"""Implementation of an FFT-based Short-time Fourier Transform. """

# Implementation Notes for this file (as of 2025-08)
# --------------------------------------------------
# * Since the method `stft` and `istft` have identical names as the legacy
#   functions in the signal module, referencing them as HTML link in the
#   docstrings has to be done by an explicit `~ShortTimeFFT.stft` instead of an
#   ambiguous `stft` (The ``~`` hides the class / module name).
# * The HTML documentation currently renders each method/property on a separate
#   page without reference to the parent class. Thus, a link to `ShortTimeFFT`
#   was added to the "See Also" section of each method/property. These links
#   can be removed, when SciPy updates ``pydata-sphinx-theme`` to >= 0.13.3
#   (currently 0.9). Consult Issue 18512 and PR 16660 for further details.

    r"""Calculate the STFT dual window of a given window closest to a desired dual
        window.

        For a given short-time Fourier transform window `win` incremented by `hop`
        samples, the dual window is calculated, which minimizes
        ``abs(dual_win - desired_dual)**2`` when `scaled` is ``False``. For `scaled`
        set to ``True``, ``abs(alpha*dual_win - desired_dual)**2`` is minimized with
        `alpha` being the optimal scaling factor.
        A ``ValueError`` is raised if no valid dual window can be determined.


        Parameters
        ----------
        win : np.ndarray
            The window must be a real- or complex-valued 1d array.
        hop : int
            The increment in samples by which the window is shifted in each step.
        desired_dual: np.ndarray | None
            The desired dual window must be a 1d array of the same length as `win`.
            If set to ``None`` (default), then `desired_dual` is assumed to be the
            rectangular window, i.e., ``np.ones_like(win)``.
        scaled : bool
            If set (default), the closest scaled version instead of closest dual window
            is calculated.

        Returns
        -------
        dual_win : np.ndarray
            A dual window of ``alpha*win`` (with hop interval `hop`), which is closest
            to `desired_dual`. Note that the dual window of `win` is `dual_win/alpha`
            and that the dual window of `dual_win` is `alpha*win`.
            `dual_win` has the same shape as `win` and `desired_win`.
        alpha : float | complex
            Scale factor for `win`. It is always one if `scaled` is set to ``False``.

        Notes
        -----
        For a given window and `hop` interval, all possible dual windows are expressed
        by the `hop` linear conditions of Eq. :math:numref:`eq_STFT_AllDualWinsCond` in
        the :ref:`tutorial_stft` section of the :ref:`user_guide`. Hence, decreasing
        `hop`, increases the number of degrees of freedom of the set of all possible
        dual windows, improving the ability to better approximate a `desired_dual`.

        This function can also be used to determine windows which fulfill the
        so-called "Constant OverLap Add" (COLA) condition [1]_. It states that summing
        all touching window values at any given sample position results in the same
        constant :math:`\alpha`. Eq. :math:numref:`eq_STFT_AllDualWinsCond` shows that
        this is equal to having a rectangular dual window, i.e., the dual being
        ``alpha*np.ones(m)``.

        Some examples of windows that satisfy COLA (taken from [2]_):

        - Rectangular window at overlap of 0, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, ...
        - Bartlett window at overlap of 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, ...
        - Hann window at 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, ...
        - Any Blackman family window at 2/3 overlap
        - Any window with ``hop=1``

        Examples
        --------
        Let's show that a Bartlett window with 75% overlap fulfills the COLA condition:

        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> import numpy as np
        >>> from scipy.signal import closest_STFT_dual_window, windows
        ...
        >>> m = 24
        >>> win, w_rect = windows.bartlett(m, sym=False), np.ones(m)
        >>> d_win, alpha = closest_STFT_dual_window(win, m//4, w_rect, scaled=True)
        >>> print(f"COLA: {np.allclose(d_win, w_rect*alpha)}, {alpha = :g}")
        COLA: True, alpha = 0.5

        We can also determine for which hop intervals the COLA condition is fulfilled:

