the long version

The contributors to Subband and Wavelet Transforms: Design and Applications are distinguished scholars, drawn from prominent research laboratories and universities around the world. The first six chapters of the book are devoted to theory and design, each having a unique focus and perspective. The remaining seven chapters use the foundation built in the first part to address specific applications. Some of these application areas are quite mature, while others are just emerging. An extensive bibliography is provided at the end of the book, which is used as a reference list for all chapters. This will help the interested readers to expand their study of this material. Subband and Wavelet Transforms: Design and Applications is an in-depth reference volume, treating the fundamentals and discussing emerging applications in which filter banks and wavelets are believed to be important. Audience: Intended for a broad readership, the book will be of particular interest to practicing engineers and scientists who wish to learn about utilization of these new developments, instructors teaching senior and graduate level engineering and applied mathematics courses in the field, and management personnel wishing to keep up with this rapidly developing technology.
