Independent component analysis (ICA) methods have received growing attention as effective data-mining tools for microarray gene expression data. As a technique of higher-order statistical analysis, ICA is capable of extracting biologically relevant gene expression features from microarray data. Herein we have reviewed the latest applications and the extended algorithms of ICA in gene clustering...

Tree-dependent component analysis (TCA) is a generalization of independent component analysis (ICA), the goal of which is to model the multivariate data by a linear transformation of latent variables, while latent variables fit by a tree-structured graphical model. In contrast to ICA, TCA allows dependent structure of latent variables and also consider non-spanning trees (forests). In this pape...

The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...

  In this paper, we propose a nonparametric rank-based alternative to the least-squares independent component analysis algorithm developed. The basic idea is to estimate the squared-loss mutual information, which used as the objective function of the algorithm, based on its copula density version. Therefore, no marginal densities have to be estimated. We provide empirical evaluation of th...

This contribution describes the monitoring on a pilot-scale sequencing batch reactor (SBR) using a batchwise multiway independent component analysis method (MICA) which can extract meaningful hidden information from non-Gaussian data. Given that independent component analysis (ICA) is superior to principal component analysis (PCA) to extract features from non-Gaussian data sets, the use of ICA ...

Independent component analysis (ICA), a data-driven approach utilizing high-order statistical moments to find maximally independent sources, has found fruitful application in functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). A limitation of the standard fMRI ICA model is that a given component's time course is required to have the same delay at every voxel. As spatially varying delays (SVDs) may be...

In this paper, independent component analysis (ICA) is used for blind source separation of biomedical signals. Visual and quantitative tests of the ability of ICA to separate signals were performed using a fast ICA algorithm. Results obtained from simulated and FECG signals show that the ICA performance using the whitening matrix of the mixed signals was superior to that of random initial weights.

Image separation is defined as decomposing a real world image mixture into individual images objects. Independent component analysis is an active area of research and is being utilized for its capability in statistically independent separation images. Neural network algorithm ICA has been used to extract interference and mixed images and a very rapid developed statistical method during last few...

We present a generalization of independent component analysis (ICA), where instead of looking for a linear transform that makes the data components independent, we look for a transform that makes the data components well fit by a tree-structured graphical model. This tree-dependent component analysis (TCA) provides a tractable and flexible approach to weakening the assumption of independence in...
