Abstract
This paper derives an expression for the optimal error nonlinearity in adaptive filter design. Using an energy conservation relation, and some typical assumptions, the choice of the error function is optimized by minimizing the mean-square deviation subject to a fixed rate of convergence. The resulting optimal choice is shown to subsume earlier results as special cases.

Adaptive filters with error nonlinearities: mean-square analysis and optimum design

TL;DR: This paper performs stability and steady-state analysis of adaptive filters with error nonlinearities under weaker conditions than what is usually encountered in the literature, and without imposing any restriction on the color or statistics of the input.

TL;DR: Bregman divergences are used to motivate a generalization of the least mean squared (LMS) algorithm, which can handle generalized linear models where the output of the system is a linear function combined with a nonlinear transfer function.

On the optimum data nonlinearity in LMS adaptation

TL;DR: The effect of an arbitrary nonlinear operation on the data input to the weight update equation in the LMS adaptive algorithm is investigated for a Gaussian data model and the optimum nonlinearity is shown to be linear when the product of the algorithm step size and input power is much less than unity.

Time-domain feedback analysis of adaptive gradient algorithms via the small gain theorem

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a time-domain feedback analysis of gradient-based adaptive schemes with emphasis on stability and robustness issues, and show that an intrinsic feedback structure, mapping the noise sequence and the initial weight guess to the a priori estimation errors and the final weight estimate, can be associated with such schemes.
