convolve functions or kernels on their domain.

Syntax

smoothed = conv(f, psi)

Description

For an MTEX object, conv(x, …) calls x.conv(…). Additional positional and keyword arguments are passed to that method unchanged. Its documentation specifies the accepted inputs, units, symmetry handling and optional outputs. Consult the corresponding method for the behaviour of a particular object type.

Signature

conv(x, *args, **kwargs)

Methods it calls

S1FunHarmonic smoothing by a kernel is one factor per mode
S1Kernel the convolution with another kernel on the circle: the coefficients multiplied
S2FunHarmonic convolve a spherical function with a kernel or another spherical function
S2Kernel the convolution with another kernel on the sphere or SO(3): the coefficients multiplied and divided by 2n+1, a kernel on the sphere
SO3FunCBF the convolution with a kernel psi, through the harmonic expansion
SO3FunHarmonic the convolution with another SO(3) function, a kernel, a function on the sphere or a vector of multipliers per degree, as conv(f, g)
SO3FunRBF the convolution with a kernel psi, again a kernel sum when psi is an SO(3) kernel, otherwise through the harmonic expansion
SO3Kernel convolution multiplies the coefficients and divides by 2n+1, on S2 when either factor is
