Blind signal deconvolution based on pulsed neuron model

Abstract

In this paper, we consider the vector-matrix model of a pulsed neuron, focused on solving problems of digital signal processing. We extend the application domain of the model to the blind signal deconvolution problem. To achieve this goal we propose an unsupervised learning algorithm, which maximizes the absolute value of the normalized kurtosis of the output signal of the deconvolution filter using vector-matrix model of a pulsed neuron. To show the validity of the proposed learning algorithm, some examples of deconvolution of speech signals distorted by reverberation are presented.
