Parsimonious representation of signals based on scattering transform
Abstract
A parsimonious representation of signals is a mathematic model parametrized with a small number of parameters. Such models are useful for analysis, interpolation, filtering, feature extraction, and data compression. A new parsimonious model is presented in this paper based on scattering transforms. It is closely related to the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the linear Schrödinger equation. The efficiency of this method is illustrated in this paper with examples of both synthetic and real signals.
