Abstract
The Signal and Image Processing Group at the Center for Theoretical Studies of Physical Systems has been developing wavelet-based systems for object/target detection, recognition, tracking and video compression applications.
In this presentation, the basics of discrete and continuous wavelets and their practical applications will be discussed. This discussion is mainly targetted for graduate and undergraduate students. It covers the characteristics of wavelets that distiguish them from other similar functions. It explains why wavelets are of interest to researchers in Signal Processing, Mathematics, Images Processing and other related fields. Then, we look closely into the applications of wavelets in Image Processing and present the research work currently being pursued at the Clark Atlanta University.
