Can we perform correlation using convolution?

It turned out that correlation can be obtained by convolving the signals to be correlated, with one of them having its element order reversed, and then reversing the output of the convolution.

How do you find correlation using convolution?

The convolution and correlation are closely related. In order to obtain the crosscorrelation of two real signals 𝑥₁(𝑡) and 𝑥₂(𝑡), we multiply the signal 𝑥₁(𝑡) with function 𝑥₂(𝑡) displaced by τ units. Then, the area under the product curve is the cross correlation between the signals 𝑥₁(𝑡) and 𝑥₂(𝑡) at 𝑡 = 𝜏.

Is correlation same as convolution?

Convolution is just like correlation, except we flip over the filter before correlating. Figure 7. Convolution Operation in 1-D. In the case of 2D convolution, we flip the filter both horizontally and vertically.

What do you mean by convolution and correlation?

Correlation is measurement of the similarity between two signals/sequences. Convolution is measurement of effect of one signal on the other signal. The mathematical calculation of Correlation is same as convolution in time domain, except that the signal is not reversed, before the multiplication process.
