So what is all the fuss about wavelets?
You can find out by reading these notes. They will introduce you to the
central concepts surrounding wavelets and their applications. By
focusing on the essential ideas and arguments, they enable you to get
to the heart of the matter as quickly as possible. They then point
you to the appropriate places in the literature for detailed proofs and
real applications, so you can continue your study.
They begin with the notion of time-frequency analysis, present the
multiresolution analysis and basic wavelet construction, introduce you
to the many friends, relatives and mutations of wavelets, and finally
give a selection of applications.
They are suitable for beginning graduate students and above.
A preliminary chapter containing some of the prerequisite concepts
and definitions is included for reference.
Keywords: Wavelet, time-frequency analysis, multiresolution analysis, fast wavelet transform, filter banks
