Abstract :
The article describes a new image transform that decomposes an image using a set of Gaussian derivatives. The basis functions themselves have been shown to effectively model the measured receptive fields of simple cells in the mammalian visual cortex. Based on these functions, it can be expected that this transform can provide a mechanism for exploiting the properties of the human visual system in image processing algorithms
