Abstract

In this work we study the relation between the Gabor-Morlet wavelet transform and scale-space theory. It is shown that the usual wavelet transform is a projection of scale-space on a specific frequency component. This result is then generalized to the full two-dimensional affine group. A close relation between this generalized wavelet transform and a family of scale-spaces of images that are related by SL(2) is established. Using frame theory we show that sampling from different images in this family, and from different scales enables a complete reconstruction of the image.
