I laughed out loud when he said “and this makes sense because of the Fourier transform” cause I thought he was going to dumb it down a bunch. Love how this channel is like a “more mature” math channel where not everything has to be explained at a middle school level. Thanks!

Nyquist-Shannon theorem is so cool! It lets one connect discrete and continuous signals through their information density, which provides very deep insight. You can also generalize it to signals which do not have compactly supported frequency spectrum like gaussians! And there is a surprising connection to the study of minimal length in quantum mechanics!

Because he's focusing on one subject. He doesn't need to do a full course. He can spend a huge amount of time preparing 11 minute video. Professors cannot do that.

@johnchessant3012 2 месяца назад

this is one of those things that seems simple but is mindbendingly cool. like the 44.1 kHz thing, basically it's saying if we know the signal at these few isolated points, then we know what it is at all times, _unless_ it contains frequencies higher than half of 44.1 kHz, in which case humans can't hear them anyway

@untodesu 2 месяца назад

Actually this repeating of frequency domain can help you to process higher-frequency signals using your regular PC sound card's ADC: sampling essentially acts as a frequency mixer in a heterodyne receiver with a lot more of "collateral" bands. Though I don't really know whether motherboards have a low pass filters on mic inputs or not

Hi, How can I contact with you?

@user24242 2 месяца назад

I've always been a little confused about whether 2f is enough, or if strictly greater than 2f is required. At 3:50 you say "faster" and use a greater-than symbol, but at 9:58 you say "at least" while still showing a greater-than. I get that in the real world the sampling frequency is never gonna be exact anyway so you need a decent margin (and you showed CD audio being 44100 not 44k as an example of that), but in theory, can I get away with 2f or do I need 2f+epsilon?

@voytechj 2 месяца назад

In theory sampling at 2f is enough, in practice before ADC we need analog low pass anti-aliasing filter to get rid of frequencies >f. If you don't do that, noises from bats, etc. will "alias" to lower frequencies that can be audible by humans, which is bad. Analog filters are not perfect, 20kHz low pass filter still passes higher frequencies but with lower amplitude. So, we have to sample much higher to combat aliasing from imperfection of analog filters.

@rsa5991 2 месяца назад

Sampling at exactly 2f is sometimes enough, but in most cases isn't. It depends on the phase difference between the samples and the frequency at f. If the samples just happen to fall on peaks of "f" - the signal will be recovered exactly. However, if the samples fall in any other place - you get the frequency at "f" with a reduced amplitude. And if they fall exactly on zeros - the frequency at "f" will be lost. Of course, that's assuming we have a perfect low-pass filter to recover the signal.

@Mark-dc1su 2 месяца назад

Shannon-Nyquist can actually be beaten with compressed sensing!

@juliasteam2077 2 месяца назад

Is this aliasing the same thing as in computer graphics (anti aliasing)?

@bedro_0 2 месяца назад

in both cases, aliasing refers to imprecision due to insufficient sampling. A pixel is also one sample of an image in 2D space, and aliasing happens due to a lack of pixels. Maybe someone with a little more knowledge can correct or add on this idk

@ar3g0n810 2 месяца назад

@MinMax-kc8uj Месяц назад

It is nice to spend all my free time learning this stuff, but I'm forgetting it faster than I'm learning it. I'm looking at my math worksheets from 10 years ago and I have to figure it all out again. I think I'll leave this to those autistic people that have a freaky ability to absorb it all. I'll never be as good as they are. I'm going back to playing video games.

@ivanrodionov9724 2 месяца назад

Great video, however I feel you missed an important point, the shannon theorem is a sufficient but not nessesary condition for reconstruction is only true for sinusoidal interpolation. In different bases things get very different, this is what compressed sensing works with.
