Abstract
In this paper the definition of a multiwedgelet is introduced. The multiwedgelet is defined as a vector of wedgelets. In order to use a multiwedgelet in image approximation its visualization and computation methods are also proposed. The application of multiwedgelets in image denoising is presented, as well. As follows from the experiments performed multiwedgelets assure better denoising results than the other known state-of-the-art methods.
