Which property makes 2D convolution commutative?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • B. Because the sum is reindexed by a change of variable

Explanation

Substituting the index k by m-k in the sum swaps the roles of image and kernel without changing the result. Symmetric kernels are not needed for this.

Review the concept: 2D convolution on images

2D convolution is the operation that combines an image \(f(x,y)\) with a kernel \(h(x,y)\) by sliding the kernel and summing products at each position.

\[(f*h)[m,n]=\sum_{k}\sum_{l} f[k,l]\,h[m-k,n-l]\]
