    Abstract

    The goal of this paper is the development of a novel approach for the problem
    of Noise Removal, based on the theory of Reproducing Kernels Hilbert Spaces
    (RKHS). The problem is cast as an optimization task in a RKHS, by taking
    advantage of the celebrated semiparametric Representer Theorem. Examples verify
    that in the presence of gaussian noise the proposed method performs relatively
    well compared to wavelet based technics and outperforms them significantly in
    the presence of impulse or mixed noise.

  2. Extension of Wirtinger's Calculus to Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces and the Complex Kernel LMS.

    Abstract

    Over the last decade, kernel methods for nonlinear processing have
    successfully been used in the machine learning community. The primary
    mathematical tool employed in these methods is the notion of the Reproducing
    Kernel Hilbert Space. However, so far, the emphasis has been on batch
    techniques. It is only recently, that online techniques have been considered in
    the context of adaptive signal processing tasks. Moreover, these efforts have
    only been focussed on real valued data sequences.

  3. Extension of Wirtinger Calculus in RKH Spaces and the Complex Kernal LMS.

    Abstract

    Over the last decade, kernel methods for nonlinear processing have
    successfully been used in the machine learning community. However, so far, the
    emphasis has been on batch techniques. It is only recently, that online
    adaptive techniques have been considered in the context of signal processing
    tasks. To the best of our knowledge, no kernel-based strategy has been
    developed, so far, that is able to deal with complex valued signals. In this
    paper, we take advantage of a technique called complexification of real RKHSs
    to attack this problem.

  4. The Complex Gaussian Kernel LMS algorithm.

    Abstract

    Although the real reproducing kernels are used in an increasing number of
    machine learning problems, complex kernels have not, yet, been used, in spite
    of their potential interest in applications such as communications. In this
    work, we focus our attention on the complex gaussian kernel and its possible
    application in the complex Kernel LMS algorithm. In order to derive the
    gradients needed to develop the complex kernel LMS (CKLMS), we employ the
    powerful tool of Wirtinger's Calculus, which has recently attracted much
    attention in the signal processing community.

  5. Preamble-Based Channel Estimation for CP-OFDM and OFDM/OQAM Systems: A Comparative Study.

    Authors: Dimitris Katselis, Eleftherios Kofidis, Athanasios Rontogiannis, Sergios Theodoridis
    Subjects: Information Theory
    Abstract

    In this paper, preamble-based least squares (LS) channel estimation in OFDM
    systems of the QAM and offset QAM (OQAM) types is considered, in both the
    frequency and the time domains. The construction of optimal (in the mean
    squared error (MSE) sense) preambles is investigated, for both the cases of
    full (all tones carrying pilot symbols) and sparse (a subset of pilot tones,
    surrounded by nulls or data) preambles. The two OFDM systems are compared for
    the same transmit power, which, for cyclic prefix (CP) based OFDM/QAM, also
    includes the power spent for CP transmission.
