The Laplacian operator uses the 2nd-order derivative, V²f = дх² to estimate the magnitude of the spatial variation at a point. High-frequency emphasis is a method based on the Laplacian for enhancing image quality, which can be modeled using the following equation: g=f-v²f (1) a) Given that the Laplacian operation is implemented as a spatial filter with the following mask: [1-2 1], derive the corresponding spatial-domain mask for computing g from equation 1. b) The mask computed in part a can be viewed as a linear filtering process. a. Derive the Discrete Fourier Transform of this filter b. Plot the resulting magnitude spectrum c. Determine the basic filter type (e.g., lowpass, highpass, bandpass, band-reject) The Laplacian operator uses the 2nd-order derivative, V²f = дх² to estimate the magnitude of the spatial variation at a point.
