The construction of multivariate periodic wavelet bi-frames

This paper addresses periodic wavelet bi-frames associated with general expansive matrices. Periodization is an important method to obtain periodic wavelets from wavelets on R^d${\mathbb{R}}^d$. MEP and MOEP provide us with criteria for the construction of wavelet bi-frames on R^d${\mathbb{R}}^d$. Based on periodization techniques, MEP and MOEP, periodic wavelet bi-frames associated with the dyadic matrix have been constructed. However, the problem of constructing periodic wavelet bi-frames associated with general expansive matrices is still open. The geometry of a general expansive matrix is much more complicated than the dyadic matrix. In this paper, with the help of quasi-norms, MEP and MOEP we construct periodic wavelet bi-frames associated with general expansive matrices.     

Wavelet frames and shift-invariant subspaces of periodic functions

A general approach based on polyphase splines, with analysis in the frequency domain, is developed for studying wavelet frames of periodic functions of one or higher dimensions. Characterizations of frames for shift-invariant subspaces of periodic functions and results on the structure of these subspaces are obtained. Starting from any multiresolution analysis, a constructive proof is provided for the existence of a normalized tight wavelet frame. The construction gives the minimum number of wavelets required. As an illustration of the approach developed, the one-dimensional dyadic case is further discussed in detail, concluding with a concrete example of trigonometric polynomial wavelet frames.     

Compactly supported (bi)orthogonal wavelets generated by interpolatory refinable functions

This paper provides several constructions of compactly supported wavelets generated by interpolatory refinable functions. It was shown in [7] that there is no real compactly supported orthonormal symmetric dyadic refinable function, except the trivial case; and also shown in [10,18] that there is no compactly supported interpolatory orthonormal dyadic refinable function. Hence, for the dyadic dilation case, compactly supported wavelets generated by interpolatory refinable functions have to be biorthogonal wavelets. The key step to construct the biorthogonal wavelets is to construct a compactly supported dual function for a given interpolatory refinable function. We provide two explicit iterative constructions of such dual functions with desired regularity. When the dilation factors are larger than 3, we provide several examples of compactly supported interpolatory orthonormal symmetric refinable functions from a general method. This leads to several examples of orthogonal symmetric (anti‐symmetric) wavelets generated by interpolatory refinable functions. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Construction of Periodic Prolate Spheroidal Wavelets Using Interpolation

Periodic prolate spheroidal wavelets (periodic PS wavelets), based on the periodizaton of the first prolate spheroidal wave function (PSWF), were recently introduced by the authors. Because of localization and other properties, these periodic PS wavelets could serve as an alternative to Fourier series for applications in modeling periodic signals. In this paper, we continue our work with periodic PS wavelets and direct our attention to their construction via interpolation. We show that they have a representation in terms of interpolation with the modified Dirichlet kernel. We then derive a group of formulas of interpolation type based on this representation. These formulas enable one to obtain a simple procedure for the calculation of the periodic PS wavelets and finding expansion coefficients. In particular, they are used to compute filter coefficients for the periodic PS wavelets. This is done for a number of concrete cases.     

Periodic Prolate Spheroidal Wavelets

Prolate spheroidal wavelets (PS wavelets) were recently introduced by the authors. They were based on the first prolate spheroidal wave function (PSWF) and had many desirable properties lacking in other wavelets. In particular, the subspaces belonging to the associated multiresolution analysis (MRA) were shown to be closed under differentiation and translation. In this paper, we introduce periodic prolate spheroidal wavelets. These periodic wavelets are shown to possess properties inherited from PS wavelets such as differentiation and translation. They have the potential for applications in modeling periodic phenomena as an alternative to the usual periodic wavelets as well as the Fourier basis.

Tight frames and geometric properties of wavelet sets

A construction for providing single dyadic orthonormal wavelets in Euclidean space ℝ^d is given. It is called the general neighborhood mapping construction. The fact that one wavelet is sufficient to generate an orthonormal basis for L²(ℝ^d) is the critical issue. The validity of the construction is proved, and the construction is implemented computationally to provide a host of examples illustrating various geometrical properties of such wavelets in the spectral domain. Because of the inherent complexity of these single orthonormal wavelets, the method is applied to the construction of single dyadic tight frame wavelets, and these tight frame wavelets can be surprisingly simple in nature. The structure of the spectral domains of the wavelets arising from the general neighborhood mapping construction raises a basic geometrical question. There is also the question of whether or not the general neighborhood mapping construction gives rise to all single dyadic orthonormal wavelets. Results are proved giving partial answers to both of these questions. Dedicated to Charles A. Micchelli for his 60th birthday Mathematics subject classification (2000) 42C40. John J.

