Recall that the two-dimensional continuous wavelet transform (2D- CWT) is given by a
convolution product of a signal  
sx,y and an analyzing wavelet  
g x,y
(Chui, 1992;
Holschneider, 1995):
yb

where " a " is the scale parameter, " b x " and " b y " are the respective translations according to X-
axis and Y-axis (the symbol " " denotes the complex conjugate).
Alternatively, it can be computed via the Fast Fourier Transform:

Here, we compute the wavelet coefficients via FFT using the two-dimensional multiple filter
technique (2D MFT). The latter technique is obtained by generalizing the one-dimensional
version (1D MFT), suggested by Dziewonski et al. (1969) and improved by Li (1997), to the
two-dimensional case. It consists of filtering a two-dimensional signal using a Gaussian
filter

Where  is a constant, ( ξ 1 , ξ 2 ) and ( ν 1 , ν 2 ) are respectively the - 3 dB points of the Gaussian
filters G 1 and G 2 , respectively.
A fractal surface  
sx,y verifies the self-affinity property (Mandelbrot, 1977, 1982; Feder,
1988) :

Where H is the Hurst exponent (or the self-affinity parameter). The symbol  means the
equality of all its finite-dimensional probability distributions.
For sufficiently large values of k , the scalogram, defined as the square of the amplitude
spectrum:
