Sparse component analysis and blind source separation of underdetermined mixtures

摘要

In this letter, we solve the problem of identifying matrices S /spl isin/ /spl Ropf//sup n/spl times/N/ and A /spl isin/ /spl Ropf//sup m/spl times/ knowing only their multiplication X = AS, under some conditions, expressed either in terms of A and sparsity of S (identifiability conditions), or in terms of X (sparse component analysis (SCA) conditions). We present algorithms for such identification and illustrate them by examples.
