Ingrid Daubechies Biography

Ingrid Daubechies is one of the most popular and richest Physicist who was born on August 17, 1954 in Houthalen-Helchteren, Flemish Region, Belgium.

Daubechies completed her undergraduate studies in physics at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel in 1975. During the next few years, she visited the CNRS Center for Theoretical Physics in Marseille several times, where she collaborated with Alex Grossmann; this work was the basis for her doctorate in quantum mechanics. She obtained her Ph.D. in theoretical physics in 1980 at Free University in Brussels.

Daubechies received the Louis Empain Prize for Physics in 1984, awarded once every five years to a Belgian scientist on the basis of work done before the age of 29. Between 1992 and 1997 she was a fellow of the MacArthur Foundation and in 1993 was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. In 1994 she received the American Mathematical Society Steele Prize for Exposition for her book Ten Lectures on Wavelets and was invited to give a plenary lecture at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Zurich. In 1997 she was awarded the AMS Ruth Lyttle Satter prize. In 1998, she was elected to the United States National Academy of Sciences and won the Golden Jubilee Award for Technological Innovation from the IEEE Information Theory Society She became a foreign member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1999.

Ingrid Daubechies’ parents were Marcel and Simone Daubechies. Both are now retired but Marcel was a civil mining engineer while Simone was criminologist with a great interest in history which she went back to university to study as an undergraduate after she retired.

What are wavelets used for?

A wavelet is a mathematical function used to divide a given function or continuous-time signal into different scale components. Usually one can assign a frequency range to each scale component. Each scale component can then be studied with a resolution that matches its scale.

What does wavelet transform do?

The wavelet transform (WT) can be used to analyze signals in time–frequency space and reduce noise, while retaining the important components in the original signals. In the past 20 years, WT has become a very effective tool in signal processing.
