Continuous wavelet transform

Continuous wavelet transform

In mathematics, the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is a formal (i.e., non-numerical) tool that provides an overcomplete representation of a signal by letting the translation and scale parameter of the wavelets vary continuously.

What is the difference between continuous and discrete wavelet transform?

To summarize: The CWT and the discrete wavelet transforms differ in how they discretize the scale parameter. The CWT typically uses exponential scales with a base smaller than 2, for example 21/12 . The discrete wavelet transform always uses exponential scales with the base equal to 2.

How do you do a continuous wavelet transform in Matlab?

wt = cwt( x , wname ) uses the analytic wavelet specified by wname to compute the CWT. [ wt , f ] = cwt(___, fs ) specifies the sampling frequency, fs , in hertz, and returns the scale-to-frequency conversions f in hertz. If you do not specify a sampling frequency, cwt returns f in cycles per sample.

What is wavelet transform and its types?

Wavelet transforms can be classified into two broad classes: the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The continuous wavelet transform is a time-frequency transform, which is ideal for analysis of non-stationary signals.

What is wavelet transform in EEG?

Wavelet transform uses the variable size of windows with a wavelet function. Wavelet analysis is usually applied in two ways, Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). CWT uses a wavelet function ψ(t) and produces a scalogram, similar to a spectrogram for time-frequency analysis.
