Hi there i'm wondering is there any way to convert simple 3x3 convolution kernel like:
[1,2,1]
[2,4,2]
[1,2,1]
to ImageMagick FTT convolution/deconvolution. In IM ftt i saw that there authors for kernel use image with the same size as input image with circle filled of solid white color or white tone. In my app i'm using 3x3 kernel where user sets kernel values>0 and i'd like to transform it to IM white circle filled of toned white depending on my kernel values.

NOTE: for such a small filter size, it is really a waste of effort to do it in the Fourier domain.


Nevertheless, if you really want to do this, you will need to use IM in HDRI mode

input image:


# create (binomial low pass) filter -- note the center must be shifted to the top left corner
convert \
\( xc:"gray(1)" xc:"gray(2)" xc:"gray(1)" +append \) \
\( xc:"gray(2)" xc:"gray(4)" xc:"gray(2)" +append \) \
\( xc:"gray(1)" xc:"gray(2)" xc:"gray(1)" +append \) \
-append \
-background black -extent 128x128 \
-auto-level \
-roll -1-1 \

# Do +FFT on both images, combine real and imaginary components appropriately for complex multiplication (see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/fourie ... ultiply_ri) and then +IFT and scale by inverse of mean of filter.


fact=`convert filter.png -format "%[fx:1/mean]" info:`
convert \
\( filter.png +fft \) \
\( lena2.jpg +fft \) \
\( -clone 0 -clone 2 -compose multiply -composite \) \
\( -clone 1 -clone 3 -compose multiply -composite \) \
\( -clone 4 -clone 5 +swap -compose minus -composite \) \
\( -clone 0 -clone 3 -compose multiply -composite \) \
\( -clone 1 -clone 2 -compose multiply -composite \) \
\( -clone 7 -clone 8 -compose plus -composite \) \
-delete 0-5,7,8 \
+ift -evaluate multiply $fact \

As of IM 6.8.7.1 with the new -complex mathematic function, the previous commands can be simplified to

fact=`convert filter.png -format "%[fx:1/mean]" info:`
imh convert \
\( filter.png +fft \) \
\( lena2.png +fft \) \
-complex multiply \
+ift -evaluate multiply $fact \

i've compiled IM to Quantum 8 bit ( i need 8 bit), set define to use HDRI 1, and add #define MAGICKCORE_FFTW_DELEGATE.
This configuration should be ok i think. I need so small kernel, becouse i'm developing application where user sets a kernel 3x3 or 5x5 manually and then with this kernel i'd like to do a deconvolution so thats why i'm going to use IM. I didn't find any way to do deconvolution on my own.

A simple convolution can be done using http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/convolve/

If you need to do deconvolution, then that would need to be done in the Fourier Domain.
