# Details
The term *filtering* emerges in the context of a Fourier transformation of
an image, which maps an image from its canonical spatial domain to its
concomitant frequency domain. Manipulating an image in the frequency domain
amounts to retaining or discarding particular frequency components—a process
analogous to sifting or filtering [1].  Because the Fourier transform establishes a
link between the spatial and frequency representation of an image, one can
interpret various image manipulations in the spatial domain as filtering
operations which accept or reject specific frequencies.

The phrase *spatial filtering* is often used to emphasise that an operation
is, at least conceptually, devised in the context of the spatial domain of an
image. One further distinguishes between linear and non-linear spatial
filtering. A filter is called linear if the operation performed on the pixels is
linear, and is labeled non-linear otherwise.

An image filter can be represented by a function
```math
 w: \\{s\\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid -k_1 \\le s \\le k_1  \\} \\times  \\{t \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid -k_2 \\le t \\le k_2  \\}   \\rightarrow \\mathbb{R},
```
where ``k_i  \\in \\mathbb{N}`` (i = 1,2). It is common to define ``k_1 = 2a+1``
and ``k_2 = 2b + 1``, where ``a`` and ``b`` are integers, which ensures that the
filter dimensions are of odd size. Typically, ``k_1`` equals ``k_2`` and so,
dropping the subscripts, one speaks of a ``k \\times k`` filter. Since the
domain of the filter represents a grid of spatial coordinates, the filter is
often called a mask and is visualized as a grid. For example, a ``3 \\times 3``
mask can be potrayed as follows:

```math
\\scriptsize
\\begin{matrix}
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(-1,-1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}

&

\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(-1,0) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
 &
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(-1,1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
\\\\
\\\\
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(0,-1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}

&

\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(0,0) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
 &
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(0,1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
\\\\
\\\\
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(1,-1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}

&

\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(1,0) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
 &
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
w(1,1) \\\\
\\phantom{w(-9,-9)} \\\\
\\end{matrix}
}
\\end{matrix}.
```
The values of ``w(s,t)`` are referred to as *filter coefficients*.

## Discrete convolution versus correlation

There are two fundamental and closely related operations that one regularly
performs on an image with a filter. The operations are called discrete
*correlation* and *convolution*.

The correlation operation, denoted by the symbol ``\\star``,  is given in two
dimensions by the expression

```math
\\begin{aligned}
g(x,y) = w(x,y) \\star f(x,y) = \\sum_{s = -a}^{a} \\sum_{t=-b}^{b} w(s,t) f(x+s, y+t),
\\end{aligned}
```
whereas the comparable convolution operation, denoted by the symbol ``\\ast``,
is given in two dimensions by

```math
\\begin{aligned}
h(x,y) = w(x,y) \\ast f(x,y) = \\sum_{s = -a}^{a} \\sum_{t=-b}^{b} w(s,t) f(x-s, y-t).
\\end{aligned}
```
Since a digital image is of finite extent, both of these operations are
undefined at the borders of the image. In particular, for an image of size ``M
\\times N``, the function ``f(x \\pm s, y \\pm t)`` is only defined for ``1 \\le
x \\pm s \\le N`` and ``1 \\le y \\pm t \\le M``. In practice one addresses this
problem by artificially expanding the domain of the image. For example, one can
pad the image with zeros. Other padding strategies are possible, and they are
discussed in more detail in the *Options* section of this documentation.

## One-dimensional illustration

The difference between correlation and convolution is best understood with
recourse to a one-dimensional example  adapted from [1]. Suppose that a filter
``w:\\{-1,0,1\\}\\rightarrow \\mathbb{R}`` has coefficients

```math
\\begin{matrix}
\\boxed{1} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{3}
\\end{matrix}.
```
Consider a discrete unit impulse function ``f: \\{x \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid 1 \\le x
\\le 7  \\} \\rightarrow \\{0,1\\}``  that has been padded with zeros. The function
can be visualised as an image

```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & 0
\\end{matrix}}.
```
The correlation operation can be interpreted as sliding ``w`` along the image
and computing the sum of products at each location. For example,
```math
\\begin{matrix}
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\\\
1 & 2 & 3  &  & & & & & \\\\
& 1 & 2 & 3  &  & & & &  \\\\
& & 1 & 2 & 3  &  & & &  \\\\
& & & 1 & 2 & 3  &  & &  \\\\
& & & & 1 & 2 & 3  &  &  \\\\
& & & & & 1 & 2 & 3  &  \\\\
& & & & & & 1 & 2 & 3,
\\end{matrix}
```
yields the output ``g: \\{x \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid 1 \\le x \\le 7  \\} \\rightarrow
\\mathbb{R}``, which when visualized as a digital image, is equal to

```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{3} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}
\\end{matrix}}.
```

