What is Research Telling Us about Wavelet-Based Applications in this 21st Century?

Thanks to the explosive growth of wavelet-based applications in this 21st Century to various areas that affect our lives, multidimensional (MD) signals—such as images, videos, multispectral and forensic images, light fields, and biomedical data volumes—have become ubiquitous. This talk will review some of the most recent advances in wavelet-based applications that affect our daily lives. We will first review critical concepts about wavelets in the processing of these various signals with wavelet transforms and multiscale analysis, including time-frequency tiling, over complete representations, higher dimensional bases, symmetry, boundary effects, translational invariance, orientation selectivity, and best-basis selection.
With applications ranging from pure mathematics to virtually every engineering field, from medicine to aerospace, astrology to economics, and oceanography to seismology, wavelet transforms are being applied to areas where no other transforms have ever been used. In an application overview, we will look at some of the most recent creative conventional and non-conventional applications of wavelets. On the conventional front, we will discuss such applications as multidimensional (MD) signals, compressive sensing (CS), power systems, atmospheric sciences, and other areas. On the unconventional front, we will look at various fields of applications, including biomedical engineering analysis in neurophysiology, nondestructive evaluation, fractals, and economics.
Finally, as wavelet transform has received significant attention in power, medical, and engineering communities in the last few years, we will look at new, noteworthy, and promising developments in wavelet-based power systems, cybersecurity, medical, and engineering applications as we conclude what appears to be one of the most remarkable success stories of power, medical, mathematical, and engineering sciences: the story of wavelets and their applications in many areas that affect our lives.
