Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nowadays, adaptive filtering and machining learning are related, and have been widely used in practice. Adaptive filtering is mainly used for online applications, and machine learning is used for offline applications. The Journal Symmetry dominantly focuses on natural sciences, and its subject named Computer and Engineering Science is the area which also exploits statistical signal processing similar as adaptive filtering and machine learning. The relation between adaptive filtering and machine learning is an interesting topic that is worth to exploit the advanced signal processing methods, efficiently. The methods developed in adaptive filtering and machine learning can be used to effectively address the problems of denoising for audio signal and image, system identification, channel equalization, navigation, recognition and classification of signals including speech, audio, image, and video, and distributed estimation, and so on. The symmetry and asymmetry regarding the loss function and network structure can also be future directions for combination of adaptive filtering and machine learning in practical applications. The obtained methods will promote the mutual development of adaptive filtering and machine learning.

This special issue not only welcomes original research and review articles regarding recent developments of adaptive filtering and machine learning, but also an overview on the applications of these two topics. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:

Keywords: Adaptive filter, Kalman filter, Robustness, Noise, Supervised learning, Graphical signal processing, Complex signal, Quaternion adaptive filter, Echo cancellation, Speech recognition, Quantization.

Recommender systems are widely used in e-commerce, movies, music, social media, and other fields because of their personalized recommendation functions. The recommendation algorithm is used to capture user preferences, item characteristics, and the items that users are interested in are recommended to users. Matrix factorization is widely used in collaborative filtering algorithms because of its simplicity and efficiency. However, the simple dot-product method cannot establish a nonlinear relationship between user latent features and item latent features or make full use of their personalized information. The model of a neural network combined with an attention mechanism can effectively establish a nonlinear relationship between the potential features of users and items and improve the recommendation accuracy of the model. However, it is difficult for the general attention mechanism algorithm to solve the problem of attention interaction when the number of features between the users and items is not the same. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes an attention interaction matrix factorization (AIMF) model. The AIMF model adopts a symmetric structure using MLP calculation. This structure can simultaneously extract the nonlinear features of user latent features and item latent features, thus reducing the computation time of the model. In addition, an improved attention algorithm named slide-attention is included in the model. The algorithm uses the sliding query method to obtain the user’s attention to the latent features of the item and solves the interaction problem among different dimensions of the user, and the latent features of the item.

This paper presents a novel variable matrix-type step-size affine projection sign algorithm (VMSS-APSA) characterized by robustness against impulsive noise. To mathematically derive a matrix-type step size, VMSS-APSA utilizes mean-square deviation (MSD) for the modified version of the original APSA. Accurately establishing the MSD of APSA is impossible. Therefore, the proposed VMSS-APSA derives the upper bound of the MSD using the upper bound of the L1-norm of the measurement noise. The optimal matrix-type step size is calculated at each iteration by minimizing the upper bound of the MSD, thereby improving the filter performance in terms of convergence rate and steady-state estimation error. Because a novel cost function of the proposed VMSS-APSA was designed to maintain a form similar to the original APSA, they have symmetric characteristics. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed VMSS-APSA improves filter performance in a system-identification scenario in the presence of impulsive noise. Full article

Reactive power is the core problem of voltage stability and economical operation in power systems. Aiming at the problem that multi-objective normalization reactive power optimization function is dependent on weight, an integrated synthesis of adaptive multi-objective particle swarm optimization (ISAMOPSO) is proposed to achieve weight adaptive. Through seven test functions and three algorithm comparison experiments, it is proved that the ISAMOPSO algorithm has stronger global search capability and better convergence. Considering the optimal access position and capacity of distributed generation (DG), the ISAMOPSO algorithm is used for three-objective reactive power optimization. Finally, the results indicate that the ISAMOPSO algorithm can not only provide a variety of optimization schemes to meet different needs, but also realize dynamic reactive power optimization, which further proves that the algorithm can provide effective technical support for solving reactive power optimization problems in practical engineering.

Twin extreme learning machine (TELM) is a phenomenon of symmetry that improves the performance of the traditional extreme learning machine classification algorithm (ELM). Although TELM has been widely researched and applied in the field of machine learning, the need to solve two quadratic programming problems (QPPs) for TELM has greatly limited its development. In this paper, we propose a novel TELM framework called Lagrangian regularized twin extreme learning machine (LRTELM). One significant advantage of our LRTELM over TELM is that the structural risk minimization principle is implemented by introducing the regularization term. Meanwhile, we consider the square of the l2-norm of the vector of slack variables instead of the usual l1-norm in order to make the objective functions strongly convex. Furthermore, a simple and fast iterative algorithm is designed for solving LRTELM, which only needs to iteratively solve a pair of linear equations in order to avoid solving two QPPs. Last, we extend LRTELM to semi-supervised learning by introducing manifold regularization to improve the performance of LRTELM when insufficient labeled samples are available, as well as to obtain a Lagrangian semi-supervised regularized twin extreme learning machine (Lap-LRTELM). Experimental results on most datasets show that the proposed LRTELM and Lap-LRTELM are competitive in terms of accuracy and efficiency compared to the state-of-the-art algorithms. Full article

However, the performance surface of maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) is highly non-convex, resulting in low accuracy.

The constrained recursive maximum correntropy criterion (CRMCC) combats the non-Gaussian noise effectively. However, the performance surface of maximum correntropy criterion (MCC) is highly non-convex, resulting in low accuracy. Inspired by the smooth kernel risk-sensitive loss (KRSL), a novel constrained recursive KRSL (CRKRSL) algorithm is proposed, which shows higher filtering accuracy and lower computational complexity than CRMCC. Meanwhile, a modified update strategy is developed to avoid the instability of CRKRSL in the early iterations. By using Isserlis’s theorem to separate the complex symmetric matrix with fourth-moment variables, the mean square stability condition of CRKRSL is derived, and the simulation results validate its advantages.