The interpretation of the convolution operation is analogous to correlation,
except that the filter ``w`` has been rotated by 180 degrees. In particular,

```math
\\begin{matrix}
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\\\
3 & 2 & 1  &  & & & & & \\\\
& 3 & 2 & 1  &  & & & &  \\\\
& & 3 & 2 & 1  &  & & &  \\\\
& & & 3 & 2 & 1  &  & &  \\\\
& & & & 3 & 2 & 1  &  &  \\\\
& & & & & 3 & 2 & 1  &  \\\\
& & & & & & 3 & 2 & 1,
\\end{matrix}
```

yields the output ``h: \\{x \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid 1 \\le x \\le 7  \\} \\rightarrow \\mathbb{R}`` equal to

```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{matrix}
\\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{3} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}
\\end{matrix}}.
```

Instead of rotating the filter mask, one could instead rotate ``f`` and still
obtained the same convolution result. In fact, the conventional notation for
convolution indicates that ``f`` is flipped and not ``w``. If ``w`` is
symmetric, then convolution and correlation give the same outcome.

 ### Two-dimensional illustration
 For a two-dimensional example, suppose the filter ``w:\\{-1, 0 ,1\\} \\times
 \\{-1,0,1\\} \\rightarrow \\mathbb{R}``  has coefficients

```math
 \\begin{matrix}
 \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{3} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{4} & \\boxed{5} & \\boxed{6} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{7} & \\boxed{8} & \\boxed{9}
 \\end{matrix},
```
 and consider a two-dimensional discrete unit impulse function

```math
 f:\\{x \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid 1 \\le x \\le 7  \\} \\times  \\{y \\in \\mathbb{Z} \\mid 1 \\le y \\le 7  \\}\\rightarrow \\{ 0,1\\}
```

 that has been padded with zeros:

```math
 \\boxed{
 \\begin{matrix}
   0 &        0  &        0  &        0   &        0  &        0  &   0  \\\\ \\\\
   0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} &   0  \\\\ \\\\
   0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} &   0 \\\\ \\\\
   0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{1}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} &   0 \\\\ \\\\
   0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} &   0 \\\\ \\\\
   0 & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} &   0 \\\\ \\\\
   0 &        0  &        0  &        0   &        0  &        0  &   0
 \\end{matrix}}.
```
 The correlation operation ``w(x,y) \\star f(x,y)``  yields the output

```math
 \\boxed{
 \\begin{matrix}
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} &  \\boxed{9} & \\boxed{8} & \\boxed{7} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} &  \\boxed{6} & \\boxed{5} & \\boxed{4} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} &  \\boxed{3} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}  & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}
 \\end{matrix}},
```
 whereas the convolution operation ``w(x,y) \\ast f(x,y)`` produces

```math
 \\boxed{
 \\begin{matrix}
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{1} & \\boxed{2} & \\boxed{3} & \\boxed{0}\\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{4} & \\boxed{5} & \\boxed{6} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{7} & \\boxed{8} & \\boxed{9} & \\boxed{0} \\\\ \\\\
 \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0} & \\boxed{0}
 \\end{matrix}}.
```

## Discrete convolution and correlation as matrix multiplication
Discrete convolution and correlation operations can also be formulated as a
matrix multiplication, where one of the inputs is converted to a [Toeplitz](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toeplitz_matrix)
matrix, and the other is represented as a column vector. For example, consider a
function ``f:\\{x \\in \\mathbb{N} \\mid 1 \\le x \\le M \\} \\rightarrow \\mathbb{R}``
and a filter ``w: \\{s \\in \\mathbb{N} \\mid  -k_1 \\le s \\le k_1  \\} \\rightarrow
\\mathbb{R}``. Then the matrix multiplication

```math
\\begin{bmatrix}
w(-k_1) 	&  0	    & \\ldots	& 0		   & 0			\\\\
\\vdots 	& w(-k_1) 	& \\ldots	& \\vdots  & 0	        \\\\
w(k_1) 	    & \\vdots   & \\ldots	& 0		   & \\vdots    \\\\
0 	    	& w(k_1)	& \\ldots   & w(-k_1)  & 0		    \\\\
0 	        & 0		    & \\ldots	& \\vdots  & w(-k_1)	\\\\
\\vdots     & \\vdots	& \\ldots	& w(k_1)   & \\vdots	\\\\
0           & 0         & 0			& 0		   & w(k_1)
\\end{bmatrix}
\\begin{bmatrix}
f(1) \\\\
f(2) \\\\
f(3) \\\\
\\vdots \\\\
f(M)
\\end{bmatrix}
```
is equivalent to the convolution ``w(s) \\ast f(x)`` assuming that the border of
``f(x)`` has been padded with zeros.

