Is there a reason why wavelet in continuous wavelet transform are symmetric?

I have looked at several packages to do continuous wavelet transform (cwt), and the usable wavelet families that are available are always symmetric. Is there a reason for that? The kind of signals I ...

Discrete wavelet decomposition over detail coefficients

per my understanding, if we take a 3-level discrete wavelet decomposition (DWT) over a 1-D signal with sampling rate $F_s$, we will get a series of detail and approximation coefficients, ex: [cA3, cD3,...

Difference between Discrete Wavelet Transform and convolution

Sorry in advance if my question is too dumb. I'm going through the book of Mallat, and from what I understand, the approximation/wavelet coefficients $a_j[n] = <f, \phi_{j,n}>$ and $d_j[n] = <...
