Mathematician wins Fudan-Zhongzhi prize
Ingrid Daubechies, professor of mathematics at Duke University, was presented with the 3 million yuan (US$435,000) Fudan-Zhongzhi science award on Sunday.
The award recognized her leadership in wavelet theory and time-frequency analysis which fundamentally changed image and signal processing.
“Daubechies is known for her work on the mathematical foundations of image processing, in particular construction of the Daubechies and Cohen-Daubechies-Feauveau wavelets,” Samuel Ting, a Nobel laureate in physics and chairman of the Fudan-Zhongzhi Science Award Committee, told the ceremony.
