Analysis of the dispersive Fourier transform dataset using dynamic mode decomposition: evidence of multiple vibrational modes and their interplay in a three-soliton molecule.

We demonstrate that the dynamic mode decomposition technique can effectively reduce the amount of noise in the dispersive Fourier transform dataset and allow for finer quantitative analysis of the experimental data. We therefore show that the oscillation pattern of a soliton molecule actually results from the interplay of several elementary vibration modes.
