چکیده

We consider the problem of quantizer design in a distributed estimation system with communication constraints in the case where only a training sequence is available. Our approach is based on a generalization of regression trees. The lookahead method that we also propose improves significantly the performance. The final system performs similarly to the one that assumes known statis-

Design of neural network quantizers for a distributed estimation system with communication constraints

We consider the problem of quantizer design in a distributed estimation system with communication constraints at the channels in the case where the observation statistics are unknown and one must rely on a training set. The method that we propose applies a variation of the Cyclic Generalized Lloyd Algorithm (CGLA) on every point of the training set and then uses a neural network for each quanti...

Quantization for Distributed Estimation with Unknown Observation Statistics

We consider the problem of quantizer design in a distributed estimation system with communicationchannels of limited capacity in the case where the observation statistics are unknown and only a training sequence is available. We consider the scheme of Cooperative Design-Separate Encoding. We introduce an approach that is based on a generalization of regression trees. Our scheme involves growing...

Quantization for Distributed Estimation with Communication and Storage Constraints

We consider the problem of quantizer design in a distributed estimation system subject not only to communication constraints at the channels but also to storage constraints at the fusion center in the case where the observation statistics are unknown and only a training sequence is available. Our scheme involves growing and pruning of regression trees along with some labeling techniques for ite...

A Robust Distributed Estimation Algorithm under Alpha-Stable Noise Condition

Robust adaptive estimation of unknown parameter has been an important issue in recent years for reliable operation in the distributed networks. The conventional adaptive estimation algorithms that rely on mean square error (MSE) criterion exhibit good performance in the presence of Gaussian noise, but their performance drastically decreases under impulsive noise. In this paper, we propose a rob...

One-Bit Quantization and Distributed Detection with an Unknown Scale Parameter

We examine a distributed detection problem in a wireless sensor network, where sensor nodes collaborate to detect a Gaussian signal with an unknown change of power, i.e., a scale parameter. Due to power/bandwidth constraints, we consider the case where each sensor quantizes its observation into a binary digit. The binary data are then transmitted through error-prone wireless links to a fusion c...
