New Algorithms for Computing a Single Component of the Discrete Fourier Transform

This paper introduces the theory and hardware implementation of two new algorithms for computing a single component of the discrete Fourier transform. In terms of multiplicative complexity, both algorithms are more efficient, in general, than the well known Goertzel Algorithm.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, 1 table.

The Sexual Throughout the Body of the Tongue

In Fragment 19 of the Harvard Manuscripts, Saussure claims that difference, since it admits degrees, is an uncomfortable term. If anatomy as destiny (Freud, 1912, 1924) is more nuanced than one would like, since it also admits degrees, and anatomical difference does not mitigate the ultimate impossibility of conjugation between speaking beings (Lacan, 1991), how to think of the transit/translation between bodies and where to situate the differences that belong to them? In order to propose an answer, this paper starts from this hypothesis that it is advisable to develop this reflection about sexual difference a couple of feet above the waistline, foregrounding another organ (the tongue), what allows us to critically rethink the entanglement between gender and anatomy in psychoanalysis, in favor of the notion of style

Compactly Supported Wavelets Derived From Legendre Polynomials: Spherical Harmonic Wavelets

A new family of wavelets is introduced, which is associated with Legendre polynomials. These wavelets, termed spherical harmonic or Legendre wavelets, possess compact support. The method for the wavelet construction is derived from the association of ordinary second order differential equations with multiresolution filters. The low-pass filter associated with Legendre multiresolution analysis is a linear phase finite impulse response filter (FIR).Comment: 6 pages, 6 figures, 1 table In: Computational Methods in Circuits and Systems Applications, WSEAS press, pp.211-215, 2003.
