Kl. Chung et Wm. Yan, An efficient algorithm for the Fourier transform on a compressed image in restricted quadtree and shading format, INF PROCESS, 79(1), 2001, pp. 1-5
Given a compressed image in restricted quadtree and shading format, this pa
per presents an efficient algorithm for the Fourier transform on the compre
ssed image directly. The proposed algorithm takes O(K-2 log K + N-2) time,
where the decompressed grey image is of size N x N and K denotes the number
of nodes in the restricted quadtree. The proposed algorithm is more genera
l than the previous results of Anguh [IEEE Trans. Signal Processing 45 (199
7) 2896] and Philips [IEEE Trans. Signal Processing 47 (1999) 2059] since i
n their restricted quadtree format, each quadrant is of constant grey value
