This document proposes an individual activation factor proportional normalized least mean square (IAF-PNLMS) algorithm. The standard PNLMS algorithm uses a single activation factor for all coefficients, which does not distribute gains proportionally for inactive coefficients. IAF-PNLMS uses a separate activation factor for each coefficient that converges to the coefficient magnitude, distributing gains more proportionally. Numerical simulations show IAF-PNLMS converges faster than PNLMS and IPNLMS for sparse impulse responses and adapts faster to plant perturbations.

Reinforcement learning: hidden theory, and new super-fast algorithms
Lecture presented at the Center for Systems and Control (CSC@USC) and Ming Hsieh Institute for Electrical Engineering,
February 21, 2018
Stochastic Approximation algorithms are used to approximate solutions to fixed point equations that involve expectations of functions with respect to possibly unknown distributions. The most famous examples today are TD- and Q-learning algorithms. The first half of this lecture will provide an overview of stochastic approximation, with a focus on optimizing the rate of convergence. A new approach to optimize the rate of convergence leads to the new Zap Q-learning algorithm. Analysis suggests that its transient behavior is a close match to a deterministic Newton-Raphson implementation, and numerical experiments confirm super fast convergence.

WAVELET-PACKET-BASED ADAPTIVE ALGORITHM FOR SPARSE IMPULSE RESPONSE IDENTIFI...bermudez_jcm
Presented at IEEE ICASSP-2007:
This paper proposes a wavelet-packet-based (WPB) algorithm for efficient identification of sparse impulse responses with arbitrary frequency spectra. The discrete wavelet packet transform (DWPT) is adaptively tailored to the energy distribution of the unknown system\'s response spectrum. The new algorithm leads to a reduced number of active coefficients and to a reduced computational complexity, when compared to competing wavelet-based algorithms. Simulation results illustrate the applicability of the proposed algorithm.
In categorical data analysis, the odds ratio is an important approach to quantify the strength of association between two variables in a contingency table. Here, we present a novel Bayesian approach to analyze an unrestricted 2x2 table along with several constructed nuisance parameters using objective Bayesian methods. The prior for the odds ratio has many desirable properties such as propriety, symmetry and finite moments on log scale, and others. Simulation results indicate that the proposed approach to this problem is far superior to the straightforward and widely used frequentist approaches that dominate this area as well as other objective candidates. Real data examples also typically yield more sensible results, especially for small sample sizes or for tables that contain zeros.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. INTRODUCTION
Sparse impulse responses are encountered in many real-world applications:
Communications, acoustics, seismic and chemical processes
NLMS algorithm (the same step-size value for all filter coefficients)
⇒ Slow convergence
Algorithms that exploit the sparse nature of the impulse response:
PNLMS (proportionate normalized least-mean-square)
PNLMS ++ (both the NLMS and PNLMS are used
in the coefficient vector update)
IPNLMS (improved PNLMS)
SC-PNLMS (sparseness controlled PNLMS)
3. INTRODUCTION
The standard PNLMS algorithm Formulation
μG (n) e(n)x(n)
Coefficient update ( N × 1) : w (n + 1) = w (n) +
xT (n)G (n)x(n) + ε
Gain distribution matrix ( N × N ) : G (n) = diag [ g1 (n) g 2 (n) g N (n) ]

Individual gain: gi ( n) = N
∑ φi (n)
i =1
Proportionality function: φi (n) = max ⎡ f (n), wi (n) ⎤
⎣ ⎦
Activation factor: f (n) = ρ max ⎡δ, w (n) ∞ ⎤
⎣ ⎦
4. INTRODUCTION
The standard PNLMS algorithm performance depends on predefined parameters:
δ (initialization)
ρ (proportionality or activation)
• These parameters are related to the algorithm variable, termed
ACTIVATION FACTOR f ( n)
• The initialization parameter permits starting the adaptation process at
n = 0, when all filter coefficients are initialized to zero.
⇒ f (0) = ρ max ⎡δ, w (0) ∞ ⎦ = ρδ
⎣
⎤
• The proportionality parameter prevents an individual coefficient from
freezing when its magnitude is much smaller than the largest coefficient
magnitude.
A central point: How to set suitable values for these parameters,
since they impact the algorithm convergence speed?
5. INTRODUCTION
Activation factor in the standard PNLMS algorithm
Common to all coefficients, computed sample-by-sample.
Depends on w (n) ∞ .
Leads to a gain distribution between the adaptive filter coefficients not
entirely in line with the concept of proportionality.
Proposed approach: Individual activation factor PNLMS (IAF-PNLMS)
An individual activation factor is used for each adaptive filter coefficient.
Each individual activation factor is computed in terms of the
corresponding coefficient magnitude.
Consequence
For impulse responses having high sparseness, numerical simulations show that
the proposed approach has faster convergence as well as faster response to
perturbations of the system plant than both the PNLMS and IPNLMS
algorithms.

Desired condition

g30 (n) > g1 (n)
10. MODIFIED PNLMS ALGORITHM
Features of the standard PNLMS algorithm:
1) When wi (n) is an active coefficient, its gain is always proportional to wi (n) .
2) When wi (n) is inactive, the gain is not proportional to wi (n) .
Objective:
To overcome the drawback (2) by making the gain gi (n)
tend towards being proportional to wi (n) even when
wi (n) is inactive.

11. MODIFIED PNLMS ALGORITHM
Conditions Required for the New Activation Factor fi (n)
C1) fi (n) must converge to the corresponding coefficient magnitude wi (n)
lim [ fi (n) − wi (n) ] = 0 , i = 1, 2, …, N
n→∞
C2) fi (n) must always be greater than zero, i.e.,
f i ( n) > 0 , i = 1, 2, …, N
inactive
If C1 is fulfilled, gi (n) tends to be proportional to wi (n) as n → ∞
C2 ensures that gi (n) > 0 when wi (n) = 0,
avoiding the freezing of wi (n)
12. MODIFIED PNLMS ALGORITHM
Proposed Approach for Computing fi (n)
fi (n) = γ wi (n) + (1 − γ )φi (n − 1)
INTENDED C2
AIM (C1)
where 0 < γ < 1
By considering that no knowledge of the
system plant is available a priori, it is reasonable to choose γ = 1/ 2
The activation factors are initialized
with a small positive constant (typically, fi (0) = 10−2 / N )
13. MODIFIED PNLMS ALGORITHM
For proper algorithm operation, it is required that the instantaneous
magnitude of the estimated coefficients be proportional to the magnitude
of the corresponding plant coefficients.

16. CONCLUSIONS
The IAF-PNLMS algorithm uses an individual activation factor for each
adaptive filter coefficient.
The IAF-PNLMS algorithm presents better gain distribution than the
PNLMS and IPNLMS algorithms.
The IAF-PNLMS algorithm provides an improvement in convergence
speed for plant impulse responses having high sparseness.
