Unified eigenfilter approach: with applications to spectral/spatial filtering
Tongwen Chen · 1993 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems · 2002
The eigenfilter approach is extended to solve general least-squares approximation problems with linear constraints. Such extension unifies previous work in eigenfilters and many other filter design problems, including spectral/spatial filtering, one-dimensional or multidimensional filters, data independent or statistically optimal filtering, etc. With this approach, various filter design problems are transformed into problems of finding an eigenvector of a positive definite matrix that is determined by filter design specifications. This approach has the advantage that many filter design constraints can be incorporated easily. A number of design examples are presented to show the usefulness and flexibility of the proposed approach.>
