A new version is proposed for the Gram-Schmidt algorithm, the orthogonal procrustes algorithm and the sequential orthogonal procrustes algorithm for generating Hermite-Gaussian-like orthonormal eigenvectors for the discrete Fourier transform matrix F. This version is based on the direct utilization of the orthogonal projection matrices on the eigenspaces of matrix F rather than the singular value decomposition of those matrices for the purpose of generating initial orthonormal eigenvectors. The proposed version of the algorithms has the merit of achieving a significant reduction in the computation time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
