  2. Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform

    That there is no one preferred way (often, one says "no canonical way") to compare the two versions of the real line which are involved in the Fourier transform—fixing the units on one line does not force the scale of the units on the other line—is the reason for the plethora of rival conventions on the definition of the Fourier transform.

  3. Discrete Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_Fourier_transform

    For example, several lossy image and sound compression methods employ the discrete Fourier transform: the signal is cut into short segments, each is transformed, and then the Fourier coefficients of high frequencies, which are assumed to be unnoticeable, are discarded. The decompressor computes the inverse transform based on this reduced number ...

  4. Gabor filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabor_filter

    Its impulse response is defined by a sinusoidal wave (a plane wave for 2D Gabor filters) multiplied by a Gaussian function. [6] Because of the multiplication-convolution property (Convolution theorem), the Fourier transform of a Gabor filter's impulse response is the convolution of the Fourier transform of the harmonic function (sinusoidal function) and the Fourier transform of the Gaussian ...

  5. DFT matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DFT_matrix

    In this case, if we make a very large matrix with complex exponentials in the rows (i.e., cosine real parts and sine imaginary parts), and increase the resolution without bound, we approach the kernel of the Fredholm integral equation of the 2nd kind, namely the Fourier operator that defines the continuous Fourier transform. A rectangular ...

  6. Fourier analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_analysis

    In image reconstruction, each image square is reassembled from the preserved approximate Fourier-transformed components, which are then inverse-transformed to produce an approximation of the original image. In signal processing, the Fourier transform often takes a time series or a function of continuous time, and maps it into a frequency spectrum.

  7. Fast Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Fourier_transform

    A fast Fourier transform (FFT) is an algorithm that computes the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a sequence, or its inverse (IDFT). A Fourier transform converts a signal from its original domain (often time or space) to a representation in the frequency domain and vice versa.

  8. Optical transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transfer_function

    Such extended objects illuminate more pixels in the image, and can improve the measurement accuracy due to the larger signal-to-noise ratio. The optical transfer function is in this case calculated as the two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform of the image and divided by that of the extended object. Typically either a line or a black-white ...

  9. Non-linear multi-dimensional signal processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-linear_multi...

    One example of nonlinear filters is the (generalized directional distance rational hybrid filter (GDDRHF) [1]) for multidimensional signal processing.This filter is a two-stage type hybrid filter: 1) the stage norm criteria and angular distance criteria to produce three output vectors with respect to the shape models; 2) the stage performs vector rational operation on the above three output ...
