Calculating similarity between two signal plots

I have two plots, each having frequency as x-axis and Gain as y-axis. By taking one data set as a reference I have to calculate similarity between them. The graphs have same values on the x-axis and ...

Correlation between 2 functions

I have a periodical function $f(x)$ that is sampled in time, at a rate of 1 millisecond. Together with this, I also have a second function $t(x)$. I want to find the correlations between periods ...

Implement average as correlation

I have a MxN image matrix in, and need to get out matrix out size MxN as follows: Each point out[i,j] is the average of all in[i,j] inside a window size WxW (if boundary allows). For example if W=10 ...
