Pattern clustering based on noise modeling in wavelet space

摘要

We describe an effective approach to object or feature detection in point patterns via noise modeling. This is based on use of a redundant or non-pyramidal wavelet transform. Noise modeling is based on a Poisson process. We illustrate this new method with a range of examples. We use the close relationship between image (pixelated) and point representations to achieve the result of a clustering method with constant-time computational cost.
