Performance analysis of kernel adaptive filters based on RLS algorithm
Résumé
The design of adaptive nonlinear filters has sparked a great interest in the machine learning community. The present paper aims to present some recent developments in nonlinear adaptive filtering. We present an in-depth analysis of the performance and complexity of a class of kernel filters based on the recursive least-squares algorithm. A key feature that underlies kernel algorithms is that they map the data in a high-dimensional feature space where linear filtering is performed. The arithmetic operations are carried out in the initial space via evaluation of inner products between pairs of input patterns called kernels. We evaluated the SNR improvement and the convergence speed of kernel-based recursive least-squares filters on two types of applications: time series prediction and cardiac artifacts extraction from magnetoencephalographic data.
