    Uncovering the limits of uniqueness in sampled Gabor phase retrieval: A dense set of counterexamples in L2(ℝ)

    No full text
    Sampled Gabor phase retrieval — the problem of recovering a square-integrable signal from the magnitude of its Gabor transform sampled on a lattice — is a fundamental problem in signal processing, with important applications in areas such as imaging and audio processing. Recently, a classification of square-integrable signals which are not phase retrievable from Gabor measurements on parallel lines has been presented. This classification was used to exhibit a family of counterexamples to uniqueness in sampled Gabor phase retrieval. Here, we show that the set of counterexamples to uniqueness in sampled Gabor phase retrieval is dense in L2(ℝ), but is not equal to the whole of L2(ℝ) in general. Overall, our work contributes to a better understanding of the fundamental limits of sampled Gabor phase retrieval.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Analysi

    Gabor Frames for Model Sets

    No full text
    We generalize three main concepts of Gabor analysis for lattices to the setting of model sets: fundamental identity of Gabor analysis, Janssen’s representation of the frame operator and Wexler–Raz biorthogonality relations. Utilizing the connection between model sets and almost periodic functions, as well as Poisson’s summations formula for model sets we develop a form of a bracket product that plays a central role in our approach. Furthermore, we show that, if a Gabor system for a model set admits a dual which is of Gabor type, then the density of the model set has to be greater than one.© The Author(s) 201

    A fast learning algorithm for Gabor transformation

    No full text
    An adaptive learning approach for the computation of the coefficients of the generalized nonorthogonal 2-D Gabor transform representation is introduced in this correspondence. The algorithm uses a recursive least squares (RLS) type algorithm. The aim is to achieve minimum mean squared error for the reconstructed image from the set of the Gabor coefficients. The proposed RLS learning offers better accuracy and faster convergence behavior when compared with the least mean squares (LMS)-based algorithms. Applications of this scheme in image data reduction are also demonstrated

    No full text
    AbstractIn this paper proposed palmprint identification using Gabor features, Gabor and Wide Principal Line Image (WPLI) features. Extracted a fixed size ROI from palmprint images. Resize the extracted ROI into 64 x 64. Apply the Gabor filters to extract the features from the resized ROI. Dissimilarity distance is used to measure the dissimilarity between the query palmprint and database palmprint images. Experiments were conducted on Polyu Palmprint Database using Gabor features, Gabor and WPLI features. Experimental results shows that the proposed approach using Gabor and WPLI features obtains better results compared with the existing methods

    Simple brightness models with low-pass and Gabor filters

    A syntactical brightness model based on a multiscale line and edge representation obtained by a set of anisotropic Gabor filters is quite complex (du Buf and Fischer, 1995 Optical Engineering 34 1900-1911). Although only tested in 1-D, it was shown to yield correct brightness effects for many patterns

    Effective Discretization of Gabor Features for Real-Time Face Detection

    No full text
    We describe a real-time face detector based on Gabor features. While Gabor features often lead to improved performance, they are often avoided as they are perceived as being computationally expensive. We address this in two ways. First, we propose an efficient discrete encoding method for the Gabor feature vector. This enables us to use a computationally efficient multi-stage classifier based on boosting and winnowing. Second, we accelerate computationally complex computations using the parallelization provided by graphics processing units (GPUs). With these innovations, the resulting detector runs at 16.8 fps for 640 x 480 images on a PC equipped with an i5 CPU and a GTX 465 graphic card.</p

    Density of Gabor Systems Via the Short Time Fourier Transform

    No full text
    We apply a new approach to the study of the density of Gabor systems, and obtain a simple and straightforward proof to Ramanathan and Steger’s well-known result regarding the density of Gabor frames and Gabor Riesz sequences. Moreover, this point of view allows us to extend this result in several directions. The approach we use was first observed by Olevskii and the third author in their study of exponential systems, here we develop and simplify it further

    Absorbing new subjects: holography as an analog of photography

    No full text
    I discuss the early history of holography and explore how perceptions, applications, and forecasts of the subject were shaped by prior experience. I focus on the work of Dennis Gabor (1900–1979) in England,Yury N. Denisyuk (b. 1924) in the Soviet Union, and Emmett N. Leith (1927–2005) and Juris Upatnieks (b. 1936) in the United States. I show that the evolution of holography was simultaneously promoted and constrained by its identification as an analog of photography, an association that influenced its assessment by successive audiences of practitioners, entrepreneurs, and consumers. One consequence is that holography can be seen as an example of a modern technical subject that has been shaped by cultural influences more powerfully than generally appreciated. Conversely, the understanding of this new science and technology in terms of an older one helps to explain why the cultural effects of holography have been more muted than anticipated by forecasters between the 1960s and 1990s

    Gabor Frames and Deep Scattering Networks in Audio Processing

    No full text
    This paper introduces Gabor scattering, a feature extractor based on Gabor frames and Mallat’s scattering transform. By using a simple signal model for audio signals, specific properties of Gabor scattering are studied. It is shown that, for each layer, specific invariances to certain signal characteristics occur. Furthermore, deformation stability of the coefficient vector generated by the feature extractor is derived by using a decoupling technique which exploits the contractivity of general scattering networks. Deformations are introduced as changes in spectral shape and frequency modulation. The theoretical results are illustrated by numerical examples and experiments. Numerical evidence is given by evaluation on a synthetic and a “real” dataset, that the invariances encoded by the Gabor scattering transform lead to higher performance in comparison with just using Gabor transform, especially when few training samples are available.© 2019 by the author