Wavelets associated with nonuniform multiresolution analyses and one-dimensional spectral pairs

A generalization of Mallat's classic multiresolution analysis (MRA), based on the theory of spectral pairs, was considered in two papers by Gabardo and Nashed. In this nonstandard setting, the translation set is no longer a subgroup or a translate of a subgroup of R, but is a spectrum associated with a one-dimensional spectral pair. In this paper, we continue the study based on this nonstandard setting and give the characterization for nonuniform wavelets associated with a nonuniform MRA. These characterizations are consistent with both the known necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nonuniform MRA wavelets and the known characterization for standard dyadic wavelets associated with an MRA.     

Dimension Functions of Orthonormal Wavelets

The article is devoted to dimension functions of orthonormal wavelets on the real line with dyadic dilations. We describe properties of dimension functions and prove several characterization theorems. In addition, we provide a method of construction of dimension functions. Various new examples of dimension functions and orthonormal wavelets are included.     

Periodic Wavelets from Scratch

Periodic wavelets can be constructed from most standard wavelets by periodization. In this work we first derive some of their properties and then construct the periodic wavelets directly from their Fourier series without reference to standard wavelets. Several examples are given some of which are not constructable from the usual wavelets on the real line.     

BIVARIATE REAL-VALUED ORTHOGONAL PERIODIC WAVELETS

In this paper, we construct a kind of bivariate real-valued orthogonal periodic wavelets. The corresponding decomposition and reconstruction algorithms involve only 8 terms respectively which are very simple in practical computation. Moreover, the relation between periodic wavelets and Fourier series is also discussed.     

Two-dimension periodic cardinal interpolatory wavelets

In this paper, we construct two-dimension periodic interpolatory scaling function and wavelets from a periodic function g(x₁, x₂), whose Fourier coefficients are positive, and obtain some properties of scaling functions and wavelets.     

Directional Wavelet Bases Constructions with Dyadic Quincunx Subsampling

We construct directional wavelet systems that will enable building efficient signal representation schemes with good direction selectivity. In particular, we focus on wavelet bases with dyadic quincunx subsampling. In our previous work (Yin, in: Proceedings of the 2015 international conference on sampling theory and applications (SampTA), 2015), we show that the supports of orthonormal wavelets in our framework are discontinuous in the frequency domain, yet this irregularity constraint can be avoided in frames, even with redundancy factor <2. In this paper, we focus on the extension of orthonormal wavelets to biorthogonal wavelets and show that the same obstruction of regularity as in orthonormal schemes exists in biorthogonal schemes. In addition, we provide a numerical algorithm for biorthogonal wavelets construction where the dual wavelets can be optimized, though at the cost of deteriorating the primal wavelets due to the intrinsic irregularity of biorthogonal schemes.

二元实值正交周期Box样条小波

In this paper, we construct a kind of bivariate real-valued orthogonal periodic box-spline wavelets. There are only 4 terms in the two-scale dilation equations. This implies that the corresponding decomposition and reconstruction algorithms involve only 4 terms respectively which are simple in practical computation. The relation between the periodic wavelets and Fourier series is also discussed.     

Designing Multiresolution Analysis-type Wavelets and Their Fast Algorithms

Often, the Dyadic Wavelet Transform is performed and implemented with the Daubechies wavelets, the Battle-Lemarie wavelets, or the splines wavelets, whereas in continuous-time wavelet decomposition a much larger variety of mother wavelets is used. Maintaining the dyadic time-frequency sampling and the recursive pyramidal computational structure, we present various methods for constructing wavelets ψ_wanted, with some desired shape and properties and which are associated with semi-orthogonal multiresolution analyses. We explain in detail how to design any desired wavelet, starting from any given multiresolution analysis. We also explicitly derive the formulae of the filter bank structure that implements the designed wavelet. We illustrate these wavelet design techniques with examples that we have programmed with Matlab routines.     

Discretizing continuous wavelet transforms using integrated wavelets

We present integrated wavelets as a method for discretizing the continuous wavelet transform. Using the language of group theory, the results are presented for wavelet transforms over semidirect product groups. We obtain tight wavelet frames for these wavelet transforms. Further integrated wavelets yield tight families of convolution operators independent of the choice of discretization of scale and orientation parameters. Thus these families can be adapted to specific problems. The method is more flexible than the well-known dyadic wavelet transform. We state an exact algorithm for implementing this transform. As an application the enhancement of digital mammograms is presented.     

Uncertainty products of local periodic wavelets

This paper is on the angle–frequency localization of periodic scaling functions and wavelets. It is shown that the uncertainty products of uniformly local, uniformly regular and uniformly stable scaling functions and wavelets are uniformly bounded from above by a constant. Results for the construction of such scaling functions and wavelets are also obtained. As an illustration, scaling functions and wavelets associated with a family of generalized periodic splines are studied. This family is generated by periodic weighted convolutions, and it includes the well‐known periodic B‐splines and trigonometric B‐splines.
