Short Notes on Wavelets

Integer Haar Wavelets, Python implementation

This is a trivial implementation of Haar integer-to-integer wavelets.

The d array (list or numpy.array) has to be power of 2.

Note that resulting values typically use 1 more bit than original ones - if source values are in [0..N) interval, then resulting values are in (-N, N) interval.

Using Lists

def haar_int_fwd_1d(d):
    if len(d) == 1:
        return d
    even = d[::2]
    odd = d[1::2]
    hp = [j - i for i, j in zip(even, odd)]
    lp = [i + (w >> 1) + (w % 2) for i, w in zip(even, hp)]
    return haar_int_fwd_1d(lp) + hp
    
def haar_int_inv_1d(d):
    if len(d) == 1:
        return d
    even = haar_int_inv_1d(d[:len(d) >> 1])
    odd = d[len(d) >> 1:]
    lp = [i - (j >> 1) - (j % 2) for i, j in zip(even, odd)]
    hp = [i + j for i, j in zip(lp, odd)]
    return [x for t in zip(lp, hp) for x in t]

Using numpy array's

import numpy as np

def haar_int_fwd_1d_np(d):
    if len(d) == 1:
        return d
    hp = d[1::2] - d[::2]
    lp = d[::2] + (hp >> 1) + (hp % 2)
    return np.concatenate((haar_int_fwd_1d_np(lp), hp))

def haar_int_inv_1d_np(d):
    if len(d) == 1:
        return d
    lp = haar_int_inv_1d_np(d[:len(d) >> 1]) 
    hp = d[len(d) >> 1:] 
    even = lp - (hp >> 1) - (hp % 2)
    return np.ravel(np.column_stack((even, even + hp)))
