Description and Table of Contents

Description

Wavelets are spatially localised functions whose amplitude drops off exponentially outside a small `window'. They are used to magnify experimental or numerical data and have become powerful tools in signal processing, image processing, and other fields of computational sciences. This book is a collection of chapters written by the five lecturers of a short course co-sponsored by the Institute of Computer Applications in Science and Engineering (ICASE).
