Dct
OpenLvVision_OpenCv.lvlib:Dct.vim
Performs a forward or inverse discrete Cosine transform of 1D or 2D array.
The function cv::dct performs a forward or inverse discrete Cosine transform (DCT) of a 1D or 2D floating-point array:
- Forward Cosine transform of a 1D vector of N elements:$ Y = C^{(N)} \cdot X $
where
$ C^{(N)}_{jk} = \sqrt{\alpha_j / N}\, \cos\!\left(\frac{\pi(2k+1)j}{2N}\right) $and $\alpha_0 = 1$, $\alpha_j = 2$ for $j > 0$.
- Inverse Cosine transform of a 1D vector of N elements:$ X = \left(C^{(N)}\right)^{-1} \cdot Y = \left(C^{(N)}\right)^T \cdot Y $
(since $C^{(N)}$ is an orthogonal matrix, $C^{(N)} \cdot (C^{(N)})^T = I$)
- Forward 2D Cosine transform of an $M \times N$ matrix:$ Y = C^{(N)} \cdot X \cdot \left(C^{(N)}\right)^T $
- Inverse 2D Cosine transform of an $M \times N$ matrix:$ X = \left(C^{(N)}\right)^T \cdot X \cdot C^{(N)} $
The function chooses the mode of operation by checking the flags and the size of the input array:
- If
(flags & DCT_INVERSE) == 0, a forward 1D or 2D transform is performed; otherwise, an inverse transform. - If
(flags & DCT_ROWS) != 0, the function performs a 1D transform of each row. - If the array is a single row or a single column, the function performs a 1D transform.
- Otherwise, a 2D transform is performed.

| Src input floating-point array. |

| Inverse performs an inverse 1D or 2D transform instead of the default forward transform. |
| Rows performs a forward or inverse transform of every individual row of the input matrix. This flag enables you to transform multiple vectors simultaneously and can be used to decrease the overhead (which is sometimes several times larger than the processing itself) to perform 3D and higher-dimensional transforms and so forth. |
