Record number: 8, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The Fourier process is normally used to identify and remove systematic noise spikes, such as regular lines that may have been introduced by a faulty image collection device. The process works as a two-way operation. First the forward transform creates a pair of intermediate raster objects that reveal abnormal data variability. After the values in those raster objects have been edited to remove the data spikes, the inverse transformation creates a raster object with the same image as the original, but with lines or other noise removed. 3, record 8, English, - Fourier%20transform

Dans la pratique et avec la généralisation des techniques de numérisation, on remplace souvent la fonction dont on veut calculer la transformée de Fourier par un échantillonnage. L'intégrale de Fourier est alors remplacée par une somme finie appelée transformée de Fourier discrète. Des algorithmes, dont l'ensemble est appelée transformée de Fourier rapide (anglais Fast Fourier Transform - FFT), ont été mis au point, permettant de réduire le temps d'exécution du calcul d'une transformée de Fourier discrète. 4, record 9, French, - transform%C3%A9e%20de%20Fourier
