This work introduces a novel biorthogonal tunable wavelet unit constructed using a lifting scheme that relaxes both the orthogonality and equal filter length constraints, providing greater flexibility in filter design. The proposed unit enhances convolution, pooling, and downsampling operations, leading to improved image classification and anomaly detection in convolutional neural networks (CNN). When integrated into an 18-layer residual neural network (ResNet-18), the approach improved classification accuracy on CIFAR-10 by 2.12% and on the Describable Textures Dataset (DTD) by 9.73%, demonstrating its effectiveness in capturing fine-grained details. Similar improvements were observed in ResNet-34. For anomaly detection in the hazelnut category of the MVTec Anomaly Detection dataset, the proposed method achieved competitive and wellbalanced performance in both segmentation and detection tasks, outperforming existing approaches in terms of accuracy and robustness.

This work introduces a stop-band energy constraint for filters in orthogonal tunable wavelet units with a lattice structure, aimed at improving image classification and anomaly detection in CNNs, especially on texture-rich datasets. Integrated into ResNet-18, the method enhances convolution, pooling, and downsampling operations, yielding accuracy gains of 2.48% on CIFAR-10 and 13.56% on the Describable Textures dataset. Similar improvements are observed in ResNet-34. On the MVTec hazelnut anomaly detection task, the proposed method achieves competitive results in both segmentation and detection, outperforming existing approaches.
