A group of MIT researchers believe they’ve found a way to speed up audio, video, and image compression by improving on the Fourier Transform. They say the new algorithm is up to ten times faster than ...

Researchers have developed a new algorithm that, in a large range of practically important cases, improves on the fast Fourier transform. Under some circumstances, the improvement can be dramatic -- a ...

In January, four MIT researchers showed off a replacement for one of the most important algorithms in computer science. Dina Katabi, Haitham Hassanieh, Piotr Indyk, and Eric Price have created a ...

Sparse Fourier Transform (SFT) algorithms constitute a transformative approach to spectral analysis by leveraging the inherent sparsity of signals in the frequency domain. In contrast to the ...

The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an implementation of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) using a divide-and-conquer approach. A DFT can transform any discrete signal, such as an image, to and ...

In this video from PyData Seattle 2015, William Cox from Distil Networks presents: An Intuitive Introduction to the Fourier Transform and FFT. The “fast fourier transform” (FFT) algorithm is a ...
