Hermitian wavelets are a family of discrete and continuous wavelets used in the constant and discrete Hermite wavelet transforms. The Hermitian wavelet is defined as the normalized derivative of a Gaussian distribution for each positive :[1]where denotes the probabilist's Hermite polynomial. Each normalization coefficient is given by The function is said to be an admissible Hermite wavelet if it satisfies the admissibility condition:[2]

In computer vision and image processing, Gaussian derivative operators of different orders are frequently used as a basis for expressing various types of visual operations; see scale space and N-jet.[3]

Normalizing the derivatives yields three Hermitian wavelets:
