  • The UCERSS (Unit Circle Eigendecomposition Rational Signal Subspace) algorithm has extended MUSIC (MUltiple Signal Classification ) by using eigendecomposition on the unit circle in order to estimate incident angles of multiple wide band signals. The purpose of this thesis is to further extend the UCERSS to be able to estimate the direction of arrivals of multiple wide band signals in very low SNR . The wide band ESPRIT (Estimation of Signal Parameter via Rotational Invariance Technique) uses covariance difference matrices to reduce noise components. In this paper the wide band ESPRIT which combines the ideas of UCERSS and ESPRIT Is proposed. Computer simulation results Indicate that the performances of the proposed approaches are superior to those of the UCERSS in very low SNR.

  • The performance of the BEWE(Bearing Estimation Without Eigendecomposition) algorithm depends on the sensor outputs which are selected to construct the projection matrix. In this paper, we construct the covariance matrix of the bearing estimates for two targets and propose the criterion to select the sensor outputs which minimize the covariance matrix. The computer simulation conforms that the estimation error is smallest when the sensor outputs are selected based on the proposed criterion.

  • A beam design method based on signal-to-leakage-plus-noise ratio (SLNR) has been recently proposed as an effective scheme for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output downlink channels. It is shown that its solution, which maximizes the SLNR at a transmitter, can be simply obtained by the generalized eigenvectors corresponding to the dominant generalized eigenvalues of a pair of covariance matrices of a desired signal and interference leakage plus noise. Under time-varying channels, however, generalized eigendecomposition is required at each time step to design the optimal beam, and its level of complexity is too high to implement in practical systems. To overcome this problem, a predictive beam design method updating the beams according to channel variation is proposed. To this end, the perturbed generalized eigenvectors, which can be obtained by a perturbation theory without any iteration, are used. The performance of the method in terms of SLNR is analyzed and verified using numerical results.

  • This paper concerns an effective dual-channel noise reduction method to increase the performance of speech recognition in a car environment. While various single channel methods have already been developed and dual-channel methods have been studied somewhat, their effectiveness in real environments, such as in cars, has not yet been formally proven in terms of achieving acceptable performance level. Our aim is to remedy the low performance of the single and dual-channel noise reduction methods. This paper proposes an effective dual-channel noise reduction method based on a high-pass filter and front-end processing of the eigendecomposition method. We experimented with a real multi-channel car database and compared the results with respect to the microphones arrangements. From the analysis and results, we show that the enhanced eigendecomposition method combined with high-pass filter indeed significantly improve the speech recognition performance under a dual-channel environment.

  • The MUSIC(MUltiple SIgnal Characterization)algorithm has been extenced to the UCERSS(Unit Circle Eigendecomposition Rational Signal Subspace) by taking eigendecimposition on the unit circle in order to estimate incident angles of multiple wide band signals. The purpose of this paper is to presetn SSB-UCERSS(Signal Subspace Based UCERSS) and SS-UCERSS(Spatially Smoothed UCERSS) estimating the incident angles of multiple side band signals in multipath(coherent signals) environments. Computer simulation results indicate that SSB-UCERSS yields the best result, while the SS-UCERSS performs better than the UCERTSS in a multipath environment.

  • In 3D ultrasound color Doppler imaging (CDI), 8-16 pulse transmissions (ensembles) per each scanline are used for effective clutter rejection and flow estimation, but it yields a low volume acquisition rate. In this paper, we have evaluated three flow estimation methods: autoregression (AR), eigendecomposition (ED), and autocorrelation combined with adaptive clutter rejection (AC-ACR) for a small ensemble size (E=4). The performance of AR, ED and AC-ACR methods was compared using 2D and 3D in vivo data acquired under different clutter conditions (common carotid artery, kidney and liver). To evaluate the effectiveness of three methods, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated. For 2D kidney in vivo data, the AC-ACR method outperforms the AR and ED methods in terms of the area under the ROC curve (AUC) (0.852 vs. 0.793 and 0.813, respectively). Similarly, the AC-ACR method shows higher AUC values for 2D liver in vivo data compared to the AR and ED methods (0.855 vs. 0.807 and 0.823, respectively). For the common carotid artery data, the AR provides higher AUC values, but it suffers from biased estimates. For 3D in vivo data acquired from a kidney transplant patient, the AC-ACR with E=4 provides an AUC value of 0.799. These in vivo experiment results indicate that the AC-ACR method can provide more robust flow estimates compared to the AR and ED methods with a small ensemble size.

  • This paper focuses on online speaker tracking for telephone conversations and broadcast news. Since the online applicability imposes some limitations on the tracking strategy, such as data insufficiency, a reliable approach should be applied to compensate for this shortage. In this framework, a set of reference speaker models are used as side information to facilitate online tracking. To improve the indexing accuracy, adaptation approaches in eigenvoice decomposition space are proposed in this paper. We believe that the eigenvoice adaptation techniques would help to embed the speaker space in the models and hence enrich the generality of the selected speaker models. Also, an index structure of the reference models is proposed to speed up the search in the model space. The proposed framework is evaluated on 2002 Rich Transcription Broadcast News and Conversational Telephone Speech corpus as well as a synthetic dataset. The indexing errors of the proposed framework on telephone conversations, broadcast news, and synthetic dataset are 8.77%, 9.36%, and 12.4%, respectively. Using the index tree structure approach, the run time of the proposed framework is improved by 22%.

  • Abstract-Using the recursive generalized eigendecomposition method, we develop a recursive form solution to the data least squares (DLS) problem, in which the error is assumed to lie in the data matrix only. Simulations demonstrate that DLS outperforms ordinary least square for certain types of deconvolution problems.

  • Adaptive arrays reject interferences while preserving the desired signal, exploiting a priori information on its arrival angle. Subspace-based adaptive arrays, which adjust their weight vectors in the signal subspace, have the advantages of fast convergence and robustness to steering vector errors, as compared with the ones in the full dimensional space. However, the complexity of theses subspace-based methods is high because the eigendecomposition of the covariance matrix is required. In this paper, we present a simple subspace-based method based on the PASTd (projection approximation subspace tracking with deflation). The orignal PASTd algorithm is modified such that eigenvectora are orthogonal to each other. The proposed method allows us to significantly reduce the computational complexity, substantially having the same performance as the beamformer with the direct eigendecomposition. In addition to the simple beamforming method, we present theoretical analyses on the SINR (signal-to-interference plus noise ratio) of subspace beamformers to see their behaviors.

  • Eigendecomposition based direction-of-arrival(DOA) estimation algorithm such as MUSIC(multiple signal classification) is known to perform well and provide high resolution in white noise environment. However, its performance degrades severely when the noise process is not white. In this paper we consider the DOA estimation problem in a colored noise environment as a problem of extracting periodic signals from noise, and we take the problem to the wavelet domain. Covariance matrix of multiscale components which are obtained by taking wavelet decomposition on the noise has a special structure which can be approximated with a banded sparse matrix. Compared with noise the correlation between multiscale components of narrowband signal decays slowly, hence the covariance matrix does not have a banded structure. Based on this fact we propose a DOA estimation algorithm that transforms the covariance matrix into wavelet domain and removes noise components located in specific bands. Simulations have been carried out to analyze the proposed algorithm in colored noise processes with various correlation properties.