To represent multidimensional convolution as matrix multiplication one
reshapes the multidimensional arrays into column vectors and proceeds in an
analogous manner. Naturally, the result of the matrix multiplication will need
to be reshaped into an appropriate multidimensional array.

# Options
The following subsections describe valid options for the function arguments in
more detail.

## Choices for `r`
You can dispatch to different implementations by passing in a resource `r`
as defined by the [ComputationalResources](https://github.com/timholy/ComputationalResources.jl) package.
For example,

```julia
    imfilter(ArrayFireLibs(), img, kernel)
```
would request that the computation be performed on the GPU using the
ArrayFire libraries.

## Choices for `T`

Optionally, you can control the element type of the output image by
passing in a type `T` as the first argument.

## Choices for `img`

You can specify a one, two or multidimensional array defining your image.

## Choices for `kernel`

The `kernel[0,0,..]` parameter corresponds to the origin (zero displacement) of
the kernel; you can use `centered` to place the origin at the array center, or
use the OffsetArrays package to set `kernel`'s indices manually. For example, to
filter with a random *centered* 3x3 kernel, you could use either of the
following:

    kernel = centered(rand(3,3))
    kernel = OffsetArray(rand(3,3), -1:1, -1:1)

The `kernel` parameter can be specified as an array or as a "factored kernel", a
tuple `(filt1, filt2, ...)` of filters to apply along each axis of the image. In
cases where you know your kernel is separable, this format can speed processing.
Each of these should have the same dimensionality as the image itself, and be
shaped in a manner that indicates the filtering axis, e.g., a 3x1 filter for
filtering the first dimension and a 1x3 filter for filtering the second
dimension. In two dimensions, any kernel passed as a single matrix is checked
for separability; if you want to eliminate that check, pass the kernel as a
single-element tuple, `(kernel,)`.


## Choices for `border`
At the image edge, `border` is used to specify the padding which will be used
to extrapolate the image beyond its original bounds. As an indicative example
of each option the results of the padding are illustrated on an image consisting of
a row of six pixels which are specified alphabetically: ``\\boxed{a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f}``.
We show the effects of padding only on the left and right border, but analogous
consequences hold for the top and bottom border.

### `"replicate"` (default)

The border pixels extend beyond the image boundaries.
```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{array}{l|c|r}
  a\\, a\\, a\\, a  &  a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f & f \\, f \\, f \\, f
\\end{array}
}
```
See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `"circular"`

The border pixels wrap around. For instance, indexing beyond the left border
returns values starting from the right border.
```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{array}{l|c|r}
  c\\, d\\, e\\, f  &  a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f & a \\, b \\, c \\, d
\\end{array}
}
```
See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `"symmetric"`
The border pixels reflect relative to a position between pixels. That is, the
border pixel is omitted when mirroring.
```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{array}{l|c|r}
  e\\, d\\, c\\, b  &  a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f & e \\, d \\, c \\, b
\\end{array}
}
```
See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `"reflect"`
The border pixels reflect relative to the edge itself.
```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{array}{l|c|r}
  d\\, c\\, b\\, a  &  a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f & f \\, e \\, d \\, c
\\end{array}
}
```
See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `Fill(m)`
The border pixels are filled with a specified value ``m``.
```math
\\boxed{
\\begin{array}{l|c|r}
  m\\, m\\, m\\, m  &  a \\, b \\, c \\, d \\, e \\, f & m \\, m \\, m \\, m
\\end{array}
}
```
See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `Inner()`
Indicate that edges are to be discarded in filtering, only the interior of the
result is to be returned.

See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)

### `NA()`
Choose filtering using "NA" (Not Available) boundary conditions. This
is most appropriate for filters that have only positive weights, such
as blurring filters.

See also: [`Pad`](@ref), [`padarray`](@ref), [`Inner`](@ref), [`NA`](@ref)  and
[`NoPad`](@ref)


## Choices for `alg`
The `alg` parameter allows you to choose the particular algorithm: `FIR()`
(finite impulse response, aka traditional digital filtering) or `FFT()`
(Fourier-based filtering). If no choice is specified, one will be chosen based
on the size of the image and kernel in a way that strives to deliver good
performance. Alternatively you can use a custom filter type, like
[`KernelFactors.IIRGaussian`](@ref).

