Competences |
- Analytical Competency: Extract and interpret time-frequency information from signals (e.g., for pattern recognition or noise reduction).
- Modeling Competency: Select and justify appropriate transformation methods (Fourier vs. wavelet) for specific applications.
- Technical Competency: Implement and optimize algorithms for signal and image compression.
- Critical Evaluation: Assess the advantages and limitations of wavelet transforms compared to other methods (e.g., Fourier).
- Problem-Solving Competency: Solve real-world problems (e.g., in image processing or data analysis) using wavelet-based methods.

Skills |
Knowledge |
- Perform transformations: Apply Fourier, windowed Fourier, and wavelet transforms to a given function or sequence.
- Decomposition and reconstruction: Decompose a function with respect to a frame or orthogonal wavelet basis.
- Reconstruct the original function from transformation coefficients.
- Compression applications: Compress signal and image data using the discrete wavelet transform. Adjust compression parameters (e.g., quantization steps) and analyze their effects.
