Lecture 10 | The Fourier Transforms and its Applications

[chondestes]

Hey, he did get a haircut!

Sparkling clear lecture.

Does anyone know the website where you can get his notes. I wanted to look them over because this is the only topic on my actuarial exams syllabus that I don't feel very comfortable doing them. If not I will watch this a couple more times!

@jiggajake724 I tried to post the link of the course but youtube does not allow this (merchadising reasons) you can check on the first lecture, he addresses the website of the class there; you can download not only the notes but also the homeworks, and the exam; if you want to get an idea of how are the problems on this issue, and you can do this even if you do not have an stanford ID.

You have had hair cut as stated in your previous lecture !

Thanks; this helps me not only with the Fourier Transform but somehow I also had an "aha!" about the statistics as well. I am quite slow sometimes; I seem to pick out something at random and get stuck on it for no predictable reason. Perhaps it is related to that nail I drove through my head after watching "Ghostbusters" years ago, when I wanted to be just like Egon.....

its exp(-2*pi^2*s^2) in the end, I think.

Thanks Stanford University! I am extremely greatful for these lectures (have watched the first ten) and I am finally able to understand the basic concepts of Fourrier Series & Transforms, where they originally came from and what are some of their basic applications. If only all University lecturers tought their courses in this way! This is truly a gem...

Wow. I just noticed the Standford Logo has German writing in it which says: "Let the wind of truth blow." or something like that. I am Iranian and neither English nor German is my first language, but I grew up in Germany.

And this professor rocks man. He knows his stuff, reminds me on my accountant.

@kevinatucla

It means "The wind of freedom blows"

Thanks for that comment I am german and I didnt realize that before :)

[MarkVersteegh]

@kevinatucla Actually it's translated "the wind of freedom blows". But yes, this guy is really good.

[Ayplus]

Hmm. This is resembling more and more a statistics lecture.

[dankheads]

Brad Osgood is a 1 in 100 lecturer, he is so entertaining!

[noobmartin]

Yea, but it'd be an approximation, unless you'd include the infinite expansion.

[arklaren]

Fine but hi leave many parts of the parametric functions. Great.

excellent lecture :)
