Talk:Digital transform

349:"Dolby Digital Transform coding", "the digital transform theory", "digital transform matrix", and verb forms like in "IP and digital transform television", but nothing called a "digital transform". Or if you found it, show it to us. There's the mistitled patent "Device for computing a digital transform of a signal" that's all about computing discrete transforms. Many things are digital, but digital transform is not anything. 21: 205:
If you have to rely on the patent language "a first intermediate digital transform signal" and "a second intermediate digital transform signal", you're digging pretty deep. And they're still not "digital transforms". It has meaning only within the context of that particular patent; or perhaps not

Given the discussions at the AfD and above, I still think a disamb page is better than a redirect. If someone looks up digital transform, they are likely confused on what they want to research. Therefore, it seems to me to be better to give them a list of options to choose from instead of assuming
311:
I still wonder why you think someone will be looking for "digital transform". Is there any reason to think that either a disambig or a redirect is useful? I've found that deleting redirects is nearly impossible, so I don't see this as progress unless you can find a good reason for it. Who would
348:
Yes, I think you invented it, from a random bigram. Your link shows "digital-transform spectroscopy", "Digital transform processing", "The Digital Transform Machine", "Digital Transform Spectrometer", "digital transform mode", "Digital transform-based algorithms", "frequecy-digital transform",

I hadn't noticed your "digital transformation" search link above. Same deal there. Two fairly generic terms, digital and transformation, sometimes used together in various contexts. No sign of a topic among things like "analog-to-digital tranformation", "the digital transformation in the

From the search links posted here, it does appear to be a term that is used in literature. The question is, what does it mean? I have no answer but it seems a bit premature for an editor to put up a page without having an a grasp of that himself; ususally we use
565:
And most sources that talk about such things don't mention "digital transform" at all. Besides being essentially generic and meaningless, it's also rather uncommon compared to "discrete transform", which is itself rare compared to "Fourier transform". See
83:
Digital transform is not sampling, not at all. It is a permutation of a sequence of samples that are already collected. Once the sampling is done, anything can be done to the samples themselves, the data, and a digital transform is one of those things.
485:
I tagged the two referred topics as dubious, because neither is likely to every be referred to as "digital transform". I'd remove these, but then we'd be left with an empty article. Better to just delete it, no?

even there, since the terms only appear in the claims, the intro, and the brief description, without definition or clarification of what they signify.

Why do they seem accurate to you. Did you look at the book search results, and try to find uses of these meanings? I looked, but I didn't find...

I've proposed deletion, since it was de-prodded. Can anyone suggest a reason to not delete it, after seeing the discussion above?

Given that someone decided we can't delete this article, the only remaining sensible choice is to put it back to the redirect to

I'll repeat my earlier observation that none of the 3 linked articles contain the phrase "digital transform". I am dubious. --

The words do appear together in sources, but look at what they say; none that I find indicate that there's a topic there.

It is true that redirects don't get deleted. It is also true that they don't really get in the way of anything. --
593: 290: 516: 596:, since that's presumably at least sort of related to what someone is supposed thinking of if they look up 600:. So I did that. And then it got reverted saying we need to talk about it more here. So here we go... 180: 128: 89: 20: 512: 235:

In any case, feel free to give what you think "correct" definition of the quite common term.

No. The meanings provided seem quite accurate and so the
