A least-squares identification method is studied that estimates a finite number of expansion coefficients in the series expansion of a transfer function, where the expansion is in terms of recently introduced generalized basis functions. The basis functions are orthogonal in 8$, and generalize the pulse, Laguerre and Kautz bases. One of their important properties is that, when chosen properly, ...

We study the relationship between operators, orthonormal basis of subspaces and frames of subspaces (also called fusion frames) for a separable Hilbert space H. We get sufficient conditions on an orthonormal basis of subspaces E = {Ei}i∈I of a Hilbert space K and a surjective T ∈ L(K,H) in order that {T (Ei)}i∈I is a frame of subspaces with respect to a computable sequence of weights. We also o...

The deconvolution of signals is studied with thresholding estimators that decompose signals in an orthonormal basis and threshold the resulting coefficients. A general criterion is established to choose the orthonormal basis in order to minimize the estimation risk. Wavelet bases are highly sub-optimal to restore signals and images blurred by a low-pass filter whose transfer function vanishes a...

of the Correlation Matrix Memory (CMM), which is useful to work with binary memories. A novel Boolean Orthonormalization Process (BOP) is presented to convert a non-orthonormal Boolean basis, i.e., a set of non-orthonormal binary vectors (in a Boolean sense) to an orthonormal Boolean basis, i.e., a set of orthonormal binary vectors (in a Boolean sense). This work shows that it is possible to im...

Abstract. Let G be a step-two nilpotent group of H-type with Lie algebra G = V ⊕ t. We define a class of vector fields X = {Xj} on G depending on a real parameter k ≥ 1, and we consider the corresponding p-Laplacian operator Lp,ku = divX(|∇Xu| ∇Xu). For k = 1 the vector fields X = {Xj} are the left invariant vector fields corresponding to an orthonormal basis of V , for k = 2 and G being the He...

We construct a monomial basis of the positive part U of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a finite–dimensional simple Lie algebra. As an application we give a simple proof of the existence and uniqueness of the canonical basis of U. 0. Introduction In [L1], Lusztig showed that the positive part U of the quantized enveloping algebra associated to a finite–dimensional simple Lie alge...

Binary tree-structured filter banks have been employed in the past to generate wavelet bases. While the relation between paraunitary filter banks and orthonormal bases is known to some extent, there are some extensions which are either not known, or not published so far. In particular it is known that a binary tree-structured filter bank with the same paraunitary polyphase matrix on all levels ...

Frisvad’s method for building a 3D orthonormal basis from a unit vector has accuracy problems in its published floating point form. These problems are investigated and a partial fix is suggested, by replacing the threshold 0.9999999 by the threshold -0.999805696, which decreases the maximum error in the orthonormality conditions from 0.623 to 0.0062.
