Abstract
Wavelets and related multiscale representations are important means for edge detection and processing as well as for segmentation and registration. Due to the computational complexity of these approaches no interactive visualization of the extraction process is possible nowadays. By using the hardware of modern graphics Workstations for accelerating wavelet decomposition and reconstruction we realize a first important step for removing lags in the visualization cycle.
