Boosted LMS-based piecewise linear adaptive filters
(IEEE, 2016) Kari, Dariush; Marivani, Iman; Delibalta, İ.; Kozat, Süleyman Serdar
We introduce the boosting notion extensively used in different machine learning applications to adaptive signal processing literature and implement several different adaptive filtering algorithms. In this framework, we have several adaptive constituent filters that run in parallel. For each newly received input vector and observation pair, each filter adapts itself based on the performance of the other adaptive filters in the mixture on this current data pair. These relative updates provide the boosting effect such that the filters in the mixture learn a different attribute of the data providing diversity. The outputs of these constituent filters are then combined using adaptive mixture approaches. We provide the computational complexity bounds for the boosted adaptive filters. The introduced methods demonstrate improvement in the performances of conventional adaptive filtering algorithms due to the boosting effect.

Wheat and hazelnut inspection with impact acoustics time-frequency patterns
(ASABE, 2007-06) İnce, N. F.; Onaran, İbrahim; Tewfik, A. H.; Kalkan, H.; Pearson, T.; Çetin, A. Enis; Yardimci, Y.
Kernel damage caused by insects and fungi is one of the most common reason for poor flour quality. Cracked hazelnut shells are prone to infection by cancer producing mold. We propose a new adaptive time-frequency classification procedure for detecting cracked hazelnut shells and damaged wheat kernels using impact acoustic emissions recorded by dropping wheat kernels or hazelnut shells on a steel plate. The proposed algorithm is based on a flexible local discriminant bases (F-LDB) procedure. The F-LDB method combines local cosine packet analysis and a frequency axis clustering approach which supports individual time and frequency band adaptation. Discriminant features are extracted from the adaptively segmented acoustic signal, sorted according to a Fisher class separability criterion, post processed by principal component analysis and fed to linear discriminant. We describe experimental results that establish the superior performance of the proposed approach when compared with prior techniques reported in the literature or used in the field. Our approach achieved classification accuracy in paired separation of undamaged wheat kernels from IDK, Pupae and Scab damaged kernels with 96%, 82% and 94%. For hazelnuts the accuracy was 97.1%.
