Outline:
0:37 - Overview of graph signal processing
4:25 - Local filters
5:59 - Review of graphs
8:09 - Adjacency matrix
9:46 - Matrix representation of local linear filters
12:50 - Support of a matrix
14:25 - Motivation of distributed and local filters
16:04 - Review of Fourier transform in classical signal processing
23:08 - Abstract view of Fourier transform as projection of signal to an orthogonal complete basis
29:00 - Fourier bases are eigen-functions of the shift operator
33:00 - For directed path graph, shift matrix is the same as the adjacency matrix
37:40 - Generalize of shift matrix idea to non-path and undirected graphs
39:29 - Graph Fourier transform
44:40 - Low-pass/high-pass/band-pass filter
47:57 - Other choices of shift matrices
Correction:
3:35 - I didn't distinguish local filters from distributed filters and it is not quite precise. Local filters are more restrictive (only take inputs from neighbors) and can be considered as building blocks of distributed filters. Please watch for more precise definition.
48:16 - Laplacian matrix should be D - A instead.
