Receptive field sensitivity profiles of visual front-end cells in the LGN and V1 area in intact animals can be measured with increasing accuracy, both in the spatial and temporal domain. This urges the need for mathematical models. Scale-space theory, as a theory of (multiscale) apertures as operators on observed data, is concerned with the mathematical modeling of front-end visual system behav...

We introduce multi-scale filtering by the way of certain double convolution systems. We prove stability theorems for these systems and make connections with function theory in the poly-disc. Finally, we compare the framework developed here with the white noise space framework, within which a similar class of double convolution systems has been defined earlier.
