Abstract

A primary purpose of this paper is to provide a focused tutorial on basic concepts in differential geometry in order to explain the rationale for "natural gradient" adaptation algorithms. A vectorized notation is employed to provide a new derivation of the natural gradient as a pullback. Based on this foundation, contravariant adaptation on structured matrices, such as Bezout, Toeplitz, orthogonal, or Vandermonde, is presented. A target application, with simulations demonstrating results, is blind source separation.
