wavethresh (version 4.7.3)

GetRSSWST: Computes estimate of error for function estimate.

Description

Computes estimate of error for function estimate. Given noisy data and a threshold value this function uses Nason's 1996 two-fold cross-validation algorithm, but using packet ordered non-decimated wavelet transforms to compute two estimates of an underlying ``true'' function and uses them to compute an estimate of the error in estimating the truth.

Usage

GetRSSWST(ndata, threshold, levels, family = "DaubLeAsymm", 
	filter.number = 10, type = "soft", norm = l2norm, verbose = 0, 
	InverseType = "average")

Value

A real number which is estimate of the error between estimate and truth at the given threshold.

Arguments

ndata

the noisy data. This is a vector containing the signal plus noise. The length of this vector should be a power of two.

threshold

the value of the threshold that you wish to compute the error of the estimate at

levels

the levels over which you wish the threshold value to be computed (the threshold that is used in computing the estimate and error in the estimate). See the explanation for this argument in the threshold.wst function.

family

specifies the family of wavelets that you want to use. The options are "DaubExPhase" and "DaubLeAsymm".

filter.number

This selects the smoothness of wavelet that you want to use in the decomposition. By default this is 10, the Daubechies least-asymmetric orthonormal compactly supported wavelet with 10 vanishing moments.

type

whether to use hard or soft thresholding. See the explanation for this argument in the threshold.wst function.

norm

which measure of distance to judge the dissimilarity between the estimates. The functions l2norm and linfnorm are suitable examples.

verbose

If TRUE then informative messages are printed during the progression of the function, otherwise they are not.

InverseType

The possible options are "average" or "minent". The former uses basis averaging to form estimates of the unknown function. The "minent" function selects a basis using the Coifman and Wickerhauser, 1992 algorithm to select a basis to invert.

Details

This function implements the component of the cross-validation method detailed by Nason, 1996 for computing an estimate of the error between an estimate and the ``truth''. The difference here is that it uses the packet ordered non-decimated wavelet transform rather than the standard Mallat wd discrete wavelet transform. As such it is an examples of the translation-invariant denoising of Coifman and Donoho, 1995 but uses cross-validation to choose the threshold rather than SUREshrink.

Note that the procedure outlined above can use AvBasis basis averaging or basis selection and inversion using the Coifman and Wickerhauser, 1992 best-basis algorithm
