The approach features the use of matrix representation of one- dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) FFT and fast DCT algorithms along with the tensor product, and the use of logic diagram and rules for modifications. In the first pan of the thesis, the structural approach is applied to construct 2-D Decimation-In-Time (DIT), Decimation-In-Frequency (DIF) and mixed (DIT & DIF) vector radix FFT algorithms from corresponding 1-D FFT algorithms by the Cooley- Tukey method. The results are summarized in theorems as well as examples using logic diagrams. It has been shown that the logic diagram (or signal flow graph) as well as being a form of representation and interpretation of fast algorithm equations, is a stand­ alone engineering tool for the construction of fast algorithms. The concept of "vector signal processing" is adapted into the logic diagram representation which reveals the structural features of multidimensional vector radix FFTs and explains the relationships and differences between the row-column FFT, the vector radix FFT reported previously and the approach presented in this thesis. The introduction of the structural approach makes the formulation of a multidimensional vector radix FFT algorithm of high radix and dimension easy to evaluate and implement by both software and hardware.

  • 7 Image Processing: Discrete Images
    7 Image Processing: Discrete Images In the previous chapter we explored linear, shift-invariant systems in the continuous two-dimensional domain. In practice, we deal with images that are both limited in extent and sampled at discrete points. The results developed so far have to be specialized, extended, and modified to be useful in this domain. Also, a few new aspects appear that must be treated carefully. The sampling theorem tells us under what circumstances a discrete set of samples can accurately represent a continuous image. We also learn what happens when the conditions for the application of this result are not met. This has significant implications for the design of imaging systems. Methods requiring transformation to the frequency domain have be- come popular, in part because of algorithms that permit the rapid compu- tation of the discrete Fourier transform. Care has to be taken, however, since these methods assume that the signal is periodic. We discuss how this requirement can be met and what happens when the assumption does not apply. 7.1 Finite Image Size In practice, images are always of finite size. Consider a rectangular image 7.1 Finite Image Size 145 of width W and height H. Then the integrals in the Fourier transform no longer need to be taken to infinity: H/2 W/2 F (u, v)= f(x, y)e−i(ux+vy) dx dy. −H/2 −W/2 Curiously, we do not need to know F (u, v) for all frequencies in order to reconstruct f(x, y). Knowing that f(x, y)=0for|x| >W/2 and |y| >H/2 provides a strong constraint.

    Efficient Computation of the 8-point DCT via Summation by Parts D. F. G. Coelho∗ R. J. Cintra† V. S. Dimitrov‡ Abstract This paper introduces a new fast algorithm for the 8-point discrete cosine transform (DCT) based on the summation-by-parts formula. The proposed method converts the DCT matrix into an alternative transformation matrix that can be decomposed into sparse matrices of low multiplicative complexity. The method is capable of scaled and exact DCT computation and its associated fast algorithm achieves the theoretical minimal multiplicative complexity for the 8-point DCT. Depending on the nature of the input signal simplifications can be introduced and the overall complexity of the proposed algorithm can be further reduced. Several types of input signal are analyzed: arbitrary, null mean, accumulated, and null mean/accumulated signal. The proposed tool has potential application in harmonic detection, image enhancement, and feature extraction, where input signal DC level is discarded and/or the signal is required to be integrated. Keywords DCT, Fast Algorithms, Image Processing 1 Introduction Discrete transforms play a central role in signal processing. Noteworthy methods include trigonometric transforms— such as the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) [1], discrete Hartley transform (DHT) [1], discrete cosine transform (DCT) [2], and discrete sine transform (DST) [2]—as well as the Haar and Walsh-Hadamard transforms [3]. Among these methods, the DCT has been applied in several practical contexts: noise reduction [4], watermarking methods [5], image/video compression techniques [2], and harmonic detection [2], to cite a few. In fact, when processing signals modeled as a stationary Markov-1 type random process, the DCT behaves as the asymptotic case of the optimal Karhunen–Lo`eve transform in terms of data decorrelation [2].

    Article Discrete Two-Dimensional Fourier Transform in Polar Coordinates Part I: Theory and Operational Rules Natalie Baddour 1,* 1 Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Ottawa, 161 Louis Pasteur, , Ottawa, Canada * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: (+1(613)5625800 X2324; Received: 9 July 2019; Accepted: 26 July 2019; Published: 2 August 2019 Abstract: The theory of the continuous two-dimensional (2D) Fourier transform in polar coordinates has been recently developed but no discrete counterpart exists to date. In this paper, we propose and evaluate the theory of the 2D discrete Fourier transform (DFT) in polar coordinates. This discrete theory is shown to arise from discretization schemes that have been previously employed with the 1D DFT and the discrete Hankel transform (DHT). The proposed transform possesses orthogonality properties, which leads to invertibility of the transform. In the first part of this two- part paper, the theory of the actual manipulated quantities is shown, including the standard set of shift, modulation, multiplication, and convolution rules. Parseval and modified Parseval relationships are shown, depending on which choice of kernel is used. Similar to its continuous counterpart, the 2D DFT in polar coordinates is shown to consist of a 1D DFT, DHT and 1D inverse DFT. Keywords: Fourier Theory, DFT in polar coordinates, polar coordinates, multidimensional DFT, discrete Hankel Transform, discrete Fourier Transform, Orthogonality. 1. Introduction The Fourier transform (FT) in continuous and discrete forms has seen much application in various disciplines [1]. It easily expands to multiple dimensions, with all the same rules of the one- dimensional (1D) case carrying into the multiple dimensions.

This system exploits the feature extraction capabilities of the discrete cosine transform (DCT) and invokes certain normalization techniques that increase its robustness to variations in facial geometry and illumination. The method was tested on a variety of available face databases, including one collected at McGill University. The system was shown to perform very well when compared to other approaches.

  • Difference Between DFT and DTFT
    Difference between DFT and DTFT Discrete Fourier transform In mathematics, the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) converts a finite sequence of equally-spaced samples of a function into a same-length sequence of equally-spaced samples of the discrete time Fourier transform (DTFT), which is a complex-valued function of frequency. The interval at which the DTFT is sampled is the reciprocal of the duration of the input sequence. An inverse DFT is a Fourier series, using the DTFT samples as coefficients of complex sinusoids at the corresponding DTFT frequencies. It has the same sample-values as the original input sequence. The DFT is therefore said to be a frequency domain representation of the original input sequence. If the original sequence spans all the non-zero values of a function, its DTFT is continuous (and periodic), and the DFT provides discrete samples of one cycle. If the original sequence is one cycle of a periodic function, the DFT provides all the non-zero values of one DTFT cycle. Depiction of a Fourier transform (upper left) and its periodic summation (DTFT) in the lower left corner. The spectral sequences at (a) upper right and (b) lower right are respectively computed from (a) one cycle of the periodic summation of s(t) and (b) one cycle of the periodic summation of the s(nT) sequence. The respective formulas are (a) the Fourier series integral and (b) the DFT summation. Its similarities to the original transform, S(f), and its relative computational ease are often the motivation for computing a DFT sequence. The DFT is the most important discrete transform, used to perform Fourier analysis in many practical applications.[1] In digital signal processing, the function is any quantity or signal that varies over time, such as the pressure of a sound wave, a radio signal, or daily temperature readings, sampled over a finite time interval (often defined by a window function[2]).
