Remarks
For Beginners: Wavelets are mathematical functions that cut up data into different frequency components.
Think of wavelets like special lenses that let you look at your data in different ways:
- They can zoom in to see fine details (high frequencies)
- They can zoom out to see the big picture (low frequencies)
Biorthogonal wavelets (Bior) are a special family of wavelets that have useful properties for signal processing. The "Reverse" prefix indicates these are the reconstruction filters.
The numbers in each wavelet name (like "11" in ReverseBior11) represent:
- First number: Decomposition filter length
- Second number: Reconstruction filter length
Different wavelets are better suited for different types of data and applications.
