Synopsis

This book delves into the complex and fascinating world of signal representation using multiscale edges. The author, a respected expert in the field, masterfully combines mathematical theory with practical applications, making this book accessible to a wide audience. The text offers a comprehensive overview of the foundational concepts of multiscale edge representation, drawing connections to the broader history and evolution of signal processing and computer vision. The author presents innovative algorithms and techniques for reconstructing signals from their multiscale edges, providing valuable insights into the relationship between the local properties of signals and the evolution of their wavelet transform values across scales. The book's significance lies in its ability to characterize the local shape of signal variations, enabling the detection and classification of different types of edges. This approach has far-reaching implications for image processing and pattern recognition, opening up new avenues for solving complex problems in these fields. With its rigorous mathematical foundation and practical applications, this book is essential reading for researchers, engineers, and students seeking to advance their understanding of signal representation and analysis.
