In order to avoid these difficulties, we present a fitting based on radial basis functions satisfying side conditions by least squares, although compared with interpolation the method loses some accuracy, it reduces the computational cost largely. Since the fitting accuracy and the non-singularity of coefficient matrix in normal equation are relevant to the uniformity of chosen centers of the fitted RBE we present a choice method of uniform centers. Numerical results confirm the fitting efficiency.展开更多

The proposed prediction methods estimate high-frequency wavelet coefficients of the original image based on the available low-frequency wavelet coefficients, so that the original image can be reconstructed by using the proposed prediction method. To further improve the reconstruction performance, we use polynomial curve fitting to build relationships between actual high-frequency wavelet coefficients and estimated high-frequency wavelet coefficients. Results of the proposed prediction algorithm for different wavelet transforms are compared to show the proposed prediction algorithm outperforms other methods.展开更多
