Integral transformations on a finite interval with a singular basis wavelet are considered. Using a sequence of such transformations, the problem of nonparametric approximation of a function is solved. Traditionally, it is assumed that the validity condition must be met for a basic wavelet (the average value of the wavelet must be zero). The paper develops the previously proposed method of singular wavelets when the tolerance condition is not met. In this case Delta-shaped functions that participate in Parzen – Rosenblatt and Nadaray – Watson estimations can be used as a basic wavelet. The set of wavelet transformations for a function defined on a numeric axis, defined locally, and on a finite interval were previously investigated. However, the study of the convergence of the decomposition on a finite interval was carried out only in one particular case. It was due to technical difficulties when trying to solve this problem directly. In the paper the idea of evaluating the periodic continuation of a function defined initially on a finite interval is implemented. It allowed to formulate sufficient convergence conditions for the expansion of the function in a series. An example of approximation of a function defined on a finite interval using the sum of discrete wavelet transformations is given.

In this paper, we propose to use a discrete wavelet transform with a singular wavelet to isolate the periodic component from the signal. Traditionally, it is assumed that the validity condition must be met for a basic wavelet (the average value of the wavelet is zero). For singular wavelets, the validity condition is not met. As a singular wavelet, you can use the Delta-shaped functions, which are involved in the estimates of Parzen-Rosenblatt, Nadaraya-Watson. Using singular value of a wavelet is determined by the discrete wavelet transform. This transformation was studied earlier for the continuous case. Theoretical estimates of the convergence rate of the sum of wavelet transformations were obtained; various variants were proposed and a theoretical justification was given for the use of the singular wavelet method; sufficient conditions for uniform convergence of the sum of wavelet transformations were formulated. It is shown that the wavelet transform can be used to solve the problem of nonparametric approximation of the function. Singular wavelet decomposition is a new method and there are currently no examples of its application to solving applied problems. This paper analyzes the possibilities of the singular wavelet method. It is assumed that in some cases a slow and fast component can be distinguished from the signal, and this hypothesis is confirmed by the numerical solution of the real problem. A similar analysis is performed using a parametric regression equation, which allows you to select the periodic component of the signal. Comparison of the calculation results confirms that nonparametric approximation based on singular wavelets and the application of parametric regression can lead to similar results.

Статья посвящена синтезу алгоритма шумоподавления в видеоинформации, поступающей от бортовых съёмочных систем летательных аппаратов, основанному на технологии дискретных вейвлет-преобразований. Показано, что разработанный метод является развитием фильтрации Колмогорова-Винера, использующей для шумоподавления дискретное преобразование Фурье. The article is devoted to the synthesis of the noise reduction algorithm in the video information received from on-Board camera systems of aircrafts, based on the technology of discrete wavelet transformations. It is shown that the developed method is the extension of Kolmogorov-Wiener filtration using discrete Fourier transform for noise reduction.


Noise removal from recorded EEG signal is most essential for better analysis of brain disorders. During recoding time, EEG signals are usually contaminated by various noise and distortions due to several artifacts. These noisy EEG signals may lead to wrong diagnosis of brain disorders. There are several techniques available to remove the noise from EEG signals. But these techniques are unable to remove the noise completely. However, they can minimize the noise in EEG signals so that the physicians can predict brain disorders. This work presents to minimize the noise by Discrete Wavelet Transform Methods using haar, db2, symlet and coiflet wavelets. EEG original signals from public EEG database are used for experimentation and wavelet transformations, are applied by using Matlab code. The filters performance is measured and analyzed on the basis of performance parameters like SNR and MSE which are calculated for various step sizes of signal and filter orders. Wavelet analysis techniques shows better performance when compared to others
