Wavelets and Filter Banks
This book explains wavelets to both engineers and mathematicians. It approaches the subject with a major emphasis on the filter structures attached to wavelets. Those filters are the key to algorithmic efficiency and they are well developed throughout signal processing. Now they make possible major achievements in data analysis and compression. The explanations of difficult topics are direct, rigorous and very approachable. Many practical applications are discussed. The book is ideal as an introduction to the principles of wavelets and as a reference for the analysis and applications. Also included in Wavelets and Filter Banks are many examples to make effective use of the MATLAB Wavelet Toolbox.

good book for a wavelet beginner
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The book start from very basic concept, and then step by step lead you to wavelet, and end at applications. You need only undergraduate level DSP knowledge to learn this.
Great Text/Reference

I have taken several courses on DSP. I found that this text takes topics that were presented, expanded them in great detail. It took some of the mystery out of my previous presentations. Anyone working with DSP should have this on their shelf!
Engineers need math, but on their terms.

At many US universities, math departments offer service courses in math for the engineers, and there is a periodic discussion of the curriculum. One difficulty is that the two sides speak different languages;-- in math, it is linear algebra, calculus...,- and in engineering, signals, high-pass/low-pass filters, downsampling/upsampling, filter bank, polyphase matrix...A wonderful feature of the Strang-Nguyen book is that it speaks both languages. In this way it is refreshing, and it stands outin a class of its own. It has been tested in courses for engineers, and stood the test. From what I hear, it is equally popular in the two cultures, math and engineering.

I am presently full time staff and part-time teacher electronics lab and doing research in image processing. I need a new way or new material so as to use wavelets for my research project. It is one of the most readable texts that I have encountered. I was looking for a very applied book and this seems a good one. There is one thing that I found disappointing. I found that in order to understand some things I had to jump to sections further into the book. Ideas are introduced and are not fully explained until later in the book. This leaves the reader puzzled and sometimes very confused when given the first exposure to a topic. I think the development of ideas could have been more cohesive. All in all, it's not a bad book as a reference
a very good book in wavelets

This is a very good book in wavelets. It's included theory of wavelets and its application.
