Abstract
An architecture for efficient and accurate linear decomposition of an image into scale and orientation subbands is described. The basis functions of this decomposition are directional derivative operators of any desired order. The decomposition is the latest incarnation of the so-called steerable pyramid. The scale tuning of the filters is constrained by a recursive system diagram. The orientation tuning is constrained by the property of steerability. In addition, the transform is designed to be 'self-inverting' and is essentially aliasing-free. Most importantly, the pyramid can be designed to produce any number of orientation bands.
