mlpy.wavelet - Wavelet Transform

Padding

mlpy.wavelet.pad(x, method='reflection')

Pad to bring the total length N up to the next-higher power of two.

Parameters :
x : 1d array_like object

data

method : string (‘reflection’, ‘periodic’, ‘zeros’)

method

Returns :
xp, orig : 1d numpy array, 1d numpy array bool

padded version of x and a boolean array with value True where xp contains the original data

Discrete Wavelet Transform

Discrete Wavelet Transform based on the GSL DWT [Gsldwt].

For the forward transform, the output is the discrete wavelet transform f_i \rightarrow w_{j,k} in a packed triangular storage layout, where j is the index of the level j = 0 \dots J-1 and k is the index of the coefficient within each level, k = 0 \dots (2^j)-1. The total number of levels is J = \log_2(n). The output data has the following form,

(s_{-1,0}, d_{0,0}, d_{1,0}, d_{1,1}, d_{2,0}, \dots, d_{j,k}, ..., d_{J-1,2^{J-1}-1})

where the first element is the smoothing coefficient s_{-1,0}, followed by the detail coefficients d_{j,k} for each level j. The backward transform inverts these coefficients to obtain the original data.

Undecimated Wavelet Transform

Undecimated Wavelet Transform (also known as stationary wavelet transform, redundant wavelet transform, translation invariant wavelet transform, shift invariant wavelet transform or Maximal overlap wavelet transform) based on the “wavelets” R package.

mlpy.wavelet.uwt(x, wf, k, levels=0)

Undecimated Wavelet Tranform

Parameters :
x : 1d array_like object (the length is restricted to powers of two)

data

wf : string (‘d’: daubechies, ‘h’: haar, ‘b’: bspline)

wavelet family

k : int

member of the wavelet family

  • bspline: k = 103, 105, 202, 204, 206, 208, 301, 303, 305 307, 309
levels : int

level of the decomposition (J). If levels = 0 this is the value J such that the length of X is at least as great as the length of the level J wavelet filter, but less than the length of the level J+1 wavelet filter. Thus, j <= log_2((n-1)/(l-1)+1), where n is the length of x
