What is inverse wavelet transform?
The icwt function implements the inverse CWT. Using icwt requires that you obtain the CWT from cwt . Because the CWT is a redundant transform, there is not a unique way to define the inverse.
How does a continuous wavelet transform work?
Like the Fourier transform, the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) uses inner products to measure the similarity between a signal and an analyzing function. In the Fourier transform, the analyzing functions are complex exponentials, e j ω t . The resulting transform is a function of a single variable, ω.
What is the difference between continuous wavelet transform and discrete wavelet transform?
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.
What is the disadvantage of wavelet transform?
Although the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is a powerful tool for signal and image processing, it has three serious disadvantages: shift sensitivity, poor directionality, and lack of phase information.
