Multidimensional polynomial transform algorithm for multidimensional discrete W transform

摘要

The multidimensional (MD) polynomial transform is used to convert the MD W transform (MDDWT) into a series of one-dimensional (1-D) W transforms (DWTs). Thus, a new polynomial transform algorithm for the MDDWT is obtained. The algorithm needs no operations on complex data. The number of multiplications for computing an r-dimensional DWT is only 1 times that of the commonly used row-column method. The number of additions is also reduced considerably.
