Build Wavelet Tree Objects

The following sections explain how to extend the toolbox with new objects through four examples.

Building a Wavelet Tree Object (WTREE)

This example creates a new class of objects: WTREE.

Starting from the class DTREE and overloading the methods split and merge, we define a wavelet tree class.

To plot a WTREE, the DTREE plot method is used.

The definition of the new class is described below.

Class WTREE (parent class: DTREE)

Fields

dtree

Parent object

dwtMode

DWT extension mode

wavInfo

Structure (wavelet information)

wavInfo Structure information

wavName

Wavelet Name

Lo_D

Low Decomposition filter

Hi_D

High Decomposition filter

Lo_R

Low Reconstruction filter

Hi_R

High Reconstruction filter

Methods

wtree

Constructor for the class WTREE.

merge

Merge (recompose) the data of a node.

split

Split (decompose) the data of a terminal node.

Working With Wavelet Tree Objects (WTREE)

1-D Object

Load a signal.

load noisbloc
x = noisbloc;

Define the level and the wavelet.

lev = 3;
wav = 'db2';

Create the wavelet tree.

t = wtree(x,lev,wav);

Plot the wavelet tree. The approximations are labeled in yellow and the details are labeled in red. The detail nodes cannot be split.

plot(t)

Change Node Label from Visualize to Split-Merge, and then click node (7), to get this figure:

plot1.png

Change Node Action from Visualize to Split-Merge, and merge node (3). Then change Node Action from Split-Merge to Visualize, and click node (3) to get this figure:

plot2.png

2-D Object

Load an image.

load woman

Define the level and the wavelet.

lev = 2;
wav = 'db2';

Create the wavelet tree.

t = wtree(X,lev,wav);

Plot the tree.

plot(t)

Change Node Label from Depth_Position to Index. Click the node (5). You get the following plot.

plot3.png

Click the node (2). You obtain the following plot.

plot4.png

Change Node Action from Visualize to Split-Merge. Split the node (5). Change Node Action from Split-Merge to Visualize. Click the node (21). You obtain the following plot.

Building a Right Wavelet Tree Object (RWVTREE)

This example creates a new class of objects: RWVTREE.

We define a right wavelet tree class starting from the class WTREE and overloading the methods split, merge, and plot (inherited from DTREE).

The plot method shows how to add Node Labels.

The definition of the new class is described below.

Change Node Action from Visualize to Split-Merge. Merge the node (6). Change Node Action from Split-Merge to Visualize. Click the node (6). You obtain the following plot.
