A Probability-Based Combination Method for Unsupervised Clustering with Application to Blind Source Separation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Unsupervised clustering algorithms can be combined to improve the robustness and the quality of the results, e.g. in blind source separation. Before combining the results of these clustering methods the corresponding clusters have to be aligned, but usually it is not known which clusters of the employed methods correspond to each other. In this paper, we present a method to avoid this correspondence problem using probability theory. We also present an application of our method in blind source separation. Our approach is better expandable than other stateof-the-art separation algorithms while leading to slightly better results.

High-Dimensional Unsupervised Active Learning Method
In this work, a hierarchical ensemble of projected clustering algorithm for high-dimensional data is proposed. The basic concept of the algorithm is based on the active learning method (ALM) which is a fuzzy learning scheme, inspired by some behavioral features of human brain functionality. High-dimensional unsupervised active learning method (HUALM) is a clustering algorithm which blurs the da...
متن کاملResearch of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information
Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...

متن کاملImage alignment via kernelized feature learning
Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence that is able to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. The primary assumption for most of the machine learning algorithms is that the training set (source domain) and the test set (target domain) follow from the same probability distribution. However, in most of the real-world application...
متن کاملNote Clustering Based on 2-D Source-Filter Modeling for Underdetermined Blind Source Separation
For blind source separation, the non-negative matrix factorization extracts single notes out of a mixture. These notes can be clustered to form the melodies played by a single instrument. A current approach for clustering utilizes a source filter model to describe the envelope over the first dimension of the spectrogram: the frequency-axis. The novelty of this paper is to extend this approach b...
