Wavelet transform is an invaluable tool in signal processing, which has applications in a variety of fields - from hydrodynamics to neuroscience. This revolutionary method allows us to uncover structures, which are present in the signal but are hidden behind the noise. The key feature of wavelet transform is that it performs function decomposition in both time and frequency domains. In this video we will see how to build a wavelet toolkit step by step and discuss important implications and prerequisites along the way. This is my entry for Summer of Math Exposition 2022 ( #SoME2 ). My name is Artem, I'm a computational neuroscience student and researcher at Moscow State University.
