inverse_gft {gasper}

Compute Inverse Graph Fourier Transform

Description

inverse_gft computes the Inverse Graph Fourier Transform (IGFT) of a given transformed graph signal \hat{f}.

Usage

inverse_gft(L, hatf, U = NULL)

Arguments

L

Laplacian matrix of the graph (matrix).

hatf

Numeric vector. Graph Fourier Transform of the signal to be inverted.

U

Matrix of the eigenvectors of the Laplacian matrix. If NULL (default), the function will compute the eigendecomposition of the Laplacian.

Details

The IGFT enables the reconstruction of graph signals from their frequency domain representation. The "frequency" in the context of graph signal processing refers to the decomposition of the signal using the graph's Laplacian eigenvectors.

The IGFT of a transformed graph signal \hat{f} is given by:

f = U \hat{f}

where U represents the matrix of eigenvectors of the graph's Laplacian.

When the eigenvectors U are not provided, the function computes them from the Laplacian matrix L.

Value

f Numeric vector. Original graph signal obtained from the inverse transform of \hat{f}.
