in a class of its own. It has been tested in courses for engineers, and stood the test. From what I hear, it is equally popular in the two cultures, math and engineering.


good book for a wavelet beginner   October 24, 2008

The book start from very basic concept, and then step by step lead you to wavelet, and end at applications.
You need only undergraduate level DSP knowledge to learn this.

I have taken several courses on DSP. I found that this text takes topics that were presented, expanded them in great detail. It took some of the mystery out of my previous presentations. Anyone working with DSP should have this on their shelf!

This is a very good book in wavelets. It's included theory of wavelets and its application.

I am presently full time staff and part-time teacher electronics lab and doing research in image processing. I need a new way or new material so as to use wavelets for my research project. It is one of the most readable texts that I have encountered. I was looking for a very applied book and this seems a good one. There is one thing that I found disappointing. I found that in order to understand some things I had to jump to sections further into the book. Ideas are introduced and are not fully explained until later in the book. This leaves the reader puzzled and sometimes very confused when given the first exposure to a topic. I think the development of ideas could have been more cohesive. All in all, it's not a bad book as a reference
