Abstract

A new two-dimensional (2D) sample-based conjugate gradient (SCG) algorithm is developed for adaptive filtering. This algorithm is based on the conjugate gradient method of optimization and therefore has a fast convergence characteristic. The SCG is computationally simpler than the recursive least squares (RLS) algorithm. The SCG algorithm with the equation-error and output-error methods is investigated for application in image restoration. Simulation results show that the new algorithm significantly outperforms existing algorithms in the restoration of noisy images.
