AbstractWavelet is a mathematical tool thatcan be used to analyze data from many different kinds including but not limited to audio signals and images. Wavelet is usually used for compressing/decompressing a signal with minimal loss. Even if the story of wavelet is quit young, we can already use a strong theory in many applications. The goal of this paper is to present the global ideas behind Fourier and wavelets analysis, along with some of their applications. As soon as the theory behind wavelets is known we will compare two algorithms: we will comparethe Douglas-Peucker algorithm with wavelets in the process of curve simplification.
