NFFT – Nonequispaced FFT

Overview

NFFT is a software library, written in C, for computing non-equispaced fast
Fourier transforms and related variations. It implements the following
transforms:

  1. Non-equispaced fast Fourier transform (NFFT)

    • forward transform (NFFT), i.e. frequency to time/space domain
    • adjoint transform (adjoint NFFT), i.e. time/space to frequency domain
  2. Generalisations

    • to arbitrary nodes in time and frequency domain (NNFFT)
    • to real-valued data, i.e. (co)sine transforms, (NFCT, NFST)
    • to the sphere S^2 (NFSFT)
    • to the rotation group (NFSOFT)
    • to the hyperbolic cross (NSFFT)
  3. Generalised inverse transformations based on iterative methods, e.g. CGNR/CGNE

Some examples for application of these transforms are provided:

  1. Medical imaging

    • magnetic resonance imaging (mri)
    • computerised tomography (radon)
  2. Summation schemes

    • fast summation (fastsum)
    • fast Gauss transform (FGT)
    • singular kernels
    • zonal kernels
  3. polar FFT, discrete Radon transform, ridgelet transform

Detailed API documentation in HTML format can be found in
doc/html/index.html, if you are working from a release tarball.
When working from a source repository, the documentation can be
generated with Doxygen.

Building

The NFFT depends on the FFTW library, which is available for many Linux distros, Homebrew on macOS and MSYS2 on Windows. If you compile the FFTW yourself, it should be configured --enable-shared.

When working from a source repository, you need to run libtoolize and autoreconf first. A bash script to do this is provided.

./bootstrap.sh

The rest of the build process is standard.

./configure --enable-all --enable-openmp [add options as necessary, see below]

Alternatively, you might run the configure script for Matlab.

./configure --enable-all --enable-openmp --with-matlab=/path/to/matlab

Here are some useful optional flags for ./configure:

  • --enable-all specifies that all modules should be compiled,
  • --enable-openmp enables the multicore support and
  • --enable-julia specifies that the julia interface will be compiled.
  • --with-matlab=path/to/matlab specifies a path of Matlab, and
  • --with-octave=path/to/octave does the same for GNU Octave.
  • For a list of all available options, run ./configure --help.

Build the software.

make

Optionally, unit tests may be run.

make check

Optionally, install NFFT on your system.

make install

If you find NFFT useful, we would be delighted to hear about what application
you are using NFFT for!
