چکیده

An improved method for independent component analysis based on the diagonalization of cumulant tensors is proposed. It is based on Comon’s algorithm [1] but it takes thirdand fourth-order cumulant tensors into account simultaneously. The underlying contrast function is also mathematically much simpler and has a more intuitive interpretation. It is therefore easier to optimize and approximate. A comparison with Comon’s algorithm, JADE [2] and FastICA [3] on different data sets demonstrates its performance.

Optimization of grid independent diesel-based hybrid system for power generation using improved particle swarm optimization algorithm

The power supply of remote sites and applications at minimal cost and with low emissions is an important issue when discussing future energy concepts. This paper presents modeling and optimization of a photovoltaic (PV)/wind/diesel system with batteries storage for electrification to an off-grid remote area located in Rafsanjan, Iran. For this location, different hybrid systems are studied and ...

Principal Cumulant Component Analysis

Multivariate Gaussian data is completely characterized by its mean and covariance, yet modern non-Gaussian data makes higher-order statistics such as cumulants inevitable. For univariate data, the third and fourth scalar-valued cumulants are relatively well-studied as skewness and kurtosis. For multivariate data, these cumulants are tensor-valued, higher-order analogs of the covariance matrix c...

Improving the quality of images synthesized by discrete cosines transform – regression based method using principle component analysis

  Purpose: Different views of an individuals’ image may be required for proper face recognition.   Recently, discrete cosines transform (DCT) based method has been used to synthesize virtual   views of an image using only one frontal image. In this work the performance of two different   algorithms was examined to produce virtual views of one frontal image.   Materials and Methods: Two new meth...

Independent component analysis and (simultaneous) third-order tensor diagonalization

Comon’s well-known scheme for independent component analysis (ICA) is based on the maximal diagonalization, in a least-squares sense, of a higher-order cumulant tensor. In a previous papr, we proved that for fourth-order cumulants, the computation of an elementary Jacobi rotation is equivalent to the computation of the best rank-1 approximation of a fourth-order tensor. In this paper, we show t...

EcoICA: Skewness-based ICA via Eigenvectors of Cumulant Operator

Independent component analysis (ICA) is an important unsupervised learning method. Most popular ICAmethods use kurtosis as a metric of non-Gaussianity to maximize, such as FastICA and JADE. However, their assumption of kurtosic sources may not always be satisfied in practice. For weak-kurtosic but skewed sources, kurtosis-based methods could fail while skewness-based methods seem more promising...
