Description
Recently there have been many developments and new applications of mathematical techniques for describing complex algebraic functions and analysing empirical continuous data derived from many different types of signal, for example turbulent flowa, oil well logs, electrical signals from the eyeetc. Probably the most important and rapidly developing of these techniques involve Fourier methods, fractals and wavelets. This international conference on these developments provides a useful introduction to the mathematics of wavelets, fractals, and Fourier Transforms, and to their manyapplications. Readers will appreciate that the different methods of analysis expose very different aspects of complex signals and surfaces and that the most suitable method often depends on the application under consideration.
