Added dictionary decorrelation functions and test script for Letters paper.

function f = pwsmoothfield(n,var,alpha)
% PWSMOOTHFIELD(N,VAR,ALPHA)
%   Generate an image of piecewise smooth filtered white noise
%
%   N = sidelength of the field in pixels
%   VAR = variance of original white nose
%   ALPHA = fraction of FFT coefficents to keep
%
%   Returns an N-by-N array
