A list of
wavelet related transforms:
*
Continuous wavelet transform (CWT)
*
Discrete wavelet transform
In numerical analysis and functional analysis, a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is any wavelet transform for which the wavelets are discretely sampled. As with other wavelet transforms, a key advantage it has over Fourier transforms is temporal ...
(DWT)
*
Multiresolution analysis (MRA)
*
Lifting scheme
The lifting scheme is a technique for both designing wavelets and performing the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). In an implementation, it is often worthwhile to merge these steps and design the wavelet filters ''while'' performing the wavelet tr ...

Binomial QMF (BQMF)
*
Fast wavelet transform
The fast wavelet transform is a mathematical algorithm designed to turn a waveform or signal in the time domain into a sequence of coefficients based on an orthogonal basis of small finite waves, or wavelets. The transform can be easily extended t ...
(FWT)
*
Complex wavelet transform The complex wavelet transform (CWT) is a complex-valued extension to the standard discrete wavelet transform (DWT). It is a two-dimensional wavelet transform which provides multiresolution, sparse representation, and useful characterization of the ...
* Non or
undecimated wavelet transform, the downsampling is omitted
*
Newland transform, an orthonormal basis of wavelets is formed from appropriately constructed top-hat filters in frequency space
*
Wavelet packet decomposition Originally known as optimal subband tree structuring (SB-TS), also called wavelet packet decomposition (WPD)
(sometimes known as just wavelet packets or subband tree), is a wavelet transform where the discrete-time (sampled) signal is passed through ...
(WPD), detail coefficients are decomposed and a variable tree can be formed
*
Stationary wavelet transform
The Stationary wavelet transform (SWT) is a wavelet transform algorithm designed to overcome the lack of translation-invariance of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Translation-invariance is achieved by removing the downsamplers and upsampler ...
(SWT), no downsampling and the filters at each level are different
*
e-decimated discrete wavelet transform, depends on if the even or odd coefficients are selected in the downsampling
*
Second generation wavelet transform {{Short description, Type of wavelet transform
In signal processing, the second-generation wavelet transform (SGWT) is a wavelet transform where the filters (or even the represented wavelets) are not designed explicitly, but the transform consists o ...
(SGWT), filters and wavelets are not created in the frequency domain
*
Dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTCWT), two trees are used for decomposion to produce the real and complex coefficients
WITS: Where Is The Starlet a collection of a hundredth of wavelet names in -let and associated multiscale, directional, geometric, representations, from activelets to x-lets through
bandelets,
chirplets,
contourlet
Contourlets form a multiresolution directional tight frame designed to efficiently approximate images made of smooth regions separated by smooth boundaries. The contourlet transform has a fast implementation based on a Laplacian pyramid decompositi ...
s,
curvelet
Curvelets are a non-adaptive technique for multi-scale object representation. Being an extension of the wavelet concept, they are becoming popular in similar fields, namely in image processing and scientific computing.
Wavelets generalize the Fou ...
s,
noiselet
Noiselets are functions which gives the worst case behavior for the Haar wavelet packet analysis. In other words, noiselets are totally incompressible by the Haar wavelet packet analysis.R. Coifman, F. Geshwind, and Y. Meyer, Noiselets, Applied and ...
