The theorems, giving the condition of perfect translation invariance for discrete wavelet transforms, have already been proven. Based on these theorems, the dual-tree complex discrete wavelet transform, the 2-dimensional discrete wavelet transform, the complex wavelet packet transform, the variable-density complex discrete wavelet transform and the real-valued discrete wavelet transform, having perfect translation invariance, were proposed. However, their customizability of wavelets in the frequency domain is limited. In this paper, also based on these theorems, a new type of complex discrete wavelet transform is proposed, which achieves perfect translation invariance with high degree of customizability of wavelets in the frequency domain.

The theorems giving the conditions for discrete wavelet transforms (DWTs) to achieve perfect translation invariance (PTI) have already been proven, and based on these theorems, the dual-tree complex DWT and the complex wavelet packet transform, achieving PTI, have already been proposed. However, there is not so much flexibility in their wavelet density. In the frequency domain, the wavelet density is fixed by octave filter banks, and in the time domain, each wavelet is arrayed on a fixed coordinate, and the wavelet packet density in the frequency domain can be only designed by dividing an octave frequency band equally in linear scale, and its density in the time domain is constrained by the division number of an octave frequency band. In this paper, a novel complex DWT is proposed to create variable wavelet density in the frequency and time domains, that is, an octave frequency band can be divided into N filter banks in logarithmic scale, where N is an integer larger than or equal to 3, and in the time domain, a distance between wavelets can be varied in each level, and its transform achieves PTI.

The human pulse-condition diagnosis is an important part of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) which is difficult to recognize accurately by doctor’s subjective experience. Objective identification of pulse-conditions has important meanings for modernization of TCM. In this paper human pulse-condition system transfer function model and model parameter estimation were introduced, which are used to construct four kinds of typical pulse-conditions simulation signals. There are normal pulse, taut pulse, slippery pulse and thready pulse. And then, discrete wavelet transform for extracting the multi-scale energy characteristics and wavelet packet decomposition for extracting the multi-band energy characteristics are proposed so as to recognize the pulse-conditions simulation signals. The results show that the recognition effect of discrete wavelet transform method is better. Moreover, the data features of characteristic parameters demonstrate the reality of simulation signals.

Compressed sensing (CS) has been applied to accelerate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for many years. Due to the lack of translation invariance of the wavelet basis, undersampled MRI reconstruction based on discrete wavelet transform may result in serious artifacts. In this paper, we propose a CS-based reconstruction scheme, which combines complex double-density dual-tree discrete wavelet transform (CDDDT-DWT) with fast iterative shrinkage/soft thresholding algorithm (FISTA) to efficiently reduce such visual artifacts. The CDDDT-DWT has the characteristics of shift invariance, high degree, and a good directional selectivity. In addition, FISTA has an excellent convergence rate, and the design of FISTA is simple. Compared with conventional CS-based reconstruction methods, the experimental results demonstrate that this novel approach achieves higher peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), larger signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), better structural similarity index (SSIM), and lower relative error.

Discrete wavelet transform and discrete periodic wavelet transform have been widely used in image compression and data approximation. Due to discontinuity on the boundary of original data, the decay rate of the obtained wavelet coefficients is slow. In this study, we use the combination of polynomial interpolation and one-dimensional/two-dimensional discrete periodic wavelet transforms to mitigate boundary effects. The decay rate of the obtained wavelet coefficients in our improved algorithm is faster than that of traditional two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform. Moreover, our improved algorithm can be extended naturally to the higher-dimensional case.


Using SWT (Stationary Wavelet Change) & SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transformation) we attempted to increase the number of features recognized & matched with digital image for forgery identification. Digital image received preferable match for forged area. We collected the forgery area using SIFT& SURF for identification of forgery. We used DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform) w.r.t. SIFT & SW to subdue absence of translation invariance..
