Recursive Least Squares
Recursive least squares (RLS) is an adaptive filter algorithm that recursively finds the coefficients that minimize a weighted linear least squares cost function relating to the input signals. This approach is in contrast to other algorithms such as the least mean squares (LMS) that aim to reduce the mean square error. In the derivation of the RLS, the input signals are considered deterministic, while for the LMS and similar algorithms they are considered stochastic. Compared to most of its competitors, the RLS exhibits extremely fast convergence. However, this benefit comes at the cost of high computational complexity. Motivation RLS was discovered by Gauss but lay unused or ignored until 1950 when Plackett rediscovered the original work of Gauss from 1821. In general, the RLS can be used to solve any problem that can be solved by adaptive filters. For example, suppose that a signal d(n) is transmitted over an echoey, noisy channel that causes it to be received as :x(n)=\sum_^q ...

Adaptive Filter
An adaptive filter is a system with a linear filter that has a transfer function controlled by variable parameters and a means to adjust those parameters according to an optimization algorithm. Because of the complexity of the optimization algorithms, almost all adaptive filters are digital filters. Adaptive filters are required for some applications because some parameters of the desired processing operation (for instance, the locations of reflective surfaces in a reverberant space) are not known in advance or are changing. The closed loop adaptive filter uses feedback in the form of an error signal to refine its transfer function. Generally speaking, the closed loop adaptive process involves the use of a cost function, which is a criterion for optimum performance of the filter, to feed an algorithm, which determines how to modify filter transfer function to minimize the cost on the next iteration. The most common cost function is the mean square of the error signal. As the pow ...

Kalman Filter
For statistics and control theory, Kalman filtering, also known as linear quadratic estimation (LQE), is an algorithm that uses a series of measurements observed over time, including statistical noise and other inaccuracies, and produces estimates of unknown variables that tend to be more accurate than those based on a single measurement alone, by estimating a joint probability distribution over the variables for each timeframe. The filter is named after Rudolf E. Kálmán, who was one of the primary developers of its theory. This digital filter is sometimes termed the ''Stratonovich–Kalman–Bucy filter'' because it is a special case of a more general, nonlinear filter developed somewhat earlier by the Soviet mathematician Ruslan Stratonovich. In fact, some of the special case linear filter's equations appeared in papers by Stratonovich that were published before summer 1960, when Kalman met with Stratonovich during a conference in Moscow. Kalman filtering has numerous tech ...

Zero-forcing Equalizer
The zero-forcing equalizer is a form of linear equalization algorithm used in communication systems which applies the inverse of the frequency response of the channel. This form of equalizer was first proposed by Robert Lucky. The zero-forcing equalizer applies the inverse of the channel frequency response to the received signal, to restore the signal after the channel. It has many useful applications. For example, it is studied heavily for IEEE 802.11n (MIMO) where knowing the channel allows recovery of the two or more streams which will be received on top of each other on each antenna. The name ''zero-forcing corresponds'' to bringing down the intersymbol interference (ISI) to zero in a noise-free case. This will be useful when ISI is significant compared to noise. For a channel with frequency response F(f) the zero-forcing equalizer C(f) is constructed by C(f) = 1/F(f). Thus the combination of channel and equalizer gives a flat frequency response and linear phase F(f)C(f) = 1. ...

Least Mean Squares Filter
Least mean squares (LMS) algorithms are a class of adaptive filter used to mimic a desired filter by finding the filter coefficients that relate to producing the least mean square of the error signal (difference between the desired and the actual signal). It is a stochastic gradient descent method in that the filter is only adapted based on the error at the current time. It was invented in 1960 by Stanford University professor Bernard Widrow and his first Ph.D. student, Ted Hoff. Problem formulation Relationship to the Wiener filter The realization of the causal Wiener filter looks a lot like the solution to the least squares estimate, except in the signal processing domain. The least squares solution, for input matrix \mathbf and output vector \boldsymbol y is : \boldsymbol = (\mathbf ^\mathbf\mathbf)^\mathbf^\boldsymbol y . The FIR least mean squares filter is related to the Wiener filter, but minimizing the error criterion of the former does not rely on cross-corr ...

