Motivated by the fact that in textures, there is usually a presence of strongly oriented harmonics, a representation which is both well-localised in frequency and orientation is desirable to efficiently describe such oriented harmonic features. Here we introduce a family of directional trigonometric bases for a bi-variate function which is defined as !#"%$ & '( )$+* ,-&% .% /.% where the 0 is a...
