Polyharmonic Daubechies type wavelets in Image Processing and Astronomy, IIOgnyan Kounchev, Damyan Kalaglarsky, Milcho Tsvetkov
We consider the application of the polyharmonic subdivision wavelets (of Daubechies type) to Image Processing, in particular to Astronomical Images. The results show an essential advantage over some standard multivariate wavelets and a potential for better compression.

Quantization Opportunities for Polyharmonic Subdivision Wavelets Applied to Astronomical ImagesOgnyan Kounchev, Damyan Kalaglarsky
We continue the study of a new family of multivariate wavelets which are obtained by "polyharmonic subdivision". We provide the results of experiments considering the distribution of the wavelet coefficients for the Lena image and for astronomical images. The main purpose of this investigation is to find a clue for proper quantization algorithms.

Compressive Sensing for Polyharmonic Subdivision Wavelets With Applications to Image AnalysisOgnyan Kounchev, Damyan Kalaglarsky
We apply successfully the Compressive Sensing approach for Image Analysis using the new family of Polyharmonic Subdivision wavelets. We show that this approach provides a very efficient recovery of the images based on fewer samples than the traditional Shannon-Nyquist paradigm. We provide the results of experiments with PHSD wavelets and Daubechies wavelets, for the Lena image and astronomical images.
