Multivariate Wavelet Frames
This book presents a systematic study of multivariate wavelet frames with matrix dilation, in particular, orthogonal and bi-orthogonal bases, which are a special case of frames. Further, it provides algorithmic methods for the construction of dual and tight wavelet frames with a desirable approximation order, namely compactly supported wavelet frames, which are commonly required by engineers. I…

Stem Cell Aging: Mechanisms, Consequences, Rejuvenation
In societies all around the globe, the population is aging. This fact will pose important challenges to healthcare and social systems in industrialized and emerging economies alike. It is therefore critical to devise strategies to extend the healthy years of life and thus limit the exponential increase in healthcare cost associated with growing old and frail. Understanding the aging process …
