Abstract :
The Gabor transform is very useful for image analysis and compression. However, computation of the Gabor transform is very complicated and time consuming because the Gabor elementary functions are not mutually orthogonal. An efficient algorithm is presented for computing Gabor transforms. It is applied to image compression with good results.
