Note: On The Degree Of Lp Approximation With Positive Linear Operators, J. J. Swetits, B. Wood Nov 1996

Note: On The Degree Of Lp Approximation With Positive Linear Operators, J. J. Swetits, B. Wood

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

The degree of approximation in Lp-spaces by positive linear operators is estimated in terms of the integral modulus of smoothness. It is shown that the conjectured optimal degree of approximation is not attained in the class of functions having a second derivative belonging to Lp.


Data Compression Based On The Cubic B-Spline Wavelet With Uniform Two-Scale Relation, S. K. Yang, C. H. Cooke Jan 1996

Data Compression Based On The Cubic B-Spline Wavelet With Uniform Two-Scale Relation, S. K. Yang, C. H. Cooke

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

The aim of this paper is to investigate the potential artificial compression which can be achieved using an interval multiresolution analysis based on a semiorthogonal cubic B-spline wavelet. The Chui-Quak [1] spline multiresolution analysis for the finite interval has been modified [2] so as to be characterized by natural spline projection and uniform two-scale relation. Strengths and weaknesses of the semiorthogonal wavelet as regards artificial compression and data smoothing by the method of thresholding wavelet coefficients are indicated.
