A new normalized MBD algorithm is presented for nonstationary convolutive mixtures and its properties/modifications are discussed in details. The proposed algorithm normalizes the signal spectrum in the frequency domain to provide faster stable convergence and improved separation without whitening effect. Modifications such as nonholonomic constraints and off-diagonal learning to the proposed algorithm are also discussed. Simulation results using a real-world recording confirm superior performanceof the proposed algorithm and its usefulness in real world applications.

A new method for the simulation of the vehicle's interior road noise is proposed in the present study. The road noise model can synthesize road noise of a vehicle for varying driving speed within a range. In the proposed method, interior road noise is considered as a stochastic time-series, and is modeled by a nonstationary parametric model via two steps. First, each interior road noise signal, obtained from constant speed driving tests performed within a range of speed, is modeled as an autoregressive model whose parameters are estimated by using a standard method. Finally, the parameters obtained for different driving speeds are interpolated based on the varying driving speed to yield a time-varying autoregressive model. To model a full band road noise, audible frequency range is divided into an octave band using a wavelet filter bank, and the road noise in each octave band is modeled.

Dynamic neural networks have been applied to diverse fields requiring temporal signal processing such as system identification and signal prediction. This paper proposes the gamma neural network(GAM), which uses gamma memory kernel in the hidden layer of feedforward multilayered network, to improve dynamics of networks and then describes nonlinear adaptive prediction using the proposed network as an adaptive filter. The proposed network is evaluated in nonlinear signal prediction and compared with feedforword(FNN) and recurrent neural networks(RNN) for the relative comparison of prediction performance. Simulation results show that the GAM network performs better with respect to the convergence speed and prediction accuracy, indicating that it can be a more effective prediction model than conventional multilayered networks in nonlinear prediction for nonstationary signals.

A speech enhancement algorithm which attenuates nonstationary colored noise is presented In this paper. The algorithm consists of a stationary Kalman filter and the simple speech/nonspeech detector. While the conventional enhancement systems are focused on a stationary and/or white background noise, this study Is focused on the mort realistic nonstationary and nonwhite noise. An AR model-based vector Kalman filter is used as a noise suppression system and a short-time energy threshold logic is used as a speech/nonspeech classifier. For Kalman filtering. noise coefficients are estimated in the nonspeech frame, and speech coefficients are estimated by applying the EM iteration algorithm. Simulation results using the car noise are presented based on the signal-to-noise ratio and informal listening tests. According to the experimental results, background noises in the nonspeech frames are eliminated almost completely, while some distortions are noticed in the speech frames. The distortion becomes severer as the SNR is reduced to 0dB and -5dB. Intelligibility, however, is not degraded significantly.

Medical image compression using the wavelet transform has been tried. Due to the flexibility in representing nonstationary image signal in both time and frequency domains and its ability to adapt human visual characteristics, wavelet transform has unique advantage in images compression. In the proposed wavelet compression original image is decomposed into multi-scale bands. Different scale factors are employed in the quantization of wavelet decomposed images in different bands. For the lowest band, a predictor is designed and error signal is entropy coded. For high scale bands, runlength coding for toro run is used with Huffman coding. From simulation with magnetic resonance images($256\times256$ size, 256 graylevels) the proposed algorithm is superior to the JPEG by more than 2.5 dB in near lossless compression (CR = 8 - 10).

Data storage and data communication currently pose a major problems for all parties involved with power quality and power system monitoring. The Problem aries from the tremendous amount of data involved. There is a common desire in the power industry to find new techniques for high-accuracy data compression and data storage. This paper introduces a data compression technique that is very suitable for application to power quality waveforms. The proposed technique is applied in splitting the monitored signal into two components. Those are stationary and nonstationary components. Each component is compressed and encoded.

For the purpose of modeling EEG signal which has nonstationary and nonlinear dynamic characteristics, this paper propose a state feedback real time recurrent neural network model. The state feedback real time recurrent neural network is structured to have memory structure in the state of hidden layers so that it has arbitrary dynamics and ability to deal with time-varying input through its own temporal operation. For the model test, Mackey-Glass time series is used as a nonlinear dynamic system and the model is applied to the prediction of three types of EEG, alpha wave, beta wave and epileptic EEG. Experimental results show that the performance of the proposed model is better than that of other neural network models which are compared in this paper in some view points of the converging speed in learning stage and normalized mean square error for the test data set.

The formulas taking into account the fundamental features of a meteoric radio propagation are obtained. Numerical simulation analysis has shown complex space structure of a field. Time behavior of intensity are researched taking into account nonstationary model. It is shown, this behavior essentially depends on parameters of a meteor trail, and that there is large variety of time dependencies of the signal intensity at the single scattering. In particular, at appropriate parameters of a meteor underdense trail it is possible large duration meteor bursts with which usually refer to an overdense meteor propagation.

In this paper, a double loop control model using leaky delay LMS algorithm are proposed for active noise control. The proposed double loop control model estimates the loudspeaker characteristic and the error path transfer function with on-line using only gain and acoustic time delay to reduce computation burden. The control of error signal through double loop control scheme makes the more robust cntrol system. The input signal of filter to estimate acoustic time delay is used difference between input signal of input microphone and adaptive filter output. And also, in nonstationary environments, the leaky delay LMS algorithm is employed to counteract parameter drift of delay LMS algorithm. For practical noise signal, the proposed double loop control model reduces noise level about 12.9 dB.

Dynamic neural networks have been applied to diverse fields requiring temporal signal processing such as signal prediction. This paper proposes the hybrid network, composed of locally(LRNN) and globally recurrent neural networks(GRNN), to improve dynamics of multilayered recurrent networks(RNN) and then describes nonlinear adaptive prediction using the proposed network as an adaptive filter. The hybrid network consists of IIR-MLP and Elman RNN as LRNN and GRNN, respectively. The proposed network is evaluated in nonlinear signal prediction and compared with Elman RNN and IIR-MLP networks for the relative comparison of prediction performance. Experimental results show that the hybrid network performs better with respect to convergence speed and accuracy, indicating that the proposed network can be a more effective prediction model than conventional multilayered recurrent networks in nonlinear prediction for nonstationary signals.
