      Spherical wavelets: Efficiently representing functions on a sphere (English)
      0 references
      The authors introduce two families of biorthogonal wavelets on the sphere. One family is based on interpolating scaling functions and one on generalized Haar wavelets. These spherical wavelets can be derived from the trivial multiresolution analysis by the lifting scheme. The resulting wavelet algorithms are simple and efficient. Applications to compression of earth data sets, bi-directional reflectance distribution functions, and illumination computations show the importance of these spherical wavelets in computer graphics. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0948.00035].
