Complex wavelet transform

A complex wavelet transform is like a math puzzle. It's a way to break things down into smaller pieces that can be put back together again. Think of it like a jigsaw puzzle. You cut it into pieces, rearrange the pieces, and when you're done, you have a picture. In this case, instead of cutting pieces of paper, you're cutting up a wave. It helps scientists analyze sounds, like a bird's chirp or music, in different ways.
