Description

gen_gaborgen_gaborGenGaborGenGaborgen_gabor generates a Gabor filter with a user-definable bandpass frequency range and sign for the Hilbert transform. This is done by calculating a symmetrical filter in the frequency domain, which can be adapted by the parameters AngleAngleAngleangleangle, FrequencyFrequencyFrequencyfrequencyfrequency, BandwidthBandwidthBandwidthbandwidthbandwidth and OrientationOrientationOrientationorientationorientation such that a certain frequency band and a certain direction range in the spatial domain is filtered out in the frequency domain.

The parameters FrequencyFrequencyFrequencyfrequencyfrequency (central frequency = distance from the DC term) and OrientationOrientationOrientationorientationorientation (direction) determine the center of the filter. Larger values of FrequencyFrequencyFrequencyfrequencyfrequency result in higher frequencies being passed. A value of 0 for OrientationOrientationOrientationorientationorientation generates a horizontally oriented “crescent” (the bulge of the crescent points upward). Higher values of OrientationOrientationOrientationorientationorientation result in the counterclockwise rotation of the crescent.

The parameters AngleAngleAngleangleangle and BandwidthBandwidthBandwidthbandwidthbandwidth are used to determine the range of frequencies and angles being passed by the filter. The larger AngleAngleAngleangleangle is, the smaller the range of angles passed by the filter gets (because the “crescent” gets narrower). The larger BandwidthBandwidthBandwidthbandwidthbandwidth is, the smaller the frequency band being passed gets (because the “crescent” gets thinner).

To achieve a maximum overall efficiency of the filtering operation, the parameter NormNormNormnormnorm can be used to specify the normalization factor of the filter. If fft_genericfft_genericFftGenericFftGenericfft_generic and NormNormNormnormnorm = 'n'"n""n""n""n" is used the normalization in the FFT can be avoided. ModeModeModemodemode can be used to determine where the DC term of the filter lies. If fft_genericfft_genericFftGenericFftGenericfft_generic is used, 'dc_edge'"dc_edge""dc_edge""dc_edge""dc_edge" can be used to gain efficiency. If fft_imagefft_imageFftImageFftImagefft_image and fft_image_invfft_image_invFftImageInvFftImageInvfft_image_inv are used for filtering, NormNormNormnormnorm = 'none'"none""none""none""none" and ModeModeModemodemode = 'dc_center'"dc_center""dc_center""dc_center""dc_center" must be used. Note that gen_gaborgen_gaborGenGaborGenGaborgen_gabor cannot create a filter that can be used with rft_genericrft_genericRftGenericRftGenericrft_generic.

The resulting image is a two-channel real-image, containing the Gabor filter in the first channel and the corresponding Hilbert filter in the second channel.
