Abstract
This paper describes a single unified algorithm for the calculation of elementary functions including multiplication, division, sin, cos, tan, arctan, sinh, cosh, tanh, arctanh, In, exp and square-root The basis for the algorithm is coordinate rotation in a linear, circular, or hyperbolic coordinate system depending on which function is to be calculated The only operations required are shifting, adding, subtracting and the recall of prestored constants The limited domain of convergence of the algorithm is calculated, leading to a discussion of the modifications required to extend the domain for floating point calculations

Recursive least squares ladder estimation algorithms

TL;DR: A Hilbert space approach to the derivations of magnitude normalized signal and gain recursions is presented and normalized forms are expected to have even better numerical properties than the unnormalized versions.

An improved lattice-based adaptive IIR notch filter

TL;DR: A novel lattice-based adaptive infinite impulse response (IIR) notch filter is developed which features independent tuning of the notch frequency and attenuation bandwidth, and the estimation of extremal frequencies is less prone to overflow instability than previously reported structures.
