HAAR
The Haar Transform {#haar-the-haar-transform align="center"}

HAAR is a C++ library which computes the Haar transform of data.

In the simplest case, one is given a vector X whose length N is a power of 2. We now consider consecutive pairs of entries of X, and for I from 0 to (N/2)-1 we define:

        S[I] = ( X[2*I] + X[2*I+1] ) / sqrt ( 2 )
        D[I] = ( X[2*I] - X[2*I+1] ) / sqrt ( 2 )

We now replace X by the vector S concatenated with D. Assuming that (N/2) is greater than 1, we repeat the operation on the (N/2) entries of S, and so on, until we have reached a stage where our resultant S and D each contain one entry.

For data in the form of a 2D array, the transform is applied to the columns and then the rows.
