10 10 / 45 Global Design Method at a Glance Multiple local solutions exist for a nonconvex problem Algorithms in finding a locally optimal solution are available Start the local design algorithm from a good initial point How do we secure such a good initial point?

11 11 / LS DESIGN OF ORTHOGONAL FILTER BANKS AND WAVELETS A least squares (LS) design of a conjugate quadrature (CQ) filter of length-n with L vanishing moments (VMs) can be cast as minimize subject to: h T Qh N 1 2m n=0 h n h n+2m = δ m for m = 0, 1,..., (N 2)/2 N 1 ( 1) n n l h n = 0 for l = 0, 1,..., L 1 n=0

12 12 / 45 Local LS Design of CQ Filter Banks An effective direct design method is recently proposed by W.-S. Lu and T. Hinamoto Based on the direct design technique, we develop two local methods Sequential convex-programming (SCP) method Sequential quadratic-programming (SQP) method Both methods produce improved local designs than the direct method

13 13 / 45 Local LS Design of CQ Filter Banks Cont d Sequential Convex-Programming Method Suppose we are in the kth iteration to compute δ h so that h k+1 = h k + δ h reduces the filter s stopband energy and better satisfies the constraints, then h T k+1qh k+1 = δ T h Qδ h + 2δ T h Qh k + h T k Qh k N 1 N 1 ( 1) n n l (δ h ) n = ( 1) n n l (h k ) n n=0 n=0 N 1 2m n=0 (h k ) n (δ h ) n+2m + N 1 2m n=0 N 1 2m δ m (h k ) n (h k ) n+2m n=0 (h k ) n+2m (δ h ) n

14 Local LS Design of CQ Filter Banks Cont d With h bounded to be small, the kth iteration assumes the form minimize subject to: δ T h Qδ h + δ T h g k A k δ h = a k Cδ h b By using SVD to remove the equality constraint, the problem is reduced to minimize subject to: x T ˆQx + xtĝ k Ĉx ˆb We modify the problem to make it always feasible as minimize subject to: x T ˆQx + xtĝ k Fx a which is a convex QP problem. 14 / 45

15 15 / 45 Local LS Design of CQ Filter Banks Cont d Sequential Quadratic-Programming Method The design problem is a general nonlinear optimization problem minimize subject to: f (h) a i (h) = 0 for i = 1, 2,..., p By using the first-order necessary conditions of a local minimizer, the problem can be reduced to minimize subject to: 1 2 δt h W k δ h + δ T h g k A k δ h = a k δ h is small

16 16 / 45 Local LS Design of CQ Filter Banks Cont d where p W k = 2 hf (h k ) (λ k ) i 2 ha i (h k ) i=1 A k = [ h a 1 (h k ) h a 2 (h k ) h a p (h k ) ] T g k = h f (h k ) a k = [ a 1 (h k ) a 2 (h k ) a p (h k ) ] T (13a) (13b) (13c) (13d) By removing the equality constraint using the SVD or QR decomposition, the problem assumes the form of a QP problem. Once the minimizer δ h is found, the next iterate is set to h k+1 = h k + δ h, λ k+1 = (A k A T k ) 1 A k (W k δ h + g k )

17 17 / 45 Global LS Design of Low-Order CQ Filter Banks The LS design problem is a polynomial optimization problem (POP) Two recent breakthroughs in solving POPs Global solutions of POPs are made available by Lasserre s method Sparse SDP relaxation is proposed for global solutions of POPs of relatively larger scales MATLAB toolbox SparsePOP and GloptiPoly can be used to find global solutions of POPs, but only for POPs of limited sizes

26 26 / MIMINAX DESIGN OF ORTHOGONAL FILTER BANKS AND WAVELETS A minimax design of a conjugate quadrature (CQ) filter of length-n with L vanishing moments (VMs) can be cast as minimize subject to: η T(ω) h η for ω Ω N 1 2m n=0 h n h n+2m = δ m for m = 0, 1,..., (N 2)/2 N 1 ( 1) n n l h n = 0 for l = 0, 1,..., L 1 n=0

27 27 / 45 Local Minimax Design of CQ Filter Banks Like the LS design, an effective direct design method is recently proposed by W.-S. Lu and T. Hinamoto Based on the direct design technique, we develop an improved method named the SCP-GN method The SCP-GN method can achieve convergence at a small tolerance ε, by implementing two techniques 1 Constructing Ω by locating magnitude-response peaks 2 A Gauss-Newton method with adaptively controlled weights

28 Local Minimax Design of CQ Filter Banks Cont d In the kth iteration, the problem assumes the form minimize subject to: η T(ω)(h k + δ h) η for ω Ω A kδ h = a k Cδ h b By using SVD of matrix A k to remove the equality constraints, the problem can be reduced to minimize subject to: η T k(ω)x + e k(ω) η for ω Ω Ĉx ˆb As a technical remedy to make the above problem to be always feasible, we modify the problem as minimize subject to: η T k(ω)x + e k(ω) η for ω Ω Fx a which is a second-order cone programming (SOCP) problem for which efficient solvers such as SeDuMi exist. 28 / 45

29 Global Minimax Design of Low-Order CQ Filter Banks Example: Design a globally optimal minimax CQ filter with N = 4, L = 1 and ω a = 0.56π Since the Minimax design problem is a POP, GloptiPoly and SparsePOP can be used to produce the globally optimal solution h (4,1) minimax = However, GloptiPoly and SparsePOP fail to work as long as the filter length N is greater than or equal to 6 29 / 45

30 30 / 45 Global Minimax Design of High-Order CQ Filter Banks Method 1 Globally optimal minimax impulse responses appear to exhibit a pattern similar to that in the LS case Thus, we proposed method 1 in spirit similar to that utilized in the global LS designs by passing the zero-padded impulse response as the initial point for the SCP-GN local method in each round of iteration Method 2 We simply pass the impulse response of the globally optimal LS filter as an initial point for the SCP-GN method to design an optimal minimax filter with the same design specifications

36 Local Design of OCM Filter Banks Cont d Suppose we are in the kth iteration to compute δ so that ĥk+1 = ĥk + δ reduces the PF s stopband energy and better satisfies the PR conditions. Then, ĥ T k+1ˆpĥk+1 = δ T ˆPδ + 2δ T ˆPĥ k + ĥt k ˆPĥk And the kth iteration assumes the form a l,n (ĥk + δ) a l,n (ĥk) + g T l,n (ĥk)δ = 0 for 0 n m 1 and 0 l M/2 1 minimize subject to: δ T ˆPδ + δ T b k G k δ = a k δ is small 36 / 45

37 37 / 45 Local Design of OCM Filter Banks Cont d The equality constraint can be eliminated via SVD of G k = UΣV as Thus, the problem can be cast as δ = V e φ + δ s (18) minimize subject to: φ T Pk φ + φ T bk φ is small The Gauss-Newton technique with adaptively controlled weights is used as a post-processing step to achieve convergence at a small tolerance.
