The function is much faster than Matlab's native (dct, idct, dct2, idct2). It also allows N-D (multidimensional) input.

Example:
x=randn(100,200,300);

y=mirt_dctn(x); % forward DCT
x=mirt_idctn(y); % inverse DCT

Version Published Release Notes
1.5.0.0

I have made it even faster by using only fft, without ifft, for both forward and inverse dct.

1.4.0.0

Corrected a bug with processing of 1D row vectors. Now it's as fast as with column vectors (and much faster then 1D Matlab's dct, idct)

1.3.0.0

added a screenshot of computational times of mirt_dctn and mirt_idctn vs Matlab's native (dct,idct,dct2,idct2).
