The Fast Fourier Transform, Per Brinch Hansen Dec 1991

The Fast Fourier Transform, Per Brinch Hansen

Electrical Engineering and Computer Science - Technical Reports

This tutorial discusses the fast Fourier transform, which has numerous applications in signal and image processing. The FFT computes the frequency components of a signal that has been sampled at n points in O( n log n) time. We explain the FFT and illustrate it by examples and Pascal algorithms. We assume that you are familiar with elementary calculus.


Three--Dimensional Medical Imaging: Algorithms And Computer Systems, M. R. Stytz, G. Frieder, O. Frieder Jan 1991

Three--Dimensional Medical Imaging: Algorithms And Computer Systems, M. R. Stytz, G. Frieder, O. Frieder

College of Engineering and Computer Science - Former Departments, Centers, Institutes and Projects

This paper presents an introduction to the field of three-dimensional medical imaging It presents medical imaging terms and concepts, summarizes the basic operations performed in three-dimensional medical imaging, and describes sample algorithms for accomplishing these operations. The paper contains a synopsis of the architectures and algorithms used in eight machines to render three-dimensional medical images, with particular emphasis paid to their distinctive contributions. It compares the performance of the machines along several dimensions, including image resolution, elapsed time to form an image, imaging algorithms used in the machine, and the degree of parallelism used in the architecture. The paper concludes …
