A fast algorithm for LR-2 factorization of Toeplitz matrices
In this paper a new order recursive algorithm for the efficient â1 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, âŠ,p, of , as well as the elements of Râ1, of a Toeplitz matrix with dimensions L Ă p. The factor estimation requires 8Lp MADS (multiplications and divisions). Matrix â1 is subsequently estimated using 3p2 MADS. A faster algorithm, based on a mixed and â1 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 â1 algorithm is derived. Matlab code implementing the algorithm is also supplied
EIT Reconstruction Algorithms: Pitfalls, Challenges and Recent Developments
We review developments, issues and challenges in Electrical Impedance
Tomography (EIT), for the 4th Workshop on Biomedical Applications of EIT,
Manchester 2003. We focus on the necessity for three dimensional data
collection and reconstruction, efficient solution of the forward problem and
present and future reconstruction algorithms. We also suggest common pitfalls
or ``inverse crimes'' to avoid.Comment: A review paper for the 4th Workshop on Biomedical Applications of

A fast semi-direct least squares algorithm for hierarchically block separable matrices
We present a fast algorithm for linear least squares problems governed by
hierarchically block separable (HBS) matrices. Such matrices are generally
dense but data-sparse and can describe many important operators including those
derived from asymptotically smooth radial kernels that are not too oscillatory.
The algorithm is based on a recursive skeletonization procedure that exposes
this sparsity and solves the dense least squares problem as a larger,
equality-constrained, sparse one. It relies on a sparse QR factorization
coupled with iterative weighted least squares methods. In essence, our scheme
consists of a direct component, comprised of matrix compression and
factorization, followed by an iterative component to enforce certain equality
constraints. At most two iterations are typically required for problems that
are not too ill-conditioned. For an HBS matrix with
having bounded off-diagonal block rank, the algorithm has optimal complexity. If the rank increases with the spatial dimension as is
common for operators that are singular at the origin, then this becomes
in 1D, in 2D, and
in 3D. We illustrate the performance of the method on
both over- and underdetermined systems in a variety of settings, with an
emphasis on radial basis function approximation and efficient updating and
downdating.Comment: 24 pages, 8 figures, 6 tables; to appear in SIAM J. Matrix Anal. App
