### FIR Filter Design: Window vs Parks McClellan and Least Squares

I agree that the windowing filter design method is not one of the most important design methods anymore, and it might indeed be the case that it is overrepresented in traditional textbooks, probably ...

One may have a look at the CRLB of estimating the parameters of a sine wave. The model for signal is given by: $$x \left[ n \right] = A \cos \left( \omega n + \phi \right) + w \left[ n \right], \; n =... • 45.3k 9 votes Accepted ### Difference between Leaking Factor and Forgetting Factor The play similar role in those algorithms - the ability to forget the past and adapt to current reality. In the LMS, the classic implementation has  \alpha = 1 . Namely the optimal weights at any ... • 45.3k 9 votes Accepted ### Quadratic Programming with Linear Equality Constraints Let's solve a more general problem (Least Squares with Linear Equality Constraints):$$ \begin{alignat*}{3} \arg \min_{x} & \quad & \frac{1}{2} \left\| A x - b \right\|_{2}^{2} \\ \text{...

The LMS algorithm is based on the idea of gradient descent to search for the optimal (minimum error) condition, with a cost function equal to the mean squared error at the filter output. However, it ...

### FIR Filter Design: Window vs Parks McClellan and Least Squares

I'll show here one benefit of a windowed design and a trick to get the same benefit from Parks–McClellan. For half-band, quarter-band etc. filters windowing retains the time-domain zeros of the ...

### FIR Filter Design: Window vs Parks McClellan and Least Squares

Windowed Sinc filters can be adaptively generated on the fly on processors barely powerful enough to run the associated FIR filter. Windowed Sinc filters can be generated in finite bounded time. The ...

### Use MATLAB to Restore a Signal from a Given Degraded Signal Using Tikhonov Regularization

The idea is to represent all operation sing Matrices. Once it is done, it is easy to solve the problems as a Least Squares problems. The way to represent Convolution Operation using a Matrix is by ...

### Least Angle Regression (LARS) without Matrix Inversion

If you want to solve for single value of $\lambda$ in the model: $$\arg \min_{x} \frac{1}{2} {\left\| A x - b \right\|}_{2}^{2} + \lambda {\left\| x \right\|}_{1}$$ Then you can use Coordinate ...

### What Is the Difference between RLS, LMS and Wiener Filter? When Is One Preferred Over Another?

All three are Estimators / Predictors. All of them try to estimate the coefficients of Linear Filter which minimizes an MMSE Cost Function. The Wiener filter assumes all data is given and sets the ...

### Questions on the Generalized Tikhonov Regularization

One way to interpret the Tikhonov Regularization is using the Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) framework. Lets' say we have a model of the form: $$\boldsymbol{y} = H \boldsymbol{x} + \boldsymbol{n}$$ ...

### High Dynamic Range FIR Filters

The problem lies in the formulation of the desired response, and especially in the "don't care" region, which is extremely wide for the chosen filter length. Even though I can't give any ...

### Looking for the Concept About All In One Curve Fitting

You can always augment the matrices to do so. Let's assume the first model is given by: $${y}_{1} = {H}_{1} * {\theta}_{1}$$ The second model is given by: $${y}_{2} = {H}_{2} * {\theta}_{2}$$ ...

### Least Mean Squares (LMS) Filter Weight Update

That really depends on context, but generally adaptive implies that the calculations are done on-line / on the fly. In some applications, the filter is updated for a while, then the adaptation is ...

### Least Squares with Non Zero Mean Noise

Since this is a linear model if you add noise which isn't centered (Non zero mean noise) your estimation will be good up to a bias term. The easy way to do so is to remove the bias from $y$ and ...

### Why Would Pre Filtering Measurement Data Affect the Least Squares Estimate?

I'm not sure what's you model is. Let's say it is something like: $$y = H x + n$$ Now, using the Least Squares model is optimal (In the MSE sense) when $n$ is AWGN (It is the linear optimal ...

### Finding the Best Gaussian Smoothing Kernel to Minimize the Discrepancy Between Two Images

This is closely related to Blind Deconvolution. The only difference is we limit our self to a very specific type of blur kernels. The nice thing about the Gaussian Kernel is being defined by single ...
