 Wavelet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wavelets, wavelet analysis, and the wavelet transform refers to the representation of a signal in terms of a finite length oscillating waveform (known as the mother wavelet).
The mother wavelet is scaled (or dilated) by a factor of a and translated (or shifted) by a factor of b.
The wavelets forming a CWT are subject to Heisenberg 's uncertainty principle and, equivalently, discrete wavelet bases may be considered in the context of other forms of the uncertainty principle.

For the FFT fast convolution to be free of wraparound effects that arise as a consequence of non-periodicity in both the data and the response function (daughter wavelet), zero padding is needed equal to the half the length of the non-zero elements in the daughter wavelet's frequency response.

 THE WAVELET TUTORIAL PART III by ROBI POLIKAR   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
The wavelet analysis is done in a similar way to the STFT analysis, in the sense that the signal is multiplied with a function, {\it the wavelet}, similar to the window function in the STFT, and the transform is computed separately for different segments of the time-domain signal.
The mother wavelet is chosen to serve as a prototype for all windows in the process.
The Morlet wavelet and the Mexican hat function are two candidates, and they are used for the wavelet analysis of the examples which are presented later in this chapter.

Wavelet transforms: The two wavelet transforms discussed in Chapter 2, the Morlet wavelet and the Mexican hat wavelet, will both be explored in this research.
The Morlet wavelet, used to reduce the amount of noise in the image uses the following formula: Morlet transform For each pixel position (x0, y0), the transform changes the value of that pixel, depending on a weighted average of the surrounding pixels (x, y).
Correlation: Once the images have been modified by a wavelet transform, it is important to have a method of determining the correlation between the pair of images.

 Patent 5848193: Wavelet projection transform features applied to real time pattern recognition   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
The unknown object is transformed by a digital camera into an image and transformed by a wavelet projection transform so as to decompose the unknown objects into their constituent multi-scale edge segment features and provide recognition of the unknown object by relating their constituent edge features to each other.
The superposition is correlated with four (4) dimensional signals representative of classes of the prototypes of which a strong correlation signal indicates the recognition of the unknown object, i.e., the unknown object being in the same class as a particular prototype object 43.
Both wavelet projection transforms (WPTs), as well as the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and the continuous wavelet transform (CWT), are over three spatial scales (3-5 levels down), with the lowest resolution (e.g., level 3) on the top and the highest (e.g., level 1) on the bottom as generally indicated in FIG.

The continuous wavelet transform (1) is rarely used in applications because it leads in general to a highly redundant representation of the signal that is rather expensive from a computational point of view.
The basic principle of a wavelet based compression scheme can be subdivided into three major steps: the input signal is transformed in order to decorrelate adjacent signal samples, then the entropy of the resulting coefficients is reduced by quantization.
Hence, after the quantization a large part of the wavelet coefficients is zero, so that for a proper choice of the wavelet we obtain a compact description of the signal.
