In this paper, we consider the extensively studied problem of computing a $k$-sparse approximation to the $d$-dimensional Fourier transform of a length $n$ signal. Our algorithm uses $O(k log k log n)$ samples, is dimension-free, operates for any universe size, and achieves the strongest $ell_infty/ell_2$ guarantee, while running in a time comparable to the Fast Fourier Transform. In contrast to previous algorithms which proceed either via the Restricted Isometry Property or via filter functions, our approach offers a fresh perspective to the sparse Fourier Transform problem.
