We propose a multi-dimensional (M-D) sparse Fourier transform inspired by the idea of the Fourier projection-slice theorem, called FPS-SFT. FPS-SFT extracts samples along lines (1-dimensional slices from an M-D data cube), which are…

A function $f : \mathbb{F}_2^n \to \mathbb{R}$ is $s$-sparse if it has at most $s$ non-zero Fourier coefficients. Motivated by applications to fast sparse Fourier transforms over $\mathbb{F}_2^n$, we study efficient algorithms for the…
