Hadamard Transforms

The Hadamard matrix and Hadamard transform are fundamental problem-solving tools in a wide spectrum of scientific disciplines and technologies, such as communication systems, signal and image processing (signal representation, coding, filtering, recognition, and watermarking), digital logic (Boolean function analysis and synthesis), and fault-tolerant system design. Hadamard Transforms brings together different topics concerning current developments in Hadamard matrices, transforms, and their applications. Each chapter begins with the basics of the theory, progresses to more advanced topics, and then discusses cutting-edge implementation techniques. The book covers a wide range of problems related to these matrices/transforms, formulates open questions, and points the way to potential advancements.


Hadamard Transforms is suitable for a wide variety of audiences, including graduate students in electrical and computer engineering, mathematics, or computer science. Readers are not presumed to have a sophisticated mathematical background, but some experience is helpful.
