Maximum likelihood localization of multiple sources by alternating projection

Ziskind, I., Wax, M.·1988·IEEE Transactions on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing

Abstract

An algorithm, referred to as APM, for computing the maximum-likelihood estimator of the locations of simple sources in passive sensor arrays is presented. The algorithm is equally applicable to the case of coherent signals and to the case of a single snapshot. The algorithm is iterative; the maximum of the likelihood function is computed by successive approximations. The convergence of the algorithm to the global maximum is demonstrated for a variety of scenarios. The key to this global convergence is the initialization scheme.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
