Baroness Ingrid Daubechies is a Belgian-American physicist and mathematician, born in 1954, best known for her work with wavelets in image compression. The orthogonal Daubechies wavelet and the biorthogonal CDF wavelet carry her name, and a wavelet from this family is used in the JPEG 2000 standard. In 1991 she was appointed a professor at Rutgers University and in 1994 she moved to Princeton University, and she now works at Duke University. She is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and a 1992 MacArthur Fellow.
