Abstract

We generalize the Gaussian multi-resolution image paradigm for a Euclidean domain to general Riemannian base manifolds and also account for the codomain by considering the extension into a fibre bundle structure. We elaborate on aspects of parametrization and gauge, as these are important in practical applications. We subsequently scrutinize two examples that are of interest in bio-mathematical modeling, viz. scale space on the unit sphere, used among others for codomain regularization in the context of high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI), and retino-cortical scale space, proposed as a biologically plausible model of the human visual pathway from retina to striate cortex.
