Python3 Implementation of Steerable Pyramid

Steerable Pyramid

Python3 Implementation of steerable pyramid.

This is based on the article bellow.

The Heeger-Bergen Pyramid-Based Texture Synthesis Algorithm, Briand,T. et al. (2014)

According to this article, this is a "real version" of steerable pyramid which is used in Portilla and Simoncelli(2000).

Parametric Texture Model Based on Joint Statistics of Complex Wavelet Coefficient, Portilla, J. and Simoncelli, E.(2000)

Results

• Depth : 4
• Orientation : 4 (0, pi/4, pi/2, 3*pi/4)
