Can anyone give a capsule summary of what "wavelet transforms" are
all about? I've read the Scientific American and Radio Electronics
blurbs on the subject, and it sounds intriguing, but I have yet to
see any explanation of exactly what it *really* is.

I have the bibliography on the subject recently posted to sci.math,
but still no summary of what wavelet transforms are. One bibliographical
item suggests a connection to/identity with Gabor Transforms. Is that
true?

(If I missed a discussion/explanation of the subject in this group,
could someone forward it to me?)
	Thanks,
		Doug
