Henning Thielemann
TL;DR
This paper presents a framework that embeds real-time audio signal processing in Haskell using LLVM, combining Haskell's safety with high efficiency and vectorization for signal processing tasks.
Contribution
It introduces a novel approach to compile signal processing code within Haskell via LLVM, enabling high performance and safety in audio applications.
Findings
Achieves efficient, vectorized signal processing in Haskell
Provides a type-safe environment for real-time audio processing
Demonstrates Haskell as a viable alternative to specialized signal languages
Abstract
We discuss a programming language for real-time audio signal processing that is embedded in the functional language Haskell and uses the Low-Level Virtual Machine as back-end. With that framework we can code with the comfort and type safety of Haskell while achieving maximum efficiency of fast inner loops and full vectorisation. This way Haskell becomes a valuable alternative to special purpose signal processing languages.
