To perform the filtering infrequency domain we perform multiplication of $(-1)^{x+y}$ why??

$\begingroup$ Do you mean why does that center the transform? Or do you mean why do we want to center the transform? $\endgroup$– AnonSubmitter85Feb 29, 2020 at 0:12

$\begingroup$ I mean 1. How that center the transform and 2. Why do we want to center the transform ?? $\endgroup$– vignesh babuFeb 29, 2020 at 13:44

Below 1D argumentation also explains the 2D case.
First consider the DTFT property for the pair $x[n] \longleftrightarrow X(e^{j\omega})$
$$ e^{j\omega_0 n} \cdot x[n] \longleftrightarrow X(e^{j(\omega - \omega_0)}) $$
Then recognise that $(-1)^n = e^{j \pi n} $ which yields:
$$ e^{j\pi n} \cdot x[n] \longleftrightarrow X(e^{j(\omega - \pi)}) $$
The effect is such that the spectrum $X(e^{j \omega})$ is centralized (shifted) into the $\omega = \pi$ frequency.
In 2D, the DTFT of the image is shifted into the central zone.

$\begingroup$ Can you answer why we center the transform in frequency domain filtering?? $\endgroup$ Feb 29, 2020 at 13:47

$\begingroup$ You don't have to center anything for spatial-domain filtering. But sometimes filter impulse responses are specified in a shifted way, then you need to shift to image transform as well to align the phases, especially if frequency domain filtering is applied. $\endgroup$– Fat32Feb 29, 2020 at 19:10
