    Adaptive filters are applied in several electronic and communication devices like smartphones, advanced headphones, DSP chips, smart antenna, and teleconference systems. Also, they have application in many areas such as system identification, channel equalization, noise reduction, echo cancellation, interference cancellation, signal prediction, and stock market. Therefore, reducing the energy consumption of the adaptive filtering algorithms has great importance, particularly in green technologies and in devices using battery. In this thesis, data-selective adaptive filters, in particular the set-membership (SM) adaptive filters, are the tools to reach the goal. There are well known SM adaptive filters in literature. This work introduces new algorithms based on the classical ones in order to improve their performances and reduce the number of required arithmetic operations at the same time. Therefore, firstly, we analyze the robustness of the classical SM adaptive filtering algorithms. Secondly, we extend the SM technique to trinion and quaternion systems. Thirdly, by combining SM filtering and partialupdating, we introduce a new improved set-membership affine projection algorithm with constrained step size to improve its stability behavior. Fourthly, we propose some new least-mean-square (LMS) based and recursive least-squares based adaptive filtering algorithms with low computational complexity for sparse systems. Finally, we derive some feature LMS algorithms to exploit the hidden sparsity in the parameters.Filtros adaptativos são aplicados em diversos aparelhos eletrônicos e de comunicação, como smartphones, fone de ouvido avançados, DSP chips, antenas inteligentes e sistemas de teleconferência. Eles também têm aplicação em várias áreas como identificação de sistemas, equalização de canal, cancelamento de eco, cancelamento de interferência, previsão de sinal e mercado de ações. Desse modo, reduzir o consumo de energia de algoritmos adaptativos tem importância significativa, especialmente em tecnologias verdes e aparelhos que usam bateria. Nesta tese, filtros adaptativos com seleção de dados, em particular filtros adaptativos da família set-membership (SM), são apresentados para cumprir essa missão. No presente trabalho objetivamos apresentar novos algoritmos, baseados nos clássicos, a fim de aperfeiçoar seus desempenhos e, ao mesmo tempo, reduzir o número de operações aritméticas exigidas. Dessa forma, primeiro analisamos a robustez dos filtros adaptativos SM clássicos. Segundo, estendemos o SM aos números trinions e quaternions. Terceiro, foram utilizadas também duas famílias de algoritmos, SM filtering e partial-updating, de uma maneira elegante, visando reduzir energia ao máximo possível e obter um desempenho competitivo em termos de estabilidade. Quarto, a tese propõe novos filtros adaptativos baseado em algoritmos least-mean-square (LMS) e mínimos quadrados recursivos com complexidade computacional baixa para espaços esparsos. Finalmente, derivamos alguns algoritmos feature LMS para explorar a esparsidade escondida nos parâmetros

    In this paper, the set-membership affine projection (SM-AP) algorithm is utilized to censor non-informative data in big data applications. To this end, the probability distribution of the additive noise signal and the excess of the mean-squared error (EMSE) in steady-state are employed in order to estimate the threshold parameter of the single threshold SM-AP (ST-SM-AP) algorithm aiming at attaining the desired update rate. Furthermore, by defining an acceptable range for the error signal, the double threshold SM-AP (DT-SM-AP) algorithm is proposed to detect very large errors due to the irrelevant data such as outliers. The DT-SM-AP algorithm can censor non-informative and irrelevant data in big data applications, and it can improve the misalignment and convergence rate of the learning process with high computational efficiency. The simulation and numerical results corroborate the superiority of the proposed algorithms over traditional algorithms

    The main drawback of closed-form solution of linearly constrained minimum variance (CF-LCMV) beamformer is the dilemma of acquiring long observation time for stable covariance matrix estimates and short observation time to track dynamic behavior of targets, leading to poor performance including low signal-noise-ratio (SNR), low jammer-to-noise ratios (JNRs) and small number of snapshots. Additionally, CF-LCMV suffers from heavy computational burden which mainly comes from two matrix inverse operations for computing the optimal weight vector. In this paper, we derive a low-complexity Robust Adaptive LCMV beamformer based on an Iterative Suboptimal solution (RAIS-LCMV) using conjugate gradient (CG) optimization method. The merit of our proposed method is threefold. Firstly, RAIS-LCMV beamformer can reduce the complexity of CF-LCMV remarkably. Secondly, RAIS-LCMV beamformer can adjust output adaptively based on measurement and its convergence speed is comparable. Finally, RAIS-LCMV algorithm has robust performance against low SNR, JNRs, and small number of snapshots. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed algorithms

    Robust Reduced-Rank Adaptive Processing Based on Parallel Subgradient Projection and Krylov Subspace Techniques

    In this paper, we propose a novel reduced-rank adaptive filtering algorithm by blending the idea of the Krylov subspace methods with the set-theoretic adaptive filtering framework. Unlike the existing Krylov-subspace-based reduced-rank methods, the proposed algorithm tracks the optimal point in the sense of minimizing the \sinq{true} mean square error (MSE) in the Krylov subspace, even when the estimated statistics become erroneous (e.g., due to sudden changes of environments). Therefore, compared with those existing methods, the proposed algorithm is more suited to adaptive filtering applications. The algorithm is analyzed based on a modified version of the adaptive projected subgradient method (APSM). Numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed algorithm enjoys better tracking performance than the existing methods for the interference suppression problem in code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems as well as for simple system identification problems.Comment: 10 figures.

    Dispersion of Mass and the Complexity of Randomized Geometric Algorithms

    How much can randomness help computation? Motivated by this general question and by volume computation, one of the few instances where randomness provably helps, we analyze a notion of dispersion and connect it to asymptotic convex geometry. We obtain a nearly quadratic lower bound on the complexity of randomized volume algorithms for convex bodies in R^n (the current best algorithm has complexity roughly n^4, conjectured to be n^3). Our main tools, dispersion of random determinants and dispersion of the length of a random point from a convex body, are of independent interest and applicable more generally; in particular, the latter is closely related to the variance hypothesis from convex geometry. This geometric dispersion also leads to lower bounds for matrix problems and property testing.Comment: Full version of L. Rademacher, S.
