Fast redundant dyadic wavelet transform in application to spatial registration of the expression patterns of Drosophila segmentation genes

Abstract

A 1D wavelet-based registration technique was applied to Drosophila segmentation gene expression data. We apply the fast redundant dyadic wavelet transform with a continuous basis as a method for extracting the ground control points. This transform was chosen for its basic properties, such as noise reduction and good localization of characteristic features.
