This paper proposes an adaptive microphone array using blind deconvolution. The method realizes an signal enhancement based on the combination with beamforming using blind deconvolution, synchronized summation and DSA method. The proposed method improves a performance of estimation by the iterative operation of blind deconvolution using a cost-function base on the coherency function.

This paper discusses blind identification and deconvolution of two-input two-output channels corrupted by noises based on secondorder statistics. First, the identifiability of channel is analyzed. By constructing an new criterion, the channel parameters can be identified precisely in the present of noises. Second, the cost function of identification is established and the corresponding algorith...

We present an approach to determine sufficient conditions for the global convergence of iterative blind deconvolution algorithms using finite impulse response (FIR) deconvolution filters. The novel technique, which incorporates Lyapunov’s direct method, is general, flexible, and can be easily adapted to analyze the behavior of many types of nonlinear iterative signal processing algorithms. Spec...

The method described here performs blind deconvolution of the beamforming output in the frequency domain. To provide accurate blind deconvolution, sparsity priors are introduced with a smooth l1/l2 regularization term. As the mean of the noise in the power spectrum domain is dependent on its variance in the time domain, the proposed method includes a variance estimation step, which allows more ...

The deconvolution principle was used to evaluate the extent of absorption and first-pass elimination of selected drugs. In the first example, deconvolution of the portal blood profiles of etretinate (ET, a synthetic retinoid) indicated that there was significant gut-wall conversion of ET to acitretin (ETA, the primary metabolite of ET) during a 60-min intestinal perfusion of ET. In the second e...

objective(s): erythropoietin (epo), is a 34kda glycoprotein hormone, which belongs to type 1 cytokine superfamily. epo involves in erythrocyte maturation through inhibition of apoptosis in erythroid cells. besides its main function, protective effects of epo in heart and brain tissues have been reported. epo has a critical role in development, growth, and homeostasis of brain. furthermore epo h...
