Wavelets with applications in signal- and image processing

Course web material

• Software
  • MATLAB Wavelet Toolbox. This toolbox is based on the Wavelets and Filter banks book by Strang and Nguyen.
    
  • WaveLab MATLAB package for various wavelet manipulations. Includes reference to Mallat's book
  • PiefLab MATLAB package for various wavelet manipulations.
  • WaveBox MATLAB package for various wavelet manipulations.
  • RWT (Rice MATLAB Wavlet toolbox) MATLAB package for wavelets and filter banks.
  • WAILI (Wavelet transform with integer lifting) Implements a basic library in C++. Especially 2D wavelet transforms for image processing. Can also handle large images.

• Home pages
  Several individual ``waveletters'' or institutions have collected a whole lot of information on the internet. Their web pages collect links to on-line wavelet introductions, wavelet bibliography, java-applets and other interactive demonstration software, homepages of wavelet people, preprint servers, etc. Some examples:
