After computation of local estimates, the information is diffused among processing elements (or nodes) non-uniformly in time by conditioning the information transfer on level-crossings of the diffused parameter, resulting in a greatly reduced communication requirement. We provide the mean stability analysis of our algorithms, and illustrate the gain in communication efficiency compared to other reducedcommunication distributed estimation schemes.EnglishSignal processingCommunication efficiencyCommunication resourcesDiffusion strategiesDistributed estimationDistributed processingInformation transfersProcessing elementsThree orders of magnitudeAdaptive filtersConference Paper10.1109/EUSIPCO.2016.7760496
