Book Description

0121745651 978-0121745653 August 24, 1998
Wavelets are considered by many to be the most powerful mathematical tool for signal and image processing. This unique CD-ROM boxed set contains three useful items: a copy of the text An Introduction to Wavelets by Charles Chui, a CD containing well-designed wavelets and signal processing software by computer scientist Steve Liu, and a booklet that serves both as the manual for the software and a quick reference guide to wavelet basics by electrical engineer Andrew Chan. The software supports all essential wavelets and allows users to put in additional wavelets of their choice and delete the ones they don't need. It also includes custom computation routines (in C-language) for wavelet signal processing. A flexible programming interface through the DLL standard allows the user to plug in new and original processing routines easily. This self-learning package provides the tools for the user to compare short time fourier transform and wavelet transform as well as the trade-off between time/spatial and frequency domain signal analysis.

Key Features
* Wavelet Toolware
* Continuous Wavelt Transforms for a one dimensional signal
* Discrete Wavelet Transforms
* Short Time Fourier Transform
* Computation and display of Scaling Function
* Computation and graphical display of Wavelets
* Mapping between B-Splines and their duals
* Decomposition of a one-dimensional signal
* Reconstruction of a one-dimensional signal
* Noise removal using hard thresholding
* One-dimensional and two-dimensional wavelet packet decomposition and reconstruction
* Allows user to put in additional wavelts of their choice an delete the ones they don't need
Wavelet Toolware is designed as a learning and experimentation toolk, not for solving high-precision computational problems; It works well as a self-contained package or in a learning environment in conjunction with An Introduction to Wavelets.
*An Introduction to Wavelets
@bul* Market leader as a comprehensive, yet accessible introduction to the state-of-the-art
* Time-frequency localization
* Integral wavelet transforms
* Dyadic wavelets
* Frames
* Spline-wavelets
* Orthonormal wavelet bases
* Wavelet packets
* Nonorthgonal, semi-orthogonal, and orthogonal wavelets

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Wavelets represent the state-of-the-art mathematical tools for signal and image processing. Indeed, wavelets will be included in the MPEG-4 video and JPEG-2000 image standards. Wavelets in a Box is a unique product, which provides a turnkey solution for wavelts newcomers. This box contains a paperback version of the best-selling An Introduction to Wavelets, as well as a copy of our new software package. Wavelet Toolware, which is software designed to provide the user with hands-on practice in the area of wavelet analysis and its applications. This software contains, among other algorithms and codes, the one-dimensional and two-dimensional Discrete Wavelt Transforms and their inverse transforms, as well as computations of the Continuous Wavelet Transform and the Short Time Fourier Transform. Simple signal processing applications, such as thresholding and noise removal, are als included as examples of how to use the software. Wavelet Toolware supports several different wavelts, including Daubechie orthonormal wavelets, linear B-spline and cubic B-spline wavelets, Battle-Lemarie spline wavelets, zeroth-and first-order Meyer wavelets, and biorthogonal Daubechies wavelets.
