Abstract
Computer software for and a method of calculating ring-wedge data from a digital image by performing a discrete Fourier transform of the digital image. A discrete autocorrelation, discrete cosine transform, and/or Hadamard transform is also preferably performed, together with providing the results to a neural network (most preferably a fully connected, three-layer, feed-forward neural network with sigmoidal activation functions) to perform pattern recognition on the data.
