Wavelet Analysis: Event De-noising, Shower Evolution and Jet Substructure Without Jets

Monk, J. W.

Understand

Wavelet decomposition is a method that has been applied to signal processing in a wide range of subjects.

  • The decomposition isolates small scale features of a signal from large scale features, while also maintaining information about where in the signal those features occur.
  • Wavelets obey particular scaling relations and are especially suited to the analysis of systems that are self-similar and scale invariant.
  • They are therefore a natural tool for the study of hadron collisions.
