I Googled around a bit and didn't find anything on political concerns other than the GPL thing (which would cover linking, not reimplementation of math). Is that the political concern in question or is there also something else?
- enriquto 8y agoYes, I was referring to that. They refuse to use the standard and state-of-the-art FFTW3 library because it's distributed under the GPL. (Actually, it's dual-licensed GPL/commercial).
- AstralStorm 8y agoFFTW3 is where near close to state of the art anymore actually... At least on a few platforms, where GPGPU is available.
- enriquto 8y agoin any case it's an order of magnitude faster than scipy's implementation. Can you point me to a good free software implementation of the fft in gpu?
