Abstract

To address the sparse system identification problem under noisy input and non-Gaussian output measurement noise, two novel types of sparse bias-compensated normalized maximum correntropy criterion algorithms are developed, which are capable of eliminating the impact of non-Gaussian measurement noise and noisy input. The first is developed by using the correntropy-induced metric as the sparsity penalty constraint, which is a smoothed approximation of the ℓ 0 norm. The second is designed using the proportionate update scheme, which facilitates the close tracking of system parameter change. Simulation results confirm that the proposed algorithms can effectively improve the identification performance compared with other algorithms presented in the literature for the sparse system identification problem.
