The mwd function produces a multiple wavelet decomposition object .
The need for this function is a consequence of the pyramidal structure of
Mallats algorithm and the memory efficiency gain achieved by storing
the pyramid as a linear matrix.
AccessD obtains information about where the coefficients appear from the
fl.dbase component of mwd,
in particular the array fl.dbase$first.last.d which gives a complete
specification of index numbers and offsets for mwd$D.
Note that this function and accessC only work on objects of class mwd to extract coefficients. You have to use
putD.mwd to insert wavelet coefficients into a mwd object.
