Deterministic Wavelet Thresholding for Maximum-Error Metrics

Summary: Deterministic algorithms for wavelet thresholding that directly minimize maximum absolute/relative reconstruction error, avoiding the failure modes of prior probabilistic schemes. Provides an optimal low-polynomial DP for 1D and polynomial-time approximation schemes with tunable guarantees for multi-D. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
