Apply DFT matrix along each axis of 3D array in NumPy?

问题

I can first obtain the DFT matrix of a given size, say n by

import numpy as np
n = 64
D = np.fft.fft(np.eye(n))

The FFT is of course just a quick algorithm for applying D to a vector:

x = np.random.randn(n)
ft1 = np.dot(D,x)
print( np.abs(ft1 - fft.fft(x)).max() )
# prints near double precision roundoff

The 2D FFT can be obtained by applying D to both the rows and columns of a matrix:

x = np.random.randn(n,n)
ft2 = np.dot(x, D.T) # Apply D to rows.
ft2 = np.dot(D, ft2) # Apply D to cols.
print( np.abs(ft2 - fft.fft2(x)).max() )
# near machine round off again

How do I compute this analogously for the 3 dimensional Discrete Fourier Transform?

I.e.,

x = np.random.randn(n,n,n)
ft3 = # dot operations using D and x
print( np.abs(ft3 - fft.fftn(x)).max() )
# prints near zero

Essentially, I think I need to apply D to each column vector in the volume, then each row vector in the volume, and finally each "depth vector". But I'm not sure how to do this using dot.

You can use the einsum expression to perform the transformation on each index:

x = np.random.randn(n, n, n)
ft3 = np.einsum('ijk,im->mjk', x, D)
ft3 = np.einsum('ijk,jm->imk', ft3, D)
ft3 = np.einsum('ijk,km->ijm', ft3, D)
print(np.abs(ft3 - np.fft.fftn(x)).max())
1.25571216554e-12

This can also be written as a single NumPy step:

ft3 = np.einsum('ijk,im,jn,kl->mnl', ft3, D, D, D, optimize=True)

Without the optimize argument (available in NumPy 1.12+) it will be very slow however. You can also do each of the steps using dot, but it requires a bit of reshaping and transposing. In NumPy 1.14+ the einsum function will automatically detect the BLAS operations and do this for you.
