From left to right: Original, noisy (PSNR: 20.02 dB), bilateral filter in the pixel domain (PSNR: 26.23 dB), and bilateral filter in the graph frequency domain (PSNR: 27.14 dB). Both bilateral filters use the same parametersFigure 1.4. Framework of graph filter bank
3 Chapter 2Figure 2.1. The different choices of graph lead to different representations of the same signal. The signal forms a smooth representation on the graph (a) as its values vary slowly along the edges of the graph, and it mainly consists of low-frequency components in the graph spectral domain (b). The representation of the same signal is less smooth on the graph (c), which consists of both low and high frequency components in the graph spectral domain (d).

Diffusion processes on the graph defined by a heat diffusion kernel (top right) and a graph shift operator (bottom right). Figure from (Dong et al. 2019) with permission.

Each component is a heat diffusion process (e−τL) at time τ that has started from different network nodes. The size and the color of each ball indicates the value of the signal at each vertex of the graph. Figure from Thanou et al. (2017) with permission.

Separable and non-separable transforms: (Left) For an N × N block, separable transforms are composed of two (possibly distinct) N ×N transforms, Urow and Ucol, applied to rows and columns of the block. (Right) Non-separable transforms apply a N2×N2 linear transformation using UFigure 4.2. Building blocks of a typical image/video encoder and decoder consisting of three main steps, which are (i) prediction, (ii) transformation, and (iii) quantization and entropy coding. This figure is adapted from Figure 1 in Egilmez et al. (2020a)Figure 4.3. Illustration of spectral transform design methodology. Traditional methods use a sample covariance to derive an approximation of KLT (sample KLT). This chapter focuses on approaches to find a graph Laplacian from data for designing GFTs (whose steps are represented by red arrows).

Filled vertices correspond to reference pixels obtained (a) from neighboring blocks and (b) from other frames via motion compensation. Unfilled vertices denote the pixels to be predicted and then transform coded. This figure is adapted from Figure 3 in Egilmez et al.
