wavethresh (version 4.7.3)

convert.wst: Convert a non-decimated wst object into a wd object.

Description

Convert a packed-ordered non-decimated wavelet transform object into a time-ordered non-decimated wavelet transform object.

Usage

# S3 method for wst
convert(wst, ...)

Value

An object of class wd containing exactly the same information as the input object but ordered differently as a packet-ordered object.

Arguments

wst

The wst class object that you wish to convert.

Details

In WaveThresh3 a non-decimated wavelet transform can be ordered in two different ways: as a time-ordered or packet-ordered representation. The coefficients in the two objects are exactly the same it is just their internal representation and ordering which is different. The two different representations are useful in different situations. The packet-ordering is useful for curve estimation applications and the time-ordering is useful for time series applications.

See Nason, Sapatinas and Sawczenko, 1998 for further details on ordering and weaving.

Note that the input object must be of the non-decimated type. In other words the type component of the input object must be "station". Once the input object has been converted the output can be used with any of the functions suitable for the wd.object.

The actual weaving permutation for shuffling coefficients from one representation to another is achieved by the getarrvec function.

Examples

#
# Generate a sequence of 32 random normals (say) and take their
# \code{packed-ordered non-decimated wavelet transform}
#
myrand <- wst(rnorm(32))
#
# Print out the result (to verify the class and type of the object)
#
#myrand
#Class 'wst' : Stationary Wavelet Transform Object:
#       ~~~  : List with 8 components with names
#              wp Carray nlevelsWT filter date 
#
#$WP and $Carray are the coefficient matrices

# Yep, the myrand object is of class: \code{\link{wst.object}}.
#
# Now let's convert it to class \code{\link{wd}}. The object
# gets returned and, as usual in S, is printed.
