Abstract
As other spheres of image analysis, fractography has no universal method for information convolution. An effective characteristic of an image is found by analyzing the essence and origin of every class of objects. As follows from the geometric definition of a fractal curve, its projection onto any straight line covers a certain segment many times; therefore, neither a time series (one-valued function of time) nor an image (one-valued function of plane) can be a fractal. For applications, multidimensional multiscale characteristics of an image are necessary. “Full” wavelet series break the law of conservation of information.
