Abstract
Scale-space filtering is the only known method which provides a
hierarchic signal description method by extracting features across a
continuum of scales. One of its important characteristics is that it
demands the filtering involved does not create generic features as the
scale increases. It has been shown that the Gaussian filter is unique in
holding this remarkable property. This is in essence the so-called
scaling theorem. In this paper, we propose two scaling theorems for
band-limited signals. They are applicable to a broader class of signals
and a bigger family of filtering kernels than in Babaud et al. (1986),
Yuille et al. (1986) and Wu-Xie (1990). An in-depth discussion of our
theorems and the previously published ones is also given
