Introduction to Wavelets
Taking Fourier's torch forward...
Background: Why Wavelets?
- I can bet a great deal of money, that as Electrical Engineers, the first name that comes to mind when someone says "SIGNAL PROCESSING" is Fourier.
- Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier (1768 - 1830) laid a rock-solid foundation for signal analysis, when he claimed that all (continuously differentiable) signals can be represented as the sums of sines and cosines.
- It is hard to imagine the iPod generation without the work this great man did over 2 centuries ago.
