What is 2D discrete wavelet transform?
The 2D Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is an important function in many multimedia applications, such as JPEG2000 and MPEG-4 standards, digital watermarking, and content-based multimedia information retrieval systems. The 2D DWT is computationally intensive than other functions, for instance, in the JPEG2000 standard.
How to apply DWT on image in Matlab?
Single-Level 2-D Discrete Wavelet Transform of an Image
Obtain the single-level 2-D discrete wavelet transform of the image using the order 4 symlet and periodic extension. [cA,cH,cV,cD] = dwt2(X,'sym4','mode','per'); Display the vertical detail coefficients and the approximation coefficients.
Why discrete wavelet transform is used in image processing?
The DWT decomposes a digital signal into different subbands so that the lower frequency subbands have finer frequency resolution and coarser time resolution compared to the higher frequency subbands. DWT is the basis of the new JPEG2000 image compression standard.
What is wavelet decomposition in image processing?
Wavelet decompositions are more recent addition to the arsenal of multiscale signal processing techniques. Unlike the Gaussian and Laplacian pyramids, they provide a complete image representation and perform decomposition according to both scale and orientation.
