• We repeat these steps until we find a treshold value (here 0,1 for the
coefficient s)
• At the beginning, kernel functions are initialized as standard gammatone
functions
The general idea is to iteratively approximate the input signal with successive
orthogonal projections onto the unit-normed gammatone kernels.
As such, we decompose the signal as
(1)
• The projection with the biggest inner product will minimize the power of Rx(t),
thus yielding the best approximation of x(t) with a single kernel. We want to
record the coefficient for this approximation.
Iteratively, (1) becomes
• We then substract the best fitting projection, and record it, leaving
orthogonal to
