Blind Equalization Using a Predictive Radial Basis Function Neural Network
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel blind equalization approach based on radial basis function (RBF) neural networks. By exploiting the short-term predictability of the system input, a RBF neural net is used to predict the inverse filter output. It is shown here that when the prediction error of the RBF neural net is minimized, the coefficients of the inverse system are identical to those of the unknown system. To enhance the identification performance in noisy environments, the improved least square (ILS) method based on the concept of orthogonal distance to red the estimation bias caused by additive measurement noise is proposed here to perform the training. The convergence rate of the ILS learning is analyzed, and the asymptotic mean square error (MSE) of the proposed predictive RBF identification method is derived theoretically. Monte Carlo simulations show that the proposed method is effective for blind system identification. The new blind technique is then applied to two practical applications: equalization of real-life radar sea clutter collected at the east coast of Canada and deconvolution of real speech signals. In both cases, the proposed blind equalization technique is found to perform satisfactory even when the channel effects and measurement noise are strong.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
