Adaptive McClellan transformations for quincunx filter banks
J.M. Shapiro · IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing · 1994
A technique is developed for the design of 2-D nonseparable two-channel filter banks for a quincunx sampling lattice, where the isopotentials of the frequency response can be optimized and adapted to the input signal's statistics. By employing known odd-length symmetric linear phase filter banks as the l-D prototype filters for 2-D filters parameterized by the McClellan transformation, conditions are derived such that the resulting 2-D two-channel filter bank retains the perfect-reconstruction or aliasing-free properties of the 1-D prototype two-channel filter bank. A particular two-parameter transformation function is developed that has sufficient flexibility to adapt its orientation in any direction and whose optimization involves a simple constrained least-squares problem in which the feasible set lies within a circle. The results have practical applications in many areas of image and video processing where multirate filter banks are used.>
