06-16-11 - Optimal Halve for Doubling Filter

I've touched on this topic several times in the past . I'm going to wrap up a loose end.

Say you have some given linear doubling filter (linear in the operator sense, not that it's a line). You wish to halve your image in the best way such that the round trip has minimum error.

For a given discrete doubling filter (non-interpolating) find the optimal halving filter that minimizes L2 error. I did it numerically, not analytically, and measured the actual error of down->up vs. original on a large test set.

I generated halving filters for half-widths of 3,4, and 5. Large filters always produce lower error, but also more ringing, so you may not want the largest width halving filter.
