A least-squares interpretation of the single-stage maximization criterion for multichannel blind deconvolution

چکیده
In order to attain multichannel blind deconvolution of linear time-invariant nonminimum-phase dynamic systems, Inouye and Habe proposed in 1995 a single-stage maximization criterion. The criterion function is the sum of squared forthorder cumulants of the equalizer outputs, and the coefficients of the equalizer are determined at once. On the other hand, one of possible approaches for multichannel blind deconvolution is to construct an equalizer based on the system identified by higher-order cumulant-matching. In this paper, it is shown that the single-stage maximization criterion is equivalent to a least-squares fourth-order cumulantmatching criterion after multichannel pre-whitening of channel outputs. This result provides us with an important interpretation of the single-stage maximization criterion.

Multichannel data: separating independent causes
The algorithm for blind deconvolution of a nonstationary time series of vector components (i.e. multichannel) has three stages: (1) Linear-least-squares multichannel prediction-error filtering, (2) Cholesky factorization of the zero-lag covariance matrix, and (3) Rotation angle scanning for maximum sparsity.

A new algorithm for simultaneous wavelet estimation and deconvolution of seismic reflection signals is given. To remove the inherent ambiguity in this blind deconvolution problem, we introduce relevant a priori information. Our major assumption is sparseness of the reflectivity, which corresponds to a layered earth model. This allows non-minimum phase wavelets to be recovered reliably and close...
متن کاملMultistage convolutive blind source separation for speech mixture
Blind source separation for convolutive mixture of speech signals has been addressed in many literatures. However, widely applied Multichannel Blind Deconvolution (MBD) method suffers whitening effect or arbitrary filtering problem which results in dramatic decrease of Automatic Speech Recognition system’s performance. In present paper, a new MBD based multistage method is proposed, in which co...

Multichannel blind deconvolution is a method that allows the separation of sources from which only convolutive mixtures are observable. It is an attractive technique for separating independent speech and noise signals. Fast tracking is essential in order to cope with real nonstationary environments. Based on the principle of information maximization, a new two-stage algorithm is proposed which ...

A new update equation for the general multichannel blind deconvolution (MCBD) of a convolved mixture of source signals is derived. It is based on the update equation for blind source separation (BSS), which has been shown to be an alternative interpretation [1] of the natural gradient applied to the minimization of some mutual information criterion [2]. Computational complexity is held at a min...
