Tsunami: Multiresolution Resource Queries and Other Applications of Wavelets to Resource Signals

Time-domain resource signals, such as those made available by RPS or Remos, contain information that is easier to extract in frequency-domain or wavelet-domain. The goal of this project is to determine the benefits to using a wavelet-domain representation of resource signals in measurement, dissemination, and prediction. We are building an extension to RPS to make wavelet technology readily available to researchers in resource prediction.