        >>> hops, deviations, alphas = np.arange(1, 16, dtype=int), [], []
        >>> for h_ in hops:
        ...     w_cola, alpha = closest_STFT_dual_window(w_rect, h_, win, scaled=True)
        ...     deviations.append(np.linalg.norm(w_cola - win*alpha))
        ...     alphas.append(alpha)
        ...
        >>> fg0, (ax0, ax1) = plt.subplots(2, 1, sharex='all', tight_layout=True)
        >>> ax0.set_title(f"COLA Window closest to a {m}-Sample Bartlett Window")
        >>> ax0.set(ylabel=r"$||w_\text{cola}-\alpha w||$", xlim=(0, hops[-1]-.5))
        >>> ax1.set(xlabel="Hop Interval", ylabel=r"Scaling factor $\alpha$",
        ...         ylim=(0, 1.25))
        >>> ax0.plot(hops, deviations, 'C0.-')
        >>> ax1.plot(hops, alphas, 'C1.-')
        >>> for ax_ in (ax0, ax1):
        ...     ax_.grid()
        >>> plt.show()

        The lower plot shows the calculated scaling factor :math:`\alpha` for different
        `hops` whereas the upper displays the  :math:`L^2`-norm of the difference
        between the scaled Bartlett window and the calculated window. Since for `hops`
        1 to 4 as well as for 6 and 12 the :math:`L^2`-norm of the difference is
        practically zero, the COLA condition is fulfilled for those.

# noinspection PyShadowingNames
class ShortTimeFFT:
    r"""Provide a parametrized discrete Short-time Fourier transform (stft)
    and its inverse (istft).

    .. currentmodule:: scipy.signal.ShortTimeFFT

    The `~ShortTimeFFT.stft` calculates sequential FFTs by sliding a
    window (`win`) over an input signal by `hop` increments. It can be used to
    quantify the change of the spectrum over time.

    The `~ShortTimeFFT.stft` is represented by a complex-valued matrix S[q,p]
    where the p-th column represents an FFT with the window centered at the
    time t[p] = p * `delta_t` = p * `hop` * `T` where `T` is  the sampling
    interval of the input signal. The q-th row represents the values at the
    frequency f[q] = q * `delta_f` with `delta_f` = 1 / (`mfft` * `T`) being
    the bin width of the FFT.

    The inverse STFT `~ShortTimeFFT.istft` is calculated by reversing the steps
    of the STFT: Take the IFFT of the p-th slice of S[q,p] and multiply the
    result with the so-called dual window (see `dual_win`). Shift the result by
    p * `delta_t` and add the result to previous shifted results to reconstruct
    the signal. If only the dual window is known and the STFT is invertible,
    `from_dual` can be used to instantiate this class.

    By default, the so-called canonical dual window is used. It is the window with
    minimal energy among all possible dual windows. `from_win_equals_dual` and
    `~scipy.signal.closest_STFT_dual_window` provide means for utilizing alterantive
    dual windows. Note that `win` is also always a dual window of `dual_win`.

    Due to the convention of time t = 0 being at the first sample of the input
    signal, the STFT values typically have negative time slots. Hence,
    negative indexes like `p_min` or `k_min` do not indicate counting
    backwards from an array's end like in standard Python indexing but being
    left of t = 0.

    More detailed information can be found in the :ref:`tutorial_stft`
    section of the :ref:`user_guide`.

    Note that all parameters of the initializer, except `scale_to` (which uses
    `scaling`) have identical named attributes.

    Parameters
    ----------
    win : np.ndarray
        The window must be a real- or complex-valued 1d array.
    hop : int
        The increment in samples, by which the window is shifted in each step.
    fs : float
        Sampling frequency of input signal and window. Its relation to the
        sampling interval `T` is ``T = 1 / fs``.
    fft_mode : 'twosided', 'centered', 'onesided', 'onesided2X'
        Mode of FFT to be used (default 'onesided').
        See property `fft_mode` for details.
    mfft: int | None
        Length of the FFT used, if a zero padded FFT is desired.
        If ``None`` (default), the length of the window `win` is used.
    dual_win : np.ndarray | None
        The dual window of `win`. If set to ``None``, it is calculated if
        needed.
    scale_to : 'magnitude', 'psd' | None
        If not ``None`` (default) the window function is scaled, so each STFT
        column represents either a 'magnitude' or a power spectral density
        ('psd') spectrum. This parameter sets the property `scaling` to the
        same value. See method `scale_to` for details.
    phase_shift : int | None
        If set, add a linear phase `phase_shift` / `mfft` * `f` to each
        frequency `f`. The default value of 0 ensures that there is no phase shift
        on the zeroth slice (in which t=0 is centered). See property
        `phase_shift` for more details.

    Notes
    -----
    A typical STFT application is the creation of various types of time-frequency
    plots, often subsumed under the term "spectrogram". Note that this term is also
    used to explecitly refer to the absolute square of a STFT [11]_, as done in
    :meth:`spectrogram`.

    The STFT can also be used for filtering and filter banks as discussed in [12]_.

    Examples
    --------
    The following example shows the magnitude of the STFT of a sine with
    varying frequency :math:`f_i(t)` (marked by a red dashed line in the plot):

    >>> import numpy as np
    >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    >>> from scipy.signal import ShortTimeFFT
    >>> from scipy.signal.windows import gaussian
    ...
    >>> T_x, N = 1 / 20, 1000  # 20 Hz sampling rate for 50 s signal
    >>> t_x = np.arange(N) * T_x  # time indexes for signal
    >>> f_i = 1 * np.arctan((t_x - t_x[N // 2]) / 2) + 5  # varying frequency
    >>> x = np.sin(2*np.pi*np.cumsum(f_i)*T_x) # the signal

    The utilized Gaussian window is 50 samples or 2.5 s long. The parameter
    ``mfft=200`` in `ShortTimeFFT` causes the spectrum to be oversampled
    by a factor of 4:

    >>> g_std = 8  # standard deviation for Gaussian window in samples
    >>> w = gaussian(50, std=g_std, sym=True)  # symmetric Gaussian window
    >>> SFT = ShortTimeFFT(w, hop=10, fs=1/T_x, mfft=200, scale_to='magnitude')
    >>> Sx = SFT.stft(x)  # perform the STFT

    In the plot, the time extent of the signal `x` is marked by vertical dashed
    lines. Note that the SFT produces values outside the time range of `x`. The
    shaded areas on the left and the right indicate border effects caused
    by the window slices in that area not fully being inside time range of
    `x`:

    >>> fig1, ax1 = plt.subplots(figsize=(6., 4.))  # enlarge plot a bit
    >>> t_lo, t_hi = SFT.extent(N)[:2]  # time range of plot
    >>> ax1.set_title(rf"STFT ({SFT.m_num*SFT.T:g}$\,s$ Gaussian window, " +
    ...               rf"$\sigma_t={g_std*SFT.T}\,$s)")
    >>> ax1.set(xlabel=f"Time $t$ in seconds ({SFT.p_num(N)} slices, " +
    ...                rf"$\Delta t = {SFT.delta_t:g}\,$s)",
    ...         ylabel=f"Freq. $f$ in Hz ({SFT.f_pts} bins, " +
    ...                rf"$\Delta f = {SFT.delta_f:g}\,$Hz)",
    ...         xlim=(t_lo, t_hi))
    ...
    >>> im1 = ax1.imshow(abs(Sx), origin='lower', aspect='auto',
    ...                  extent=SFT.extent(N), cmap='viridis')
    >>> ax1.plot(t_x, f_i, 'r--', alpha=.5, label='$f_i(t)$')
    >>> fig1.colorbar(im1, label="Magnitude $|S_x(t, f)|$")
    ...
    >>> # Shade areas where window slices stick out to the side:
    >>> for t0_, t1_ in [(t_lo, SFT.lower_border_end[0] * SFT.T),
    ...                  (SFT.upper_border_begin(N)[0] * SFT.T, t_hi)]:
    ...     ax1.axvspan(t0_, t1_, color='w', linewidth=0, alpha=.2)
    >>> for t_ in [0, N * SFT.T]:  # mark signal borders with vertical line:
    ...     ax1.axvline(t_, color='y', linestyle='--', alpha=0.5)
    >>> ax1.legend()
    >>> fig1.tight_layout()
    >>> plt.show()

    Reconstructing the signal with the `~ShortTimeFFT.istft` is
    straightforward, but note that the length of `x1` should be specified,
    since the STFT length increases in `hop` steps:

    >>> SFT.invertible  # check if invertible
    True
    >>> x1 = SFT.istft(Sx, k1=N)
    >>> np.allclose(x, x1)
    True

    It is possible to calculate the STFT of signal parts:

    >>> N2 = SFT.nearest_k_p(N // 2)
    >>> Sx0 = SFT.stft(x[:N2])
    >>> Sx1 = SFT.stft(x[N2:])

    When assembling sequential STFT parts together, the overlap needs to be
    considered:

    >>> p0_ub = SFT.upper_border_begin(N2)[1] - SFT.p_min
    >>> p1_le = SFT.lower_border_end[1] - SFT.p_min
    >>> Sx01 = np.hstack((Sx0[:, :p0_ub],
    ...                   Sx0[:, p0_ub:] + Sx1[:, :p1_le],
    ...                   Sx1[:, p1_le:]))
    >>> np.allclose(Sx01, Sx)  # Compare with SFT of complete signal
    True

    It is also possible to calculate the `itsft` for signal parts:

    >>> y_p = SFT.istft(Sx, N//3, N//2)
    >>> np.allclose(y_p, x[N//3:N//2])
    True

        r"""Instantiate a `ShortTimeFFT` by only providing a dual window.

        If an STFT is invertible, it is possible to calculate the window `win`
        from a given dual window `dual_win`. All other parameters have the
        same meaning as in the initializer of `ShortTimeFFT`.

        As explained in the :ref:`tutorial_stft` section of the
        :ref:`user_guide`, an invertible STFT can be interpreted as series
        expansion of time-shifted and frequency modulated dual windows. E.g.,
        the series coefficient S[q,p] belongs to the term, which shifted
        `dual_win` by p * `delta_t` and multiplied it by
        exp( 2 * j * pi * t * q * `delta_f`).


        Examples
        --------
        The following example discusses decomposing a signal into time- and
        frequency-shifted Gaussians. A Gaussian with standard deviation of
        one made up of 51 samples will be used:

        >>> import numpy as np
        >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
        >>> from scipy.signal import ShortTimeFFT
        >>> from scipy.signal.windows import gaussian
        ...
        >>> T, N = 0.1, 51
        >>> d_win = gaussian(N, std=1/T, sym=True)  # symmetric Gaussian window
        >>> t = T * (np.arange(N) - N//2)
        ...
        >>> fg1, ax1 = plt.subplots()
        >>> ax1.set_title(r"Dual Window: Gaussian with $\sigma_t=1$")
        >>> ax1.set(xlabel=f"Time $t$ in seconds ({N} samples, $T={T}$ s)",
        ...        xlim=(t[0], t[-1]), ylim=(0, 1.1*np.max(d_win)))
        >>> ax1.plot(t, d_win, 'C0-')

        The following plot with the overlap of 41, 11 and 2 samples show how
        the `hop` interval affects the shape of the window `win`:

        >>> fig2, axx = plt.subplots(3, 1, sharex='all')
        ...
        >>> axx[0].set_title(r"Windows for hop$\in\{10, 40, 49\}$")
        >>> for c_, h_ in enumerate([10, 40, 49]):
        ...     SFT = ShortTimeFFT.from_dual(d_win, h_, 1/T)
        ...     axx[c_].plot(t + h_ * T, SFT.win, 'k--', alpha=.3, label=None)
        ...     axx[c_].plot(t - h_ * T, SFT.win, 'k:', alpha=.3, label=None)
        ...     axx[c_].plot(t, SFT.win, f'C{c_+1}',
        ...                     label=r"$\Delta t=%0.1f\,$s" % SFT.delta_t)
        ...     axx[c_].set_ylim(0, 1.1*max(SFT.win))
        ...     axx[c_].legend(loc='center')
        >>> axx[-1].set(xlabel=f"Time $t$ in seconds ({N} samples, $T={T}$ s)",
        ...             xlim=(t[0], t[-1]))
        >>> plt.show()

        Beside the window `win` centered at t = 0 the previous (t = -`delta_t`)
        and following window (t = `delta_t`) are depicted. It can be seen that
        for small `hop` intervals, the window is compact and smooth, having a
        good time-frequency concentration in the STFT. For the large `hop`
        interval of 4.9 s, the window has small values around t = 0, which are
        not covered by the overlap of the adjacent windows, which could lead to
        numeric inaccuracies. Furthermore, the peaky shape at the beginning and
        the end of the window points to a higher bandwidth, resulting in a
        poorer time-frequency resolution of the STFT.
        Hence, the choice of the `hop` interval will be a compromise between
        a time-frequency resolution and memory requirements demanded by small
        `hop` sizes.

        `nperseg`. The parameter names `noverlap`, and `nperseg` are used here,
        since they more inline with other classical STFT libraries.

        Parameters
        ----------
        win_param: Union[str, tuple, float],
            Parameters passed to `get_window`. For windows with no parameters,
            it may be a string (e.g., ``'hann'``), for parametrized windows a
            tuple, (e.g., ``('gaussian', 2.)``) or a single float specifying
            the shape parameter of a kaiser window (i.e. ``4.``  and
            ``('kaiser', 4.)`` are equal. See `get_window` for more details.
        fs : float
            Sampling frequency of input signal. Its relation to the
            sampling interval `T` is ``T = 1 / fs``.
        nperseg: int
            Window length in samples, which corresponds to the `m_num`.
        noverlap: int
            Window overlap in samples. It relates to the `hop` increment by
            ``hop = npsereg - noverlap``.
        symmetric_win: bool
            If ``True`` then a symmetric window is generated, else a periodic
            window is generated (default). Though symmetric windows seem for
            most applications to be more sensible, the default of a periodic
            windows was chosen to correspond to the default of `get_window`.
        fft_mode : 'twosided', 'centered', 'onesided', 'onesided2X'
            Mode of FFT to be used (default 'onesided').
            See property `fft_mode` for details.
        mfft: int | None
            Length of the FFT used, if a zero padded FFT is desired.
            If ``None`` (default), the length of the window `win` is used.
        scale_to : 'magnitude', 'psd' | None
            If not ``None`` (default) the window function is scaled, so each
            STFT column represents  either a 'magnitude' or a power spectral
            density ('psd') spectrum. This parameter sets the property
            `scaling` to the same value. See method `scale_to` for details.
        phase_shift : int | None
            If set, add a linear phase `phase_shift` / `mfft` * `f` to each
            frequency `f`. The default value 0 ensures that there is no phase
            shift on the zeroth slice (in which t=0 is centered). See property

        scaling factor.

        An instance is created were window and dual window are equal as well as being
        closest to the parameter `desired_win` in the least-squares sense, i.e.,
        minimizing ``abs(win-desired_win)**2``. Hence, `win` has the same length as
        `desired_win`. Then a scaling factor is applied accoring to the `scale_to`
        parameter.

        All other parameters have the identical meaning as in the initializer.

        To be able to calculate a valid window, `desired_win` needs to have a valid
        dual STFT window for the given `hop` interval.
        If this is not the case, a ``ValueError`` is raised.

