    A fast algorithm for LR-2 factorization of Toeplitz matrices

    Get PDF
    In this paper a new order recursive algorithm for the efficient −1 factorization of Toeplitz matrices is described. The proposed algorithm can be seen as a fast modified Gram-Schmidt method which recursively computes the orthonormal columns i, i = 1,2, 
,p, of , as well as the elements of R−1, of a Toeplitz matrix with dimensions L × p. The factor estimation requires 8Lp MADS (multiplications and divisions). Matrix −1 is subsequently estimated using 3p2 MADS. A faster algorithm, based on a mixed and −1 updating scheme, is also derived. It requires 7Lp + 3.5p2 MADS. The algorithm can be efficiently applied to batch least squares FIR filtering and system identification. When determination of the optimal filter is the desired task it can be utilized to compute the least squares filter in an order recursive way. The algorithm operates directly on the experimental data, overcoming the need for covariance estimates. An orthogonalized version of the proposed −1 algorithm is derived. Matlab code implementing the algorithm is also supplied

    A weakly stable algorithm for general Toeplitz systems

    Full text link
    We show that a fast algorithm for the QR factorization of a Toeplitz or Hankel matrix A is weakly stable in the sense that R^T.R is close to A^T.A. Thus, when the algorithm is used to solve the semi-normal equations R^T.Rx = A^Tb, we obtain a weakly stable method for the solution of a nonsingular Toeplitz or Hankel linear system Ax = b. The algorithm also applies to the solution of the full-rank Toeplitz or Hankel least squares problem.Comment: 17 pages. An old Technical Report with postscript added.

    A fast solver for linear systems with displacement structure

    Full text link
    We describe a fast solver for linear systems with reconstructable Cauchy-like structure, which requires O(rn^2) floating point operations and O(rn) memory locations, where n is the size of the matrix and r its displacement rank. The solver is based on the application of the generalized Schur algorithm to a suitable augmented matrix, under some assumptions on the knots of the Cauchy-like matrix. It includes various pivoting strategies, already discussed in the literature, and a new algorithm, which only requires reconstructability. We have developed a software package, written in Matlab and C-MEX, which provides a robust implementation of the above method. Our package also includes solvers for Toeplitz(+Hankel)-like and Vandermonde-like linear systems, as these structures can be reduced to Cauchy-like by fast and stable transforms. Numerical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the software.Comment: 27 pages, 6 figure

    Generalized companion matrix for approximate GCD

    Full text link
    We study a variant of the univariate approximate GCD problem, where the coefficients of one polynomial f(x)are known exactly, whereas the coefficients of the second polynomial g(x)may be perturbed. Our approach relies on the properties of the matrix which describes the operator of multiplication by gin the quotient ring C[x]=(f). In particular, the structure of the null space of the multiplication matrix contains all the essential information about GCD(f; g). Moreover, the multiplication matrix exhibits a displacement structure that allows us to design a fast algorithm for approximate GCD computation with quadratic complexity w.r.t. polynomial degrees.Comment: Submitted to MEGA 201
