Over at Quanta Magazine [Shalma Wegsman] asks What Is the Fourier Transform? [Shalma] begins by telling you a little about Joseph Fourier, the French mathematician with an interest in heat propagation ...
Fourier analysis provides a powerful framework for decomposing functions into sums or integrals of sinusoidal components, thereby enabling the study of frequency content in signals. In tandem, ...
Built upon the ubiquitous Fourier transform, the mathematical tools known as wavelets allow unprecedented analysis and understanding of continuous signals. In an increasingly data-driven world, ...