        Parameters
        ----------
        desired_win : np.ndarray
            A real-valued or complex-valued 1d array containing the sample of the
            desired window.
        hop : int
            The increment in samples, by which the window is shifted in each step.
        fs : float
            Sampling frequency of input signal and window. Its relation to the
            sampling interval `T` is ``T = 1 / fs``.
        fft_mode : 'twosided', 'centered', 'onesided', 'onesided2X'
            Mode of FFT to be used (default 'onesided').
            See property `fft_mode` for details.
        mfft: int | None
            Length of the FFT used, if a zero padded FFT is desired.
            If ``None`` (default), the length of the window `win` is used.
        scale_to : 'magnitude' | 'psd' | 'unitary' | None
            If not ``None`` (default) the window function is scaled, so each STFT
            column represents either a 'magnitude' or a power spectral density ('psd')
            spectrum, Alternatively, the STFT can be scaled to a`unitary` mapping,
            i.e., dividing the window by ``np.sqrt(mfft)`` and multiplying the dual
            window by the same amount.
        phase_shift : int | None
            If set, add a linear phase `phase_shift` / `mfft` * `f` to each
            frequency `f`. The default value of 0 ensures that there is no phase shift
            on the zeroth slice (in which t=0 is centered). See property
            `phase_shift` for more details.


        Notes
        -----
        The set of all possible windows with identical dual is defined by the set of
        linear constraints of Eq. :math:numref:`eq_STFT_AllDualWinsCond` in the
        :ref:`tutorial_stft` section of the :ref:`user_guide`. There it is also
        derived that ``ShortTimeFFT.dual_win == ShortTimeFFT.m_pts * ShortTimeFFT.win``
        needs to hold for an STFT to be a unitary mapping.

        A unitary mapping preserves the value of the scalar product, i.e.,

        .. math::

            \langle x, y\rangle = \sum_k x[k]\, \overline{y[k]}
            \stackrel{\stackrel{\text{unitary}}{\downarrow}}{=}
            \sum_{q,p} S_x[q,p]\, \overline{S_y[q,p]}
            = \langle S_x[q,p], S_y[q,p]\rangle\ ,

        with :math:`S_{x,y}` being the STFT of :math:`x,y`. Hence, the energy
        :math:`E_x=T\sum_k |x[k]|^2` of a signal is also preserved. This is also
        illustrated in the example below.

        Thie reason of distinguishing between no scaling (i.e., parameter `scale_to` is
        ``None``) and unitary scaling (i.e., ``scale_to = 'unitary'``) is due to the
        utilized FFT function not being unitary (i.e., using the default value
        ``'backward'`` for the `~scipy.fft.fft` parameter `norm`).

        Note that ``fftmode='twosided'`` is used, since we need sum over the complete
        time frequency plane. Due to passing ``scale_to='unitary'`` the window
        ``SFT.win`` is scaled by ``1/np.sqrt(SFT.mfft)``. Hence, ``SFT.win`` needs to

        r"""Calculate spectrogram or cross-spectrogram.

        The spectrogram is the absolute square of the STFT, i.e., it is
        ``abs(S[q,p])**2`` for given ``S[q,p]`` and thus is always
        non-negative.
        For two STFTs ``Sx[q,p], Sy[q,p]``, the cross-spectrogram is defined
        as ``Sx[q,p] * np.conj(Sy[q,p])`` and is complex-valued.
        This is a convenience function for calling `~ShortTimeFFT.stft` /
        `stft_detrend`, hence all parameters are discussed there.

        Parameters
        ----------
        x : np.ndarray
            The input signal as real or complex valued array. For complex values, the
            property `fft_mode` must be set to 'twosided' or 'centered'.
        y : np.ndarray
            The second input signal of the same shape as `x`. If ``None``, it is
            assumed to be `x`. For complex values, the property `fft_mode` must be
            set to 'twosided' or 'centered'.
        detr : 'linear' |  'constant' |  Callable[[np.ndarray], np.ndarray] | None
            If 'constant', the mean is subtracted, if set to "linear", the linear
            trend is removed from each segment. This is achieved by calling
            `~scipy.signal.detrend`. If `detr` is a function with one parameter, `detr`
            is applied to each segment. For ``None`` (default), no trends are removed.
        p0 : int | None
            The first element of the range of slices to calculate. If ``None``
            then it is set to :attr:`p_min`, which is the smallest possible
            slice.
        p1 : int | None
            The end of the array. If ``None`` then `p_max(n)` is used.
        k_offset : int
            Index of first sample (t = 0) in `x`.
        padding : 'zeros' | 'edge' | 'even' | 'odd'
            Kind of values which are added, when the sliding window sticks out
            on either the lower or upper end of the input `x`. Zeros are added
            if the default 'zeros' is set. For 'edge' either the first or the
            last value of `x` is used. 'even' pads by reflecting the
            signal on the first or last sample and 'odd' additionally
            multiplies it with -1.
        axis : int
            The axis of `x` over which to compute the STFT.
            If not given, the last axis is used.

