In this paper, a partial adaptive process consisting of a small order tapped delay line neural network (TDNN) followed by a delayed normalized least mean squares (NLMS) adaptive filter is used to model a loudspeaker/microphone acoustic system. The TDNN models the first part of the acoustic impulse response (AIR) where most of the energy is contained and the delayed NLMS filter models the remaining echo. Experimental measurements confirm that a short length TDNN is capable of improved identification in an undermodelled system and that by extending this to the partial adaptive TDNN structure, the ERLE performance improves by 5.5 dB at high loudspeaker volumes when compared to a NLMS structure.","PeriodicalId":403144,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE Workshop on Neural Networks for Signal Processing","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131335193","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}

Acrylic particles have been used as granular solids in our experiment. First, particles are located using normalized correlation. A technique for measuring the velocities of individual acrylic particles is developed based on a Hopfield network to solve the particle correspondence problem between successive images. A new, rigidity constraint is applied to the Hopfield energy function, and the results show better performance than the conventional cost function.","PeriodicalId":403144,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE Workshop on Neural Networks for Signal Processing","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114368389","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}

We suggest to use the cross-validation scheme combined with a resampling technique to obtain an estimate of the generalization performance distribution of a specific model. This enables the formulation of a bulk of new generalization performance measures. Numerical results demonstrate the viability of the approach compared to the standard technique of using algebraic estimates like the FPE. Moreover, we consider the problem of comparing the generalization performance of different competing models. Since all models are trained on the same data, a key issue is to take this dependency into account. The optimal split of the data set of size N into a cross-validation set of size N/spl gamma/ and a training set of size N(1-/spl gamma/) is discussed. Asymptotically (large data sees), /spl gamma//sub opt//spl rarr/1 such that a relatively larger amount is left for validation.","PeriodicalId":403144,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE Workshop on Neural Networks for Signal Processing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128731732","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}

In particular, its discriminative learning version, called Learning Subspace Method (LSM), has been shown quite useful in various applications. However, this important design method leaves much room for further analysis due to the lack of a link between LSM and the ultimate goal of pattern recognition, i.e. the minimum error situation. In this light, we investigate in this paper SM from the viewpoint of the Minimum Classification Error/Generalized Probabilistic Descent method (MCE/GPD). Applying MCE/GPD to SM, we formalize a new discriminative subspace method, called the Minimum Error Learning Subspace method (MELS), which enables one to directly pursue the minimum error recognition. This paper also provides a rigorous analysis of the MELS’s learning mechanism as well as a comparison between the conventional LSM and MELS.","PeriodicalId":403144,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1995 IEEE Workshop on Neural Networks for Signal Processing","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125642521","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}
