Interesting, perhaps that’s it... I’ve used FFTs a few times, but even FFTs have never been make or break in terms of getting a pipeline or analysis working wel

- cowboysauce 8y agoThe Fourier transform is actually linked with linear algebra. You can think of it as taking a vector in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space (your signal) and decomposing it into its components (the amplitudes of the frequencies).
- stephencanon 8y agoThe Fourier transform as used in practice in signal processing is ~always discrete, hence finite-dimensional. It's literally "just" a rotation with an especially nice decomposition that allows efficient multiplication.
- danharaj 8y agoA particular fft in practice may be discrete but the relation between fft's of different resolutions of the "same" signal hints at the infinite structure which bundles up all the finite subspaces into one conceptual object.
