This paper considers the wavelet transform generated by iterating orthonormal power-complementary IIR filter pairs with perfect reconstruction properties. For the implementation of complementary IIR filter pair, the realization structure based on two allpass subfilters in parallel connection is used. The decomposition and reconstruction properties of the example wavelet banks composed of the fi...

As more and more digital images are distributed on-line via the Internet and World-Wide Web, many copyright owners are concerned about protecting the copyright of digital images. This paper describes WaveMark, a novel wavelet-based multiresolution digital watermarking system for color images. The algorithm in WaveMark uses discrete wavelet transforms and error-correcting coding schemes to provi...

In this paper, a spectrally formulated wavelet finite element is developed and is used to study coupled wave propagation in higher order composite beams. The beam element has four degrees of freedom at each node, namely axial and transverse displacements, shear and contraction. The formulation is used to perform both frequency and time domain analysis. The formulation is similar to conventional...

A unifying algorithm has been developed to systematize the collection of compact Daubechies wavelets computable by spectral factorization of a symmetric positive polynomial. This collection comprises all classes of real and complex orthogonal and biorthogonal wavelet filters with maximal flatness for their minimal length. The main algorithm incorporates spectral factorization of the Daubechies ...

We present a new family of compactly supported and symmetric biorthogonal wavelet systems. Each refinement mask in this family has tension parameter ω. When ω = 0, it becomes the minimal length biorthogonal Coifman wavelet system [22]. Choosing ω away from zero, we can get better smoothness of the refinable functions at the expense of slightly larger support. Though the construction of the new ...

This paper explains a study conducted based on wavelet based transform techniques. We have used discrete wavelet transform and wavelet packet decomposition. The database is created by using Malayalam (one of the south Indian Languages) language spoken words. Daubechies type of mother wavelet was used for the experiment. Six hundred and forty samples are collected, for the experiment. The featur...

Digitized images have replaced analog images as photographs or x-rays in many different fields. In their raw form, digital images require a tremendous memory capacity for storage and large amount of bandwidth for transmission. In the last two decades, many researchers have been devoted to develop new techniques for image compression. More recently, wavelets have become a cutting edge technology...

A lterbank decomposition can be seen as a series of projections onto several discrete wavelet subspaces. In this presentation, we analyze the projection onto one of them|the low-pass one, since many signals tend to be low-pass. We prove a general but simple formula that allows the computation of thè 2-error made by approximating the signal by its projection. This result provides a norm for eval...

In order to create a photorealistic VR model, we have to record the appearance of the object from different directions under different illuminations. In this paper, we propose a method which renders photorealistic images from small size of data. First, we separates the images of the object into diffuse reflection component and specular reflection component by using circular polarizers. Then, we...
