In this work, we extend the Euclidean wavelets to the sphere. The resulting over-complete spherical wavelets are invariant to rotation of the parameterization of the original spherical image. We apply the over-complete spherical wavelet to cortical folding development and show significantly consistent results as well as improved sensitivity compared with the previous method of using bi-orthogonal spherical wavelet. In particular, we are able to detect developmental asymmetry in the left and right hemispheres.

Description

Bump on the sphere (left side). When the north pole is right under the bump, both the bi-orthogonal and overcomplete wavelets detect the bump (first column on the right). When the north pole is rotated away from the bump, only the overcomplete wavelet detects the bump (second column on the right).
