Multiresolution analysis of images using pyramid data structures has b
ecome as an important tool in many areas of image processing. In this
work we introduce a Gaussian pyramid wavelet transform for multiresolu
tion analysis of images, We show that with a slight modification of th
e original Gaussian pyramid a decomposition algorithm is yielded, whic
h has Gaussian pyramid reduce and expand operations with a perfect rec
onstruction property, The method can be applied to multiresolution rep
resentation of 2D and 3D images and moving 2D objects for, e.g., image
coding and compression, progressive image transmission, and interpola
tion. (C) 1996 Academic Press, Inc.
