Abstract
We present a new family of 2D orthogonal wavelets which use quincunx sampling. The orthogonal refinement filters have a simple analytical expression in the Fourier domain as a function of the order /spl alpha/, which may be non-integer. The wavelets have good isotropy properties. We can also prove that they yield wavelet bases of L/sub 2/(R/sup 2/) for any /spl alpha/>0. The wavelets are fractional in the sense that the approximation error at a given scale /spl alpha/ decays like O(a/sup /spl alpha//); they also essentially behave like fractional derivative operators. To make our construction practical, we propose an FFT-based implementation that turns out to be surprisingly fast. In fact, our method is almost as efficient as the standard Mallat algorithm for separable wavelets.
