Weighted ENO interpolation and applications

Abstract Data-dependent interpolatory techniques such as essentially non-oscillatory (ENO) technique [J. Comput. Phys. 71 (1987) 231] have long been used as a reconstruction process in multiresolution schemes. In this work we analyze the weighted ENO (WENO) technique introduced by Liu et al. in the context of conservation laws [J. Comput. Phys. 115 (1994) 200] and improved by Jiang and Shu [J. Comput. Phys. 126 (1996) 202], and apply it to the compression of images, using multiresolution techniques.
