A complete, concise and clear exposition of the more traditional tools related to linear filtering.
Since their emergence in the last eighties and early nineties of the twentieth century, wavelets and other multi-scale transforms have become powerful signal and image processing tools. Najmi's book provides physicists and engineers with a clear and concise introduction to this fascinating field.
