  1. The Wavelet Tutorial:Part2 Dr. Charturong Tantibundhit

  2. Multiresolution Analysis (MRA) • MRA, as implied by its name, analyzes the signal at different frequencies with different resolutions. Every spectral component is not resolved equally as was the case in the STFT • MRA is designed to give good time resolution and poor frequency resolution at high frequencies and good frequency resolution and poor time resolution at low frequencies • This approach makes sense especially when the signal at hand has high frequency components for short durations and low frequency components for long durations

  3. Continuous Wavelet Transform • Developed as an alternative approach to the short time Fourier transform to overcome the resolution problem • Two main differences between the STFT and the CWT: • The Fourier transforms of the windowed signals are not taken, and therefore single peak will be seen corresponding to a sinusoid, i.e., negative frequencies are not computed. • The width of the window is changed as the transform is computed for every single spectral component, which is probably the most significant characteristic of the wavelet transform

  4. tau and s , the translation and scale parameters, respectively. • psi(t) is the transforming function, and it is called the mother wavelet

  5. Scale • The parameter scale in the wavelet analysis is similar to the scale used in maps. As in the case of maps, high scales correspond to a non-detailed global view (of the signal), and low scales correspond to a detailed view. • In terms of frequency, low frequencies (high scales) correspond to a global information of a signal (that usually spans the entire signal), whereas high frequencies (low scales) correspond to a detailed information of a hidden pattern in the signal (that usually lasts a relatively short time).

  6. Computation of CWT

  7. Let x(t) is the signal to be analyzed. The mother wavelet is chosen to serve as a prototype for all windows in the process. All the windows that are used are the dilated (or compressed) and shifted versions of the mother wavelet • Once the mother wavelet is chosen the computation starts with s=1 and the continuous wavelet transform is computed for all values of s, smaller and larger than “1”

  8. Example • These signals are drawn from a database signals that includes event related potentials of normal people, and patients with Alzheimer's disease A normal person

  9. An event related potential of a patient diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease
