COMPARISON OF WAVELET APPROXIMATION ORDER IN DIFFERENT SMOOTHNESS SPACES M. R. ISLAM, S. F. AHEMMED, AND S. M. A. RAHMAN Received 20 April 2005; Revised 3 April 2006; Accepted 25 April 2006 In linear approximation by wavelet, we approximate a given function by a finite term from the wavelet series. The approximation order is improved if the order of smoothness of the given function is improved, discussed by Cohen (2003), DeVore (1998), and Siddiqi (2004). But in the case of nonlinear approximation, the approximation order is improved quicker than that in linear case. In this study we pr
