Abstract

To achieve effective signal signature extraction, Chap. 10 introduced several quantitative measures for selecting appropriate base wavelets from a pool of available wavelet families, such as Daubechies, Myer, and Morlet wavelets. This chapter introduces a complimentary technique focusing on wavelet customization. The goal is to design a wavelet that is specifically adapted to the signal of interest. Because such a customized wavelet would have a higher degree of matching with the signal than other wavelets, the effectiveness of signature extraction will improve.
