Temporal Bayesian Ying-Yang dependence reduction, blind source separation and principal independent components

Lei Xu

Abstract: A general recursive temporal BYY dependence reduction system, previously proposed by the author (1998), has been further re-elaborated systematically. Three new developments have been also made. A temporal independent component analysis (ICA) algorithm is proposed for separating blind sources from observations without sensor noise. The other two studies are for solving blind source separation problems with sensor noise of binary and real temporal sources, respectively. Moreover, the problem of how to determine principal independent components is addressed with criteria provided.
