Abstract :
The author proposes an approach to blind deconvolution of Bernoulli-Gaussian processes based upon true maximum-likelihood estimation of fixed-dimension quantities. The maximum likelihood estimator is implemented using a stochastic version of the expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. Practical results are in accordance with the known behavior of maximum-likelihood estimates, and the algorithm presents a moderate numerical complexity
