Abstract

We propose a new algorithm for Independent Component Extraction that extracts one non-Gaussian component and is capable to exploit the non-Gaussianity of background signals without decomposing them into independent components. The algorithm is suitable for situations when the signal to be extracted is determined through initialization; it shows an extra stable convergence when the target component is dominant. In simulations, the proposed method is compared with Natural Gradient and One-unit FastICA, and it yields improved results in terms of the Signal-to-Interference ratio and the number of successful extractions.

Notes

  1. 1.

    A particular variant of these algorithms (OGICE\(_\mathbf{w}\)) coincides with a method proposed earlier by Pham in [12], which was derived based on a simplified form of mutual information that is valid for Gaussian background.

  2. 2.

    Note that the separated sources by NG are not reordered after the separation, because the BSE problem is assumed to be resolved correctly only if the SOI appears in the assumed output channel.
