"While a spectrum is defined as a function of frequency, a cepstrum is defined as a function of 'quefrency'. Quefrency is measured in 'time' and can be interpreted as a measure for time offsets of patterns in the time domain."

    Those invented words lol, I can't take any of that seriously.
    “The terms "quefrency", "alanysis", "cepstrum" and "saphe" were invented by the authors by rearranging the letters in frequency, analysis, spectrum, and phase.”

    It really reads like wikipedia is trying to troll you. 😂

    Cepstrum is an anagram for Spectrum and Quefrency is an anagram for Frequency.

    I had to check if I‘m really on wikipedia and not something like pediwikia.

    The inverse of frequency is period. I don't know what the real name for "cepstrum" is but I'd bet that it exists. This kind of reinventive dilettantism is a cancer all too familiar; the Rust vocabulary has different words for all the basic terms of symbolic algebra.

    @cafecortado "Those invented words "

    all words are invented. or do you believe a linguist dug a dictionary in ancient athens and no new words were created since then?
