Abstract
We propose the application of modified recursive least-squares algorithms and least-squares lattice algorithms to echo cancellation problems to provide fast convergence and overcome the effects of the double-talking. The modified algorithms run continuously, but the gain updates become negligibly small during the double-talking intervals. Thus, detection of the double-talking and virtual freezing of the adaptive filter weights are both built into the algorithm. Simulations are used to verify the performance of the proposed algorithms, And the results confirm the theoretical predictions. A comparison of performances of different algorithms applied to real speech signals is also given in the paper.

Lectures on Wiener and Kalman Filtering

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider two random variables X, Y with a known joint density function fx,y(.,.). Assume that in a particular experiment, the random variable Y can be measured and takes the value y. What can be said about the corresponding value of the unobservable variable X?

Windowed fast transversal filters adaptive algorithms with normalization

TL;DR: The normalized FTF algorithms are introduced, at a modest increase in computational requirements, to significantly mitigate the numerical deficiencies inherent in all most-efficient RLS solutions, thus illustrating an interesting and important tradeoff between the growth rate of numerical errors and computational requirements for all fixed-order algorithms.

Adaptive algorithms with an automatic gain control feature

TL;DR: In this paper, an automatic gain control (AGC) scheme is introduced for adaptive algorithms that are used extensively in many applications, which is realized by using an estimate of the cross correlation between the adaptation error and the input signal to control the gain of the adaptive algorithm.

Tracking improvements in fast RLS algorithms using a variable forgetting factor

TL;DR: The concept of a variable forgetting factor (VFF) is incorporated into fast recursive least-squares (FRLS) algorithms and the bias introduced by the use of the VFF is analyzed.
