چکیده

We present a computational, group-theoretic approach to steerable functions. The approach is group-theoretic in that the treatment involves continuous transformation groups for which elementary Lie group theory may be applied. The approach is computational in that the theory is constructive and leads directly to a procedural implementation. For functions that are steerable with n basis functions under a k-parameter group, the procedure is eecient in that at most nk + 1 iterations of the procedure are needed to compute all the basis functions. Furthermore, the procedure is guaranteed to return the minimum number of basis functions. If the function is not steerable, a numerical implementation of the procedure could be used to compute basis functions that approximately steer the function over a range of parameters. Examples of both applications are described.

Design of Multi-Parameter Steerable Functions Using Cascade Basis Reduction

A new cascade basis reduction method of computing the optimal least-squares set of basis functions steering a given function is presented. The method combines the Lie group-theoretic and the singular value decomposition approaches in such a way that their respective strengths complement each other. Since the Lie group-theoretic approach is used, the set of basis and steering functions computed ...

Rotated Wedge Averaging Method for Junction Characterization

The computational cost of conventional lter methods for junction characterization is very high. This burden can be attenuated by using steerable lters. However, in order to achieve a high orientational selectivity to characterize complex junctions a large number of basis lters is necessary. From this results a yet too high computational eeort for steerable lters. In this paper we present a new ...

The Effect of Grammar vs. Vocabulary Pre-teaching on EFL Learners’ Reading Comprehension: A Schema-Theoretic View of Reading

This study was designed to investigate the effect of grammar and vocabulary pre-teaching, as two types of pre-reading activities, on the Iranian EFL learners’ reading comprehension from a schema–theoretic perspective. The sample consisted of 90 female students studying at pre-university centers of Isfahan.  The subjects were randomly divided into three equal-in-number groups. They participated ...
