Wavelet Analysis
Mathematica 8 introduces a complete integrated wavelet analysis system, including a large collection of wavelet families and multiple variants of discrete wavelet transforms, as well as continuous wavelet transforms. Wavelet transforms are easy to use, with each transform producing a symbolic transform representation that makes it easy to access, manipulate, and visualize the tree of transform coefficients. Mathematica's new wavelet functionality also allows direct work on multidimensional data, sounds, and images without any conversion.
