The wavelet decomposition is a proven tool for constructing concise synopses of large data sets that can be used to obtain fast approximate answers. Existing research studies focus on selecting an optimal set of wavelet coefficients to store so as to minimize some error metric, without however seeking to reduce the size of the wavelet coefficients themselves
