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 ...

FFT-EM is an innovative method that represents a combination of FFT and EM techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The technique is often used to determine the interior and surface ...

For a large range of practically useful cases, MIT researchers find a way to increase the speed of one of the most important algorithms in the information sciences. The Fourier transform is one of the ...

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 ...

Specifications for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) often include a fast Fourier transform (FFT) plot, such as the one shown in the figure, for a 12-bit ADC with a single-frequency input signal. In ...

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 ...
