ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented method filters input data with a kernel filter. A kernel filter is defined, and a set of unique filter coefficients for the kernel filter are determined. A linkage set is constructed for each unique filter coefficient such that the linkage set includes relative links to positions in the kernel filter that have identical filter coefficients, and in which each relative link is an inverse of the position of the unique filter coefficient. Each input data point is processed by multiply values on which the kernel filter is centered by each of the unique filter coefficients, and adding results of the multiplying to the corresponding output data points as referenced by the relative links.
