This blog post is a continuation of my previous post on ridgelet analysis. Motivated by the problem of finding efficient representation of objects, people introduced yet another representation system called the curvelet transform. This is very efficient in representing objects that have discontinuities along curves, and compressing image data as well. Curvelets are a non-adaptive technique … Continue reading Curvelet Analysis

Ridgelet Analysis
The pioneering work of researchers on signal processing paved the way to the powerful concept of multiresolution analysis. This is perhaps best known under the generic name of wavelets. Signals occur in the form of images, voice, radar, sonar, infrared etc. Different techniques have been developed over the years to understand these signals. Multiresolution provides … Continue reading Ridgelet Analysis
Wavelet Analysis
Wavelets are actually a topic of pure mathematics. But over the last couple of decades, they have shown great promise and are now being adapted for a vast number of applications. They are used in image compression, molecular dynamics, seismology, physics, DNA analysis etc. One of the main advantages of wavelet analysis is the amount … Continue reading Wavelet Analysis