Kernel Adaptive Filter
In signal processing, a kernel adaptive filter is a type of nonlinear adaptive filter. An adaptive filter is a filter that adapts its transfer function to changes in signal properties over time by minimizing an error or loss function that characterizes how far the filter deviates from ideal behavior. The adaptation process is based on learning from a sequence of signal samples and is thus an online algorithm. A nonlinear adaptive filter is one in which the transfer function is nonlinear. Kernel adaptive filters implement a nonlinear transfer function using kernel methods. In these methods, the signal is mapped to a high-dimensional linear feature space and a nonlinear function is approximated as a sum over kernels, whose domain is the feature space. If this is done in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space, a kernel method can be a universal approximator for a nonlinear function. Kernel methods have the advantage of having convex loss functions, with no local minima, and of being only ...

Identity Matrix
In linear algebra, the identity matrix of size n is the n\times n square matrix with ones on the main diagonal and zeros elsewhere. Terminology and notation The identity matrix is often denoted by I_n, or simply by I if the size is immaterial or can be trivially determined by the context. I_1 = \begin 1 \end ,\ I_2 = \begin 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end ,\ I_3 = \begin 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end ,\ \dots ,\ I_n = \begin 1 & 0 & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & \cdots & 0 \\ \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & \cdots & 1 \end. The term unit matrix has also been widely used, but the term ''identity matrix'' is now standard. The term ''unit matrix'' is ambiguous, because it is also used for a matrix of ones and for any unit of the ring of all n\times n matrices. In some fields, such as group theory or quantum mechanics, the identity matrix is sometimes denoted by a boldface one, \mathbf, or called "id" (short for identity). ...

Woodbury Matrix Identity
In mathematics (specifically linear algebra), the Woodbury matrix identity, named after Max A. Woodbury, says that the inverse of a rank-''k'' correction of some matrix can be computed by doing a rank-''k'' correction to the inverse of the original matrix. Alternative names for this formula are the matrix inversion lemma, Sherman–Morrison–Woodbury formula or just Woodbury formula. However, the identity appeared in several papers before the Woodbury report. The Woodbury matrix identity is : \left(A + UCV \right)^ = A^ - A^U \left(C^ + VA^U \right)^ VA^, where ''A'', ''U'', ''C'' and ''V'' are conformable matrices: ''A'' is ''n''×''n'', ''C'' is ''k''×''k'', ''U'' is ''n''×''k'', and ''V'' is ''k''×''n''. This can be derived using blockwise matrix inversion. While the identity is primarily used on matrices, it holds in a general ring or in an Ab-category. Discussion To prove this result, we will start by proving a simpler one. Replacing ''A'' and ''C'' with the ide ...

Cross-covariance
In probability and statistics, given two stochastic processes \left\ and \left\, the cross-covariance is a function that gives the covariance of one process with the other at pairs of time points. With the usual notation \operatorname E for the expectation operator, if the processes have the mean functions \mu_X(t) = \operatorname \operatorname E _t/math> and \mu_Y(t) = \operatorname E _t/math>, then the cross-covariance is given by :\operatorname_(t_1,t_2) = \operatorname (X_, Y_) = \operatorname X_ - \mu_X(t_1))(Y_ - \mu_Y(t_2))= \operatorname _ Y_- \mu_X(t_1) \mu_Y(t_2).\, Cross-covariance is related to the more commonly used cross-correlation of the processes in question. In the case of two random vectors \mathbf=(X_1, X_2, \ldots , X_p)^ and \mathbf=(Y_1, Y_2, \ldots , Y_q)^, the cross-covariance would be a p \times q matrix \operatorname_ (often denoted \operatorname(X,Y)) with entries \operatorname_(j,k) = \operatorname(X_j, Y_k).\, Thus the term ''cross-covariance'' i ...
