Is it accurate to say that wavelets were a promising avenue of research in the 1990s but interest in them has kind of died because they were obsoleted by CNNs?

  Because neural networks can learn a natural basis (on the manifold of natural images). And image compression is not an interesting problem any more.

  Not every problem needs a CNN thrown at it.
