Fuzzy Local ICA for Extracting Independent Components Related to External Criteria
نویسندگان
چکیده
Independent component analysis (ICA) is an unsupervised technique for blind source separation, and the ICA algorithms using nongaussianity as the measure of mutual independence have been also used for projection pursuit or visualization of multivariate data for knowledge discovery in databases (KDD). However, in real applications, it is often the case that we fail to extract useful latent variables because they have no connection with predefined criterion variables. This paper proposes an enhanced technique of ICA, which extracts independent components closely related to some external criteria. Preprocessing is performed by using fuzzy regression-principal component analysis, which estimates latent variables that have high correlation with the external criteria considering local data structure.

متن کاملExtracting Task-related Components in Functional Mri
To extract consistently and transiently task-related component maps, a novel ICA paradigm, the ICA with reference (ICA-R), is proposed. ICA-R produces only component maps corresponding to the input stimuli which are used as reference signals in the learning paradigm, and all activations corresponding to a particular stimulus are located in a single component map. Computational and memory requir...
متن کاملIndependent Component Analysis of Event-Related Potentials
Independent component analysis (ICA) is a potentially powerful tool for analyzing eventrelated potentials (ERPs), one of the most popular measures of brain function in cognitive neuroscience. Based on the statistics of the electroencephalogram (EEG), from which ERPs are derived, ICA may be able to extract multiple, functionally distinct sources of an ERP generated by disparate regions of cerebr...
متن کاملFuncICA for Time Series Pattern Discovery
We introduce FuncICA, a new independent component analysis method for pattern discovery in inherently functional data, such as time series data. We show how applying the dual of temporal ICA to temporal data, and likewise applying the dual of spatiotemporal ICA to spatiotemporal data, enables independent component regularization not afforded by the primal forms applied to their original domains...
متن کاملICA of fMRI group study data.
This paper proposes to extend independent component analysis (ICA) of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from single subjects to simultaneous analysis of data from a group of subjects. This results in a set of time courses which are common to the whole group, together with an individual spatial response pattern for each of the subjects in the group. The method is illustrated usin...
