The convolution defines a product on the linear space of integrable functions. This product satisfies the following algebraic properties, which formally mean that the space of integrable functions with the product given by convolution is a commutative associative algebra without identity (Strichartz 1994, §3.3).
The convolution/sum of probability distributions arises in probability theory and statistics as the operation in terms of probability distributions that corresponds to the addition of independent random variables and, by extension, to forming linear combinations of random variables.
In scientific visualization, line integral convolution (LIC) is a method to visualize a vector field (such as fluid motion) at high spatial resolutions. [1] The LIC technique was first proposed by Brian Cabral and Leith Casey Leedom in 1993.
The following is a pseudocode of the algorithm: (Overlap-add algorithm for linear convolution) h = FIR_filter M = length(h) Nx = length(x) N = 8 × 2^ceiling( log2(M) ) (8 times the smallest power of two bigger than filter length M.
In mathematics, the convolution theorem states that under suitable conditions the Fourier transform of a convolution of two functions (or signals) is the product of their Fourier transforms. More generally, convolution in one domain (e.g., time domain ) equals point-wise multiplication in the other domain (e.g., frequency domain ).
where:. DFT N and IDFT N refer to the Discrete Fourier transform and its inverse, evaluated over N discrete points, and; L is customarily chosen such that N = L+M-1 is an integer power-of-2, and the transforms are implemented with the FFT algorithm, for efficiency.
Convolution in one dimension was a powerful discovery that allowed the input and output of a linear shift-invariant (LSI) system (see LTI system theory) to be easily compared so long as the impulse response of the filter system was known. This notion carries over to multidimensional convolution as well, as simply knowing the impulse response of ...
