	abstract =	{It is well-known that wavelets provide a transformation of
	image data that has excellent properties with respect to image
	compression.  The reasons for the compression ability of wavelets
	however have not been fully understood. In this paper we show that
	there is an interesting connection between wavelets and statistical
	properties of real-world images. This might lead to new theoretical and
	practical results in the domain of image processing. We show how
	wavelet-like filters emerge automatically as a result of applying a
	statistical technique, called independent component analysis, on
	natural images.},
