Abstract
A scheme suitable for visual information representation in a
combined frequency-position space is investigated through image
decomposition into a finite set of two-dimensional Gabor elementary
functions (GEF). The scheme is generalized to account for the
position-dependent Gabor-sampling rate, oversampling, logarithmic
frequency scaling and phase-quantization characteristic of the visual
system. Comparison of reconstructed signal highlights the advantages of
the generalized Gabor scheme in coding typical bandlimited images. It is
shown that there exists a tradeoff between the number of frequency
components used per position and the number of such clusters (sampling
rate) utilized along the spatial coordinate
