The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) remains a cornerstone of digital signal processing, underpinning applications from telecommunications to medical imaging. Modern FFT processors and architectures have ...

Every machine has its own way of communicating with its operator. Some send status emails, some illuminate, but most of them vibrate and make noise. If it hums happily, that’s usually a good sign, but ...

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 ...

(via Veritasium) The Fast Fourier Transform is used everywhere but it has a fascinating origin story that could have ended the nuclear arms race.
