Step 1: Understanding wavelet transform. A wavelet transform is a mathematical technique that decomposes an image into different frequency components for analysis.
Step 2: Components of wavelet transform. Wavelet decomposition splits an image into four sub-bands:
- LL (Approximation sub-band): Low-frequency components.
- LH (Horizontal details sub-band): High-frequency in horizontal, low in vertical.
- HL (Vertical details sub-band): High-frequency in vertical, low in horizontal.
- HH (Diagonal details sub-band): High-frequency in both directions.
Step 3: Selecting the correct option. Since wavelet decomposition results in four components (LL, LH, HL, HH), the correct answer is c. 4.
