Abstract

A new directional filter bank for image analysis and classification is proposed. This paper introduces an improved structure in order to visualize subband outputs of the directional filter banks, while retaining the attractive properties of the original directional filter banks such as 1-D separable filtering, perfect reconstruction, and maximal decimation. Using this structure, any arbitrary 2/sup n/ band directional filter bank can be implemented by cascading simple directional filter bank blocks, unlike the original structure that needs a parallel structure for visualizing subband outputs. Also, in order to have nondistorted phase information in the subbands for visualization, both FIR and IIR filter prototypes that can be implemented efficiently are provided for linear phase filtering. This paper shows the approach proposed here can be applied to image analysis and classification.
