Abstract :
Early on, computer vision researchers have realized that multiscale transforms are important to analyze the information content of images. The wavelet theory gives a stable mathematical foundation to understand the properties of such multiscale algorithms. This tutorial describes major applications to multiresolution search, multiscale edge detection, and texture discrimination
