A signal subspace is estimated from the data, then the algorithm scans a single dipole model through a three-dimensional head volume and computes projections onto this subspace. To locate the sources, the user must search the head volume for local peaks in the projection metric. We describe a novel extension of this approach which we refer to as RAP (recursively applied) MUSIC. This new procedure automatically extracts the locations of the sources through a recursive use of subspace projections, which uses the metric of principal correlations as a multidimensional form of correlation analysis between the model subspace and the data subspace. The dipolar orientations, a form of \"diverse polarization\", are easily extracted using the associated principal vectors.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125910949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The classic transform-based speech coding algorithm gives a well-defined coding procedure which yields good results. However its optimal bit assignment procedure has a good degree of variability. In this work several bit reoptimization schemes are explored, and a reoptimization scheme is proposed that is proven by simulations to be beneficial.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123138002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, while page detection in optical memory systems provides the motivation, the results are applicable to a broader class of problems including image de-blurring. While MLPD is infeasible, its performance provides a lower bound for the performance of practical data detection techniques. This utility is demonstrated through numerical examples.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124265201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is done by using a quadtree data structure to represent an encoding based on variable block sizes. To reduce the encoding complexity, hierarchical table lookup schemes are used to replace all the full search encoders.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116774331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two observations were assumed available, corresponding to the output of two channels driven by the same input. The channels were estimated based on the phase of the cross-correlation of the observations, filtered through their minimum-phase equivalent filters. Through simulations that method was found to be robust to additive noise, and significantly outperformed existing methods at low signal-to-noise ratios. In this paper we provide an analytic justification of the robustness of that method. We study analytically the propagation of noise in the phase estimate and in the channel estimates. Validation of the analytical results is provided by means of Monte Carlo simulations.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124955733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
