Abstract

A method is presented for locating a jump discontinuity in an otherwise-smooth function from its first few Fourier coefficients. It is based on a statistical model for otherwise-smooth functions and Bayes estimation, similar to and based on the work in [3]. Numerical results are presented, showing respectable performance, and comparing it to the jump locating algorithm of [1].