        Returns
        -------
        S_xy : np.ndarray
            A real-valued array with non-negative values is returned, if ``x is y`` or
            `y` is ``None``. The dimension is always by one larger than of `x`. The
            last axis always represents the time slices of the spectrogram. `axis`
            defines the frequency axis (default second to last). E.g., for a
            one-dimensional `x`, a complex 2d array is returned, with axis 0
            representing frequency and axis 1 the time slices.

        Notes
        -----
        The cross-spectrogram may be interpreted as the time-frequency analogon of the
        cross-spectral density (consult `csd`). The absolute square `|Sxy|²` of a
        cross-spectrogram `Sxy` divided by the spectrograms `Sxx` and `Syy` can be
        interpreted as a coherence spectrogram ``Cxy := abs(Sxy)**2 / (Sxx*Syy)``,
        which is the time-frequency analogon to `~coherence`.

        If the STFT is parametrized to be a unitary transform, i.e., utilitzing
        `~from_win_equals_dual`, then the value of the scalar product, hence also the
        energy, is preserved.

        Examples
        --------
        The following example shows the spectrogram of a square wave with varying
        frequency :math:`f_i(t)` (marked by a green dashed line in the plot) sampled
        with 20 Hz. The utilized Gaussian window is 50 samples or 2.5 s long. For the
        `ShortTimeFFT`, the parameter ``mfft=800`` (oversampling factor 16) and the
        `hop` interval of 2 in was chosen to produce a sufficient number of points.

        The plot's colormap is logarithmically scaled as the power spectral
        density is in dB. The time extent of the signal `x` is marked by
        vertical dashed lines, and the shaded areas mark the presence of border
        effects.

        The logarithmic scaling reveals the odd harmonics of the square wave,
        which are reflected at the Nyquist frequency of 10 Hz. This aliasing
        is also the main source of the noise artifacts in the plot.

            default (``k0 = 0``, ``k1 = None``) assumes that the maximum length

        f_axis, t_axis
            The axes in `S` denoting the frequency and the time dimension.

        Notes
        -----
        It is required that `S` has `f_pts` entries along the `f_axis`. For
        the `t_axis` it is assumed that the first entry corresponds to
        `p_min` * `delta_t` (being <= 0). The length of `t_axis` needs to be
        compatible with `k1`. I.e., ``S.shape[t_axis] >= self.p_max(k1)`` must
        hold, if `k1` is not ``None``. Else `k1` is set to `k_max` with::

            q_max = S.shape[t_range] + self.p_min

        Parameters
        ----------
        n : int
            Number of samples in input signal.
        axes_seq : {'tf', 'ft'}
            Return time extent first and then frequency extent or vice versa.
        center_bins: bool
            If set (default ``False``), the values of the time slots and
            frequency bins are moved from the side the middle. This is useful,
            when plotting the `~ShortTimeFFT.stft` values as step functions,
            i.e., with no interpolation.

        Examples
        --------
        The following two plots illustrate the effect of the parameter `center_bins`:
        The grid lines represent the three time and the four frequency values of the
        STFT.
        The left plot, where ``(t0, t1, f0, f1) = (0, 3, 0, 4)`` is passed as parameter
        ``extent`` to `~matplotlib.pyplot.imshow`, shows the standard behavior of the
        time and frequency values being at the lower edge of the corrsponding bin.
        The right plot, with ``(t0, t1, f0, f1) = (-0.5, 2.5, -0.5, 3.5)``, shows that
        the bins are centered over the respective values when passing
        ``center_bins=True``.
