Abstract

Gabor cosine and sine functions have widely been used to describe the human visual filters. This paper presents a new method to locally represent image frequency components using these functions. The parameters of basis functions are determined based on dc ripple and the sidelobe strength of step response. The resultant transform consisting of Gabor cosine and sine functions is compared with existing transforms by computing the joint effective width and by applying to the image reconstruction with the limited number of transformed coefficients. The experimental results show that the proposed transform has better performance than DGT and DCT.

Gabor 코사인과 사인 함수는 인간시각 필터를 설명하기 위해서 많이 사용된다. 이 함수들로 영상주파수 성분을 국부적으로 표현하는 새로운 방법을 본 논문에서 제안한다. 직류 맥류와 계단입력에 대한 사이드 로브의 강도에 기초하여 기저함수의 변수들을 선택한다. Gabor 코사인과 사인으로 구성되는 결과적인 변환에 대해서 결합유효폭을 계산하고, 한정된 변환 계수만으로 영상을 복원하여 기존의 방법과 비교 검토한다. 제안한 변환이 DGT와 DCT보다 더 좋은 성능 결과를 나타낸다.
