We study the problem of distributed adaptive estimation over networks where nodes cooperate to estimate physical parameters that can vary over both space and time domains. We use a set of basis functions to characterize the space-varying nature of the para ...
The present paper is the third and last part of an investigation on what determines reliability in fuel cell model identification. In continuation to the effect of experimental design (Part I) and a process method for stochastic calculation of a model's pa ...
We consider the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamforming problems where the array covariance matrix is rank deficient. The conventional approach handles such rank-deficiencies via diagonal loading on the covariance matrix. In this settin ...
It is conjectured that the covariance matrices minimizing the outage probability under a power constraint for multiple-input multiple-output channels with Gaussian fading are diagonal with either zeros or constant values on the diagonal. In the multiple-in ...

The family of natural evolution strategies (NES) offers a principled approach to real-valued evolutionary optimization by following the natural gradient of the expected fitness. Like the well-known CMA-ES, the most competitive algorithm in the field, NES c ...
We study the problem of parametric model-fitting in a finite alphabet setting. We characterize the weak convergence of the goodness-of-fit statistic with respect to an exponential family when the observations are drawn from some alternate distribution. We ...

We consider bearing estimation of multiple narrow-band plane waves impinging on an array of sensors. For this problem, bearing estimation algorithms such as minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR), multiple signal classification, and maximum likeli ...
Inferences related to the second-order properties of functional data, as expressed by covariance structure, can become unreliable when the data are non-Gaussian or contain unusual observations. In the functional setting, it is often difficult to identify a ...
We consider the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamforming problems where the array covariance matrix is rank deficient. The conventional approach handles such rank-deficiencies via diagonal loading on the covariance matrix. In this settin ...
We study the steady-state probability distribution of diffusion and consensus strategies that employ constant step-sizes to enable continuous adaptation and learning. We show that, in the small step-size regime, the estimation error at each agent approache ...
