In signal processing, the adjoint filter mask h^{*} of a filter mask h is reversed in time and the elements are complex conjugated.[1][2][3]
(h^*)_k = \overline{h_{-k}}
Its name is derived from the fact that the convolution with the adjoint filter is the adjoint operator of the original filter, with respect to the Hilbert space \ell _{2} of the sequences in which the inner product is the Euclidean norm.
\langle h*x, y \rangle = \langle x, h^* * y \rangle
The autocorrelation of a signal x can be written as x^* * x.
Properties
{h^*}^* = h
(h*g)^* = h^* * g^*
(h\leftarrow k)^* = h^* \rightarrow k
