""" Resampling layers ================= When working with neural operators, we often need to change the resolution of our data. For some architectures, like the FNO, this is handled automatically due to the resolution-invariant nature of the Fourier domain. However, for other architectures, like the U-Net, we need to explicitly upsample and downsample the data as it flows through the network. The ``neuralop.layers.resample`` function provides a convenient way to do this. In this example, we'll demonstrate how to use the ``resample`` function to upsample and downsample a sample from a Gaussian Random Field, which serves as a better visual tool than piecewise constant data for observing the effects of interpolation. For 1D and 2D inputs, the ``resample`` function uses PyTorch’s built-in spatial interpolators for efficiency, applying linear interpolation for 1D data and bicubic interpolation for 2D data directly in the spatial domain. For 3D or higher-dimensional inputs, the ``resample`` function switches to a spectral interpolation method based on the Fourier transform. The input is transformed into the frequency domain using a real n-dimensional FFT, which decomposes the signal into its frequency components. By resizing this frequency representation and then applying an inverse FFT, the function achieves smooth, alias-free interpolation that preserves the signal’s overall structure.

# # The ``resample`` function effectively changes the resolution of the data. # Notice that the upsampled image on the right is a faithful, if slightly blurrier, # reconstruction of the original.
