Abstract

Biorthogonal wavelets are applied to parse multiaspect transient scattering data in the context of signal classification. A language-based genetic algorithm is used to design wavelet filters that enhance classification performance. The biorthogonal wavelets are implemented via the lifting procedure and the optimization is carried out using a classification-based cost function. Example results are presented for target classification using measured scattering data.
