2-D Prony-Huang Transform: A New Tool for 2-D Spectral Analysis
This work proposes an extension of the 1-D Hilbert Huang transform for the
analysis of images. The proposed method consists in (i) adaptively decomposing
an image into oscillating parts called intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using a
mode decomposition procedure, and (ii) providing a local spectral analysis of
the obtained IMFs in order to get the local amplitudes, frequencies, and
orientations. For the decomposition step, we propose two robust 2-D mode
decompositions based on non-smooth convex optimization: a "Genuine 2-D"
approach, that constrains the local extrema of the IMFs, and a "Pseudo 2-D"
approach, which constrains separately the extrema of lines, columns, and
diagonals. The spectral analysis step is based on Prony annihilation property
that is applied on small square patches of the IMFs. The resulting 2-D
Prony-Huang transform is validated on simulated and real data.Comment: 24 pages, 7 figure
