In this brief, a robust and sparse recursive adaptive filtering algorithm, called convex regularized recursive maximum correntropy (CR-RMC), is derived by adding a general convex regularization penalty term to the maximum correntropy criterion (MCC). An approximate expression for automatically selecting the regularization parameter is also introduced. Simulation results show that the CR-RMC can significantly outperform the original recursive maximum correntropy (RMC) algorithm especially when the underlying system is very sparse. Compared with the convex regularized recursive least squares (CR-RLS) algorithm, the new algorithm also shows strong robustness against impulsive noise. The CR-RMC also performs much better than other LMS-type sparse adaptive filtering algorithms based on MCC.
