[资源] 《A Primer on Wavelets and Their Scientific Applications, Second Edition》

A Primer on Wavelets and Their Scientific Applications, Second Edition (Studies in Advanced Mathematics)
By James S. Walker


Publisher: Chapman & Hall/CRC
Number Of Pages: 320
Publication Date: 2008-01-29
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1584887451
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781584887454
Binding: Paperback


An easily accessible introduction to wavelet analysis, this book explains the subject using algebra and some basic calculus and stresses applications, such as speech compression, removing noise from audio and images, image compression, and image enhancement. The author offers downloadable software that permits recording, playing, and modifying sound files using wavelet techniques, plus a facility for displaying, printing, and modifying standard IEEE gray field images. New sections include Biorthogonal Wavelets, The JPEG200 Image Compression Standard, Spectrograms, Analyzing Speech and Music with Spectrograms, Wavelet-Based Denoising of Images, and Thresholding Spectrograms for Denoising.




Summary: A Primer on Wavelets and Their Scientific Applications
Rating: 5

This book is an excellent one to learn the fundamental concepts of the wavelet transform. I recommend to study this book before starting or while studying another more mathematical text.



Summary: A little pedantic at times, but generally quite good....
Rating: 4

At times, particularly at the beginning, the author seems almost patronizing, but generally the tone and level of the book is just where it should be for what seeks to be a primer. However, it is unfortunate that one of the primary functions in the software is not more fully described in the text; it is only described as the method of preparing many of the examples.

Overall, an excellent start for somebody who knows little or nothing about wavelets.



Summary: Best introductory book on wavelets
Rating: 5

This is the best introductory level book on wavelets I have read. It is written beautifully and is one of the few books that provides insight as to how and why wavelets are useful.

Everyone should start out their investigation of wavelets with this book first. Highly recommended.



Summary: The ideas and the software.
Rating: 5

This lovely little book helps the novice to get an idea of the math which underlies wavelets;-- and at the same time to learn how one readily gets hold of software that is convinient,-- that will make it easy for anyone to start playing around with it. The author also explains in plain English the wavelet aspects, and some of the mathematical constructs, behind audio denoising, signal compression, image recognition, speech recognition and more.



Summary: Wavelets in 20 simple pages
Rating: 5

This is simply the best book I have come across on introducing wavelets.

I am sure that within the first 20 pages, which are easy to understand and make for a very quick read, you will begin to see the beauty of this theory and will applaud the author's exposition.

While this book does not need much more than basic linear algebra, the author does not shy away from the mathematics where necessary - he simply motivates it by providing an intuitive understanding of the equations, so it's easy to follow.

In the very first chapter, he describes the wavelet method using examples that can be worked out by hand. (This is also mentioned in another review and contributed to me buying this book. I was doing research on another wavelet book on the site when I came across this book and it's reviews.) This helps to fix and brilliantly clarify the main ideas behind the theory. Armed with this knowledge, the reader can better appreciate the more sophisticated wavelet functions. But, the basics would be firmly planted by this book. This is rarely seen in other books dealing with this thoery.

This book is great for someone who wants to learn about this topic. It also is an excellent book for those who have an advanced graduate degree in applied mathematics since it demonstrates how to truly understand complex concepts.

The discussion is motivated with real world examples such as removing noise from signals, image enhancements, etc. These are useful examples that you can relate to. There is enough in this book and the downloadable software that you may want to undertake meaningful projects yourself. That is the confidence that you get from this book.

An outstanding quality is that the book is thin. This is a strong motivating factor since it immediately sends the message that "this method can't be that hard to grasp if the book is so short." And, this subliminal message keeps your spirits up as you read this masterpiece.

Wavelets is a mathematically intensive technique, and it seems that most authors want to show how "macho" they are by shrouding the basics under a heavy cloak of complex equations. But, true "machoism" is displayed by how deftly an author can bring a difficult topic to the lay person. James Walker does this remarkably well.
