TL;DR
Two applications in image processing: enhancement and restoration are discussed; the efficiency of this multiscalerepresentation relies on the information encoded in the phase of thecomplex wavelet coefficients.
Abstract
Analyses based on Symmetric Daubechies Wavelets (SDW) lead tocomplex-valued multiresolution representations of real signals.After a recall of the construction of the SDW, we present somespecific properties of these new types of Daubechies wavelets. Wethen discuss two applications in image processing: enhancement andrestoration. In both cases, the efficiency of this multiscalerepresentation relies on the information encoded in the phase of thecomplex wavelet coefficients.

Evidence is presented that the 2D receptive-field profiles of simple cells in mammalian visual cortex are well described by members of this optimal 2D filter family, and thus such visual neurons could be said to optimize the general uncertainty relations for joint 2D-spatial-2D-spectral information resolution.
