  • Abstract
    We introduce a new discrete polynomial transform constructed from the rows of Pascal´s triangle. The forward and inverse transforms are computed the same way in both the one- and two-dimensional cases, and the transform matrix can be factored into binary matrices for efficient hardware implementation. We conclude by discussing applications of the transform in digital image processing, such as bump and edge detection.
