    Understanding the Variables of the FT and DTFT: Intuition and Differences

    Could someone explain the intuition behind the variables of the FT and DTFT? Do I understand it correctly ? For FT being X(f), I understand that f is a possible argument the frequency, as in number of cycles per second. FT can be alternatively parameterized by \omega = 2 \pi f which...

    I Probability Notation Arguments: Confusion & Definition

    There is some confusion regarding notation of the arguments of a probability distribution. For example, MLE is defined as estimating the distrubution that gives the maximum probability of the observations x_i given the distribution parameters, p(x|\theta) . However my instructor stressed that...

    I Eigenvalue as a generalization of frequency

    Thanks. Did so, I don't understand how it's related to frequency though. Rotations per time would.

    I Eigenvalue as a generalization of frequency

    Hello everyone. I understand the concept of eigenvalues and eigenvectors, using usually a geometric intuition, that a eigenvectors of a matrix M are stretched by the corresponding eigenvalue, when transformed through M. My professor said that eigenvalues represent a generalization of the...
