Doug's original signature analysis technique calculates the equalizer
coefficients from scratch, not by incremental adaptation.  Noise is averaged
out by integrating successive coefficient determinations.  So, when there is
a concealed-path / revealed-path change in the echo spectrum, the equalizer
can update very rapidly without having to wait for errors to accumulate.

Later work uses a parallel equalizer approach, with decision feedback being
used to reduce long post-echoes.
