Overview

This repository provides a MATLAB interface to the FFTW implementations of the discrete cosine transforms (DCT) and discrete sine transforms (DST). The functions are implemented in C++ as MATLAB mex functions.

MATLAB natively includes an interface to the complex-to-complex transforms in FFTW via the inbuilt functions fft, fft2, and fftn. However, MATLAB does not include an interface to the real-to-real transforms which correspond to discrete trigonometric transforms (DTTs). This library is intended to fill the gap.

Three functions are included: dtt1D, dtt2D, and dtt3D. These compute DTTs in 1D, 2D, and 3D. The function dtt1D can also perform 1D transformations over 2D arrays.

The type of DTT is specified by the input dtt_type, where 1 to 4 corresponds to DCTs, and 5 to 8 to DSTs. Currently, only double precisions transforms are supported, thus the input array must be in double precision.

The DTT functions in this library create the FFTW plan using FFTW_ESTIMATE, and then destroy the plan after execution. Consequently, the performance will not match that of the MATLAB inbuilt FFT functions which can re-use wisdom (see help fftw).

Compilation

The mex files can be compiled using compileDttMex, which calls mex. In many cases, the default paths will need to be changed. Open compileDttMex for further details on how to setup and compile.

Precompiled mex files for Windows and macOS are included in the repository. These have been compiled using MATLAB 2019b. The Windows mex functions were compiled using Windows 10 (1803) and Microsoft Visual C++ 2015. The macOS mex functions were compiled using macOS Catalina (10.15.3) and Xcode Clang++ (11.3.1).

Examples

An example of using dtt1D is included in the function gradientDTT1D. This computes a spectral gradient using any of the eight supported DTT symmetries, including an option for grid staggering. Several other example scripts are also included in the examples folder.
