℂWT) which provides an intuitive interpretation of the associated complex wavelet coefficients. The representation, in particular, is based on the shifting action o ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Complex B-Splines

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

We propose a complex generalization of Schoenberg's cardinal splines. To this end, we go back to the Fourier domain definition of the B-splines and extend it to complex-valued degrees. We show that the resulting complex B-splines are piecewise modulated po ...

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 ...

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 ...

Semi-Orthogonal Wavelets That Behave like Fractional Differentiators

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

The approximate behavior of wavelets as differential operators is often considered as one of their most fundamental properties. In this paper, we investigate how we can further improve on the wavelet's behavior as differentiator. In particular, we propose ...

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 ...

Fractional Splines, Wavelet Bases, and Applications

Michaël Unser

The purpose of this presentation is to describe a recent family of basis functions—the fractional B-splines—which appear to be intimately connected to fractional calculus. Among other properties, we show that they are the convolution kernels that link the ...
