Abstract

Wavelet transform method is developed independently in the fields of mathematics, quantum physics, electrical engineering, and seismic geology from a several decades. The wavelets are mathematical functions that cut up data into different frequency components, and then study each component with a resolution matched to its scale. This method is more useful than traditional Fourier methods, when the signal contains discontinuities and sharp spikes. Interactions between different scientific fields have led to many new wavelet applications such as image compression, turbulence, human vision, radar, and earthquake prediction. This paper is dedicated to possibility of using the wavelet transform in some optical research method i.e. interference images analysis. Special attention is paid to noise detection in these images.
