measure_wavelet

 ==============================================================
 MEASURE_WAVELET: evaluate the "goodness" of the wavelet created.

    GENERAL

      score = measure_wavelet(input_wavelet, wavelet_evaluation_method, warped_image)

    INPUT/S

      -input_wavelet:
           The wavelet parameters

      -wavelet_evaluation_method:
           The way to evaluate the data

      -warped_image
           The image currently being warped (for wavelet this argument is
           currently unused.

    OUTPUT/S

      -score:
           The score assigned to wavelet compressed data tree

    PENDING WORK

      -The current evaluation might be too simple

    KNOWN BUG/S

      -February: results returned aspire to make shapes shrivel
