Abstract
Different fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithms for hardware implementation have been considered. We propose an implementation whereby two radix-N1/2passes are carried out in parallel and in which each N1/2-point transform is carried out via a serial input parallel output transform circuit. The processing rate is one clock cycle per input point for the N-point transform regardless of the value of N chosen. The circuit is being implemented with TTL logic and will be used to perform spatial frequency domain filtering on two dimensional infrared camera images in real time; real time meaning processing between frame display.

Optimizing the Fast Fourier Transform Using Mixed Precision on Tensor Core Hardware

TL;DR: An algorithm that dynamically splits the input single precision dataset into two half precision sets at the lowest level, uses half precision multiplication, and recombines the result at a later step is developed, paving the way for using tensor cores for high precision inputs.

TL;DR: In this article, the negative effect of twin structure and the positive effect of dislocations on the coercivity were clarified in a systematic experimental study of L10-MnAl alloys, because the former defect can induce the nucleation of reversal domain and the latter can act as a pinning center.

A serial minded FFT

TL;DR: The possibly unexpected conclusion is made that the FFT implementation using parallel arithmetic units is more efficient in terms of speed and probably design effort and hardware, than one using high radix algorithms.
