Wavelet Analysis

Sabrine Arfaoui is the assistant professor of mathematics at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Monastir. Her main interests include wavelet harmonic analysis, especially in the Clifford algebra/analysis framework and their applications in other fields such as fractals, PDEs, bio-signals/bio-images. Currently Dr. Arfaoui is associated with the University of Tabuk, Saudi Arabia in a technical cooperation project. Anouar Ben Mabrouk is currently working as the professor of mathematics. He is also the associate professor of Mathematics at the University of Kairouan, Tunisia, the Faculty of Sciences, University of Monastir. His main research interests are are wavelets, fractals, probability/statistics, PDEs and related fields such as financial mathematics, time series, image/signal processing, numerical and theoretical aspects of PDEs. Dr. Ben Mabrouk is currently associated with the University of Tabuk, Saudi Arabia in a technical cooperation project.
