Adaptive Learning Methods for Nonlinear System Modeling presents some of the recent advances on adaptive algorithms and machine learning methods designed for nonlinear system modeling and identification. Real-life problems always entail a certain degree of nonlinearity, which makes linear models a non-optimal choice. This book mainly focuses on those methodologies for nonlinear modeling that involve any adaptive learning approaches to process data...

This book presents an alternative and simplified approaches for the robust adaptive detection and beamforming in wireless communications. It adopts several systems models including DS/CDMA, OFDM/MIMO with antenna array, and general antenna arrays beamforming model. It presents and analyzes recently developed detection and beamforming algorithms with an emphasis on robustness. In addition, simplified and efficient robust adaptive detection and beamforming...

This book provides an updated description of the most relevant types of highly nonlinear fibers. It also describes some of their actual applications for nonlinear optical signal processing. Multiple types of highly nonlinear fibers are considered, such as silica-based conventional highly nonlinear fibers, tapered fibers, photonic crystal fibers, and fibers made of highly nonlinear materials, namely lead-silicate, tellurite, bismuth oxide, and chalcogenide...

Detailed summary in vernacular field.

"This book fills the gap between the literature on nonlinear filters and nonlinear observers by presenting a new state estimation strategy, the smooth variable structure filter (SVSF). The book is a valuable resource to researchers outside of the control society, where literature on nonlinear observers is less well-known. SVSF is a predictor-corrector estimator that is formulated based on a stability theorem, to confine the estimated states within...

"This book has several objectives. First of all, we lay the groundwork by offering a brief review of the optical switching and networking and the significant successes of recent decades, highlighting key enabling technologies and techniques that have paved the way for modern optical switching networks. We will next explore the broad overview of the future of optical switching and identify important milestones in the development of optical switches...
