istft(data, window, opts)

Computes the Inverse Short-Time Fourier Transform of a tensor.

Returns a tensor of M time-domain frames of length fft_length.

See also: NxSignal.Windows, stft/3

Options

  • :fft_length - the DFT length that will be passed to Nx.fft/2. Defaults to :power_of_two.
  • :overlap_length - the number of samples for the overlap between frames. Defaults to half the window size.
  • :sampling_rate - the sampling rate $F_s$ in Hz. Defaults to 1000.
  • :scaling - nil, :spectrum or :psd.
    • :spectrum - each frame is multiplied by $\sum_{i} window[i]$.
    • nil - No scaling is applied.
    • :psd - each frame is multiplied by $\sqrt{F\_s\sum_{i} window[i]^2}$.

Examples

In general, istft/3 takes in the same parameters and window as the stft/3 that generated the spectrum. In the first example, we can notice that the reconstruction is mostly perfect, aside from the first sample.

This is because the Hann window only ensures perfect reconstruction in overlapping regions, so the edges of the signal end up being distorted.

iex> t = Nx.tensor([10, 10, 1, 0, 10, 10, 2, 20])
iex> w = NxSignal.Windows.hann(4)
iex> opts = [sampling_rate: 1, fft_length: 4]
iex> {z, _time, _freqs} = NxSignal.stft(t, w, opts)
iex> result = NxSignal.istft(z, w, opts)
iex> Nx.as_type(result, Nx.type(t))
#Nx.Tensor<
  s32[8]
  [0, 10, 1, 0, 10, 10, 2, 20]

Different scaling options are available (see stft/3 for a more detailed explanation). For perfect reconstruction, you want to use the same scaling as the STFT:

iex> t = Nx.tensor([10, 10, 1, 0, 10, 10, 2, 20])
iex> w = NxSignal.Windows.hann(4)
iex> opts = [scaling: :spectrum, sampling_rate: 1, fft_length: 4]
iex> {z, _time, _freqs} = NxSignal.stft(t, w, opts)
iex> result = NxSignal.istft(z, w, opts)
iex> Nx.as_type(result, Nx.type(t))

stft(data, window, opts \\ [])

Computes the Short-Time Fourier Transform of a tensor.

Returns the complex spectrum Z, the time in seconds for each frame and the frequency bins in Hz.

The STFT is parameterized through:

  • $k$: length of the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT)
  • $N$: length of each frame
  • $H$: hop (in samples) between frames (calculated as $H = N - \text{overlap\\_length}$)
  • $M$: number of frames
  • $x[n]$: the input time-domain signal
  • $w[n]$: the window function to be applied to each frame

$$ DFT(x, w) := \sum_{n=0}^{N - 1} x[n]w[n]e^\frac{-2 \pi i k n}{N} \\\\ X[m, k] = DFT(x[mH..(mH + N - 1)], w) $$

where $m$ assumes all values in the interval $[0, M - 1]$

  • :fft_length - the DFT length that will be passed to Nx.fft/2. Defaults to :power_of_two.
  • :overlap_length - the number of samples for the overlap between frames. Defaults to half the window size.

Functions: Windowing

as_windowed(tensor, opts \\ [])

Returns a tensor of K windows of length N

Options

  • :window_length - the number of samples in a window
  • :stride - The number of samples to skip between windows. Defaults to 1.
  • :padding - Padding mode, can be :reflect or a valid padding as per Nx.pad/3 over the input tensor's shape. Defaults to :valid. If :reflect or :same, the first window will be centered at the start of the signal. The padding is applied for the whole input, rather than individual windows. For :zeros, effectively each incomplete window will be zero-padded.

overlap_and_add(tensor, opts \\ [])

Performs the overlap-and-add algorithm over an {..., M, N}-shaped tensor, where M is the number of windows and N is the window size.

The tensor is zero-padded on the right so the last window fully appears in the result.

Options

  • :overlap_length - The number of overlapping samples between windows
  • :type - output type for casting the accumulated result. If not given, defaults to Nx.Type.to_complex/1 called on the input type.

Functions

czt(x, opts \\ [])

Chirp Z-Transform.

Evaluates the z-transform of x on a spiral contour in the z-plane, returning $M$ output points. Uses Bluestein's identity to express the sum as a convolution, giving $O((N+M)\log(N+M))$ complexity.

$$ X[k] = \sum_{n=0}^{N-1} x[n] \, A^{-n} \, W^{nk}, \quad k = 0, 1, \ldots, M-1 $$

When $A = 1$, $W = e^{-j2\pi/M}$, and $M = N$, the result is identical to the standard DFT.

See also: zoom_fft/4

Options

  • :output_length - number of output points $M$. Defaults to Nx.size(x).
  • :contour_ratio - contour ratio $W$ (complex scalar tensor). Defaults to $e^{-j2\pi/M}$, which gives the DFT.
  • :contour_start - contour starting point $A$ (complex scalar tensor). Defaults to $1$.

  [1.0-1.5893256e-8i, 0.99999994+0.0i, 1.0+1.5893256e-8i, 0.99999994+0.0i]
>

zoom_fft(x, f1, f2, opts \\ [])

Zoom FFT: high-resolution DFT over a narrow frequency band.

Computes $M$ output samples of the DFT concentrated in the normalised frequency range $[f_1, f_2]$. This is a thin wrapper around czt/2 that sets:

$$ A = e^{j2\pi f_1}, \quad W = e^{-j2\pi(f_2 - f_1)/M} $$

The output frequencies are $f_k = f_1 + k\,(f_2 - f_1)/M$ for $k = 0, \ldots, M-1$.

See also: czt/2

Arguments

  • x - input signal, shape {n}.
  • f1 - lower bound of the frequency range (normalised, 0 to 1).
  • f2 - upper bound of the frequency range (normalised, 0 to 1).

Options

  • :output_length - number of output points $M$. Defaults to Nx.size(x).
