Abstract: | A ‘wavelet’ is a function that exhibits oscillatory behaviour in some interval and then decays rapidly to zero outside this interval. A remarkable discovery of recent years is that the translations and dilations of certain wavelets can be used to form sets of ‘basic’ functions for expanding general functions into infinite series, and these expansions have many theoretical and practical applications. |