# Examples
The following subsections highlight some common use cases.

## Convolution versus correlation

```julia

# Create a two-dimensional discrete unit impulse function.
f = fill(0,(9,9));
f[5,5] = 1;

# Specify a filter coefficient mask and set the center of the mask as the origin.
w = centered([1 2 3; 4 5 6 ; 7 8 9]);

#=
 The default operation of `imfilter` is correlation.  By reflecting `w` we
 compute the convolution of `f` and `w`.  `Fill(0,w)` indicates that we wish to
 pad the border of `f` with zeros. The amount of padding is automatically
 determined by considering the length of w.
=#
correlation = imfilter(f,w,Fill(0,w))
convolution = imfilter(f,reflect(w),Fill(0,w))

```

## Miscellaneous border padding options
```julia
# Example function values f, and filter coefficients w.
f = reshape(1.0:81.0,9,9)
w = centered(reshape(1.0:9.0,3,3))

# You can designate the type of padding by specifying an appropriate string.
imfilter(f,w,"replicate")
imfilter(f,w,"circular")
imfilter(f,w,"symmetric")
imfilter(f,w,"reflect")

# Alternatively, you can explicitly use the Pad type to designate the padding style.
imfilter(f,w,Pad(:replicate))
imfilter(f,w,Pad(:circular))
imfilter(f,w,Pad(:symmetric))
imfilter(f,w,Pad(:reflect))

# If you want to pad with a specific value then use the Fill type.
imfilter(f,w,Fill(0,w))
imfilter(f,w,Fill(1,w))
imfilter(f,w,Fill(-1,w))

#=
  Specify 'Inner()' if you want to retrieve the interior sub-array of f for which
  the filtering operation is defined without padding.
=#
imfilter(f,w,Inner())
```

image is computed---you can use this fact to select just a specific
region of interest, although be aware that the input `img` might still
get padded.  Alteratively, explicitly provide the indices `inds` of
`imgfilt` that you want to calculate, and use `NoPad` boundary
conditions. In such cases, you are responsible for supplying
appropriate padding: `img` must be indexable for all of the locations
needed for calculating the output. This syntax is best-supported for
FIR filtering; in particular, that that IIR filtering can lead to
results that are inconsistent with respect to filtering the entire
array.

### FIR filtering

"""
    imfilter!(::AbstractResource, imgfilt, img, kernel, NoPad(), [inds=axes(imgfilt)])

Filter an array `img` with kernel `kernel` by computing their
correlation, storing the result in `imgfilt`, defaulting to a finite-impulse
response (FIR) algorithm. Any necessary padding must have already been
supplied to `img`. If you want padding applied, instead call

    imfilter!([r::AbstractResource,] imgfilt, img, kernel, border)

with a specific `border`, or use

    imfilter!(imgfilt, img, kernel, [Algorithm.FIR()])

for default padding.

If `inds` is supplied, only the elements of `imgfilt` with indices in
the domain of `inds` will be calculated. This can be particularly
useful for "cascaded FIR filters" where you pad over a larger area and
then calculate the result over just the necessary/well-defined region
at each successive stage.

### FFT filtering

"""
    imfilter!(::AbstractResource{FFT}, imgfilt, img, kernel, NoPad())

Filter an array `img` with kernel `kernel` by computing their
correlation, storing the result in `imgfilt`, using a fast Fourier
transform (FFT) algorithm. Any necessary padding must have already
been applied to `img`. If you want padding applied, instead call

    imfilter!(::AbstractResource{FFT}, imgfilt, img, kernel, border)

with a specific `border`, or use

    imfilter!(imgfilt, img, kernel, Algorithm.FFT())

for default padding.

    imfilter!(r::AbstractResource, imgfilt, img, kernel::TriggsSdika, dim::Integer, border)

Filter an array `img` with a Triggs-Sdika infinite impulse response
(IIR) `kernel`, storing the result in `imgfilt`. Unlike the `FIR` and
`FFT` algorithms, this version is safe for inplace operations, i.e.,
`imgfilt` can be the same array as `img`.

Either specify one kernel per dimension (as a tuple), or a particular
dimension `dim` along which to filter. If you exhaust `kernel`s before
you run out of array dimensions, the remaining dimension(s) will not
be filtered.

With Triggs-Sdika filtering, the only border options are `NA()`,
`"replicate"`, or `Fill(value)`.
