Abstract

In this article, we develop a general theoretical framework for constructing Haar-type tight framelets on any compact set with a hierarchical partition. In particular, we construct a novel area-regular hierarchical partition on the two spheres and establish its corresponding spherical Haar tight framelets with directionality. We conclude by evaluating and illustrate the effectiveness of our area-regular spherical Haar tight framelets in several denoising experiments. Furthermore, we propose a convolutional neural network (CNN) model for spherical signal denoising, which employs fast framelet decomposition and reconstruction algorithms. Experiment results show that our proposed CNN model outperforms threshold methods and processes strong generalization and robustness. © 2022 IEEE.
