Abstract

We present a method for signal reconstruction based upon the location of its singularities which are identified by a wavelet transform technique. The reconstructed signal is an infconvolution spline approximant. The data for the interpolation problem which we solve comes from a compact signal coding procedure. Error bounds and convergence results for the calculated signal are given.
