Wei, H.L. and Billings, S.A. (2005) Singularity and similarity detection for signals using the wavelet transform. Research Report. ACSE Research Report no. 899 . Automatic Control and Systems Engineering, University of Sheffield
Abstract
The wavelet transform and related techniques are used to analyze singular and fractal signals. The normalized wavelet scalogram is introduced to detect singularities including jumps, cusps and other sharply changing points. The wavelet auto-covariance is applied to estimate the self-similarity exponent for statistical self-affine signals.
