A multiresolution wavelet networks architecture and its application to pattern recognition

详细

This paper aims at addressing a challenging research in both fields of the wavelet neural network theory and the pattern recognition. A novel architecture of the wavelet network based on the multiresolution analysis (MRWN) and a novel learning algorithm founded on the Fast Wavelet Transform (FWTLA) are proposed. FWTLA has numerous positive sides compared to the already existing algorithms. By exploiting this algorithm to learn the MRWN, we suggest a pattern recognition system (FWNPR). We show firstly its classification efficiency on many known benchmarks and then in many applications in the field of the pattern recognition. Extensive empirical experiments are performed to compare the proposed methods with other approaches.
