We apply belief propagation to a Bayesian bipartite graph composed of discrete independent hidden variables and discrete visible variables. The network is the Discrete counterpart of Independent Component Analysis (DICA) and it is manipulated in a factor graph form for inference and learning. A full set of simulations …

We apply both distance-based (Jin and Matteson, 2017) and kernel-based (Pfister et al., 2016) mutual dependence measures to independent component analysis (ICA), and generalize dCovICA (Matteson and Tsay, 2017) to MDMICA, minimizing empirical dependence measures as an objective function in both deflation and parallel m…
Many data-driven approaches exist to extract neural representations of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data, but most of them lack a proper probabilistic formulation. We propose a group level scalable probabilistic sparse factor analysis (psFA) allowing spatially sparse maps, component pruning using automa…
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) - one of the basic tools in data analysis - aims to find a coordinate system in which the components of the data are independent. In this paper we present Multiple-weighted Independent Component Analysis (MWeICA) algorithm, a new ICA method which is based on approximate diagonalizat…
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is a dimensionality reduction technique that can boost efficiency of machine learning models that deal with probability density functions, e.g. Bayesian neural networks. Algorithms that implement adaptive ICA converge slower than their nonadaptive counterparts, however, they are cap…

Correlated component analysis as proposed by Dmochowski et al. (2012) is a tool for investigating brain process similarity in the responses to multiple views of a given stimulus. Correlated components are identified under the assumption that the involved spatial networks are identical. Here we propose a hierarchical pr…
Improves model predictability by mixing forecasts and orthogonalizing models.
Independent component analysis (ICA) decomposes multivariate data into mutually independent components (ICs). The ICA model is subject to a constraint that at most one of these components is Gaussian, which is required for model identifiability. Linear non-Gaussian component analysis (LNGCA) generalizes the ICA model t…

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. Treating the problem as a semiparametric statistical prob…

Principal component analysis (PCA) is very popular to perform dimension reduction.

Independent component analysis (ICA) has been widely used for blind source separation in many fields such as brain imaging analysis, signal processing and telecommunication. Many statistical techniques based on M-estimates have been proposed for estimating the mixing matrix. Recently, several nonparametric methods have…
We present a new method for the separation of superimposed, independent, auto-correlated components from noisy multi-channel measurement. The presented method simultaneously reconstructs and separates the components, taking all channels into account and thereby increases the effective signal-to-noise ratio considerably…
We develop a coherent framework for integrative simultaneous analysis of the exploration-exploitation and model order selection trade-offs. We improve over our preceding results on the same subject (Seldin et al., 2011) by combining PAC-Bayesian analysis with Bernstein-type inequality for martingales. Such a combinatio…
Subjective classification of galaxies can mislead us in the quest of the origin regarding formation and evolution of galaxies since this is necessarily limited to a few features. The human mind is not able to apprehend the complex correlations in a manyfold parameter space, and multivariate analyses are the best tools …

Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) models provide elegant methods for discovering underlying latent features within a data set, but inference in such models can be slow.

Independent component analysis (ICA) is a cornerstone of modern data analysis. Its goal is to recover a latent random vector S with independent components from samples of X=AS where A is an unknown mixing matrix. Critically, all existing methods for ICA rely on and exploit strongly the assumption that S is not Gaussian…
Independent component analysis (ICA) is a statistical method for transforming an observable multi-dimensional random vector into components that are as statistically independent as possible from each other. Usually the ICA framework assumes a model according to which the observations are generated (such as a linear tra…

In particular, we consider the case in which the components are independently but not identically distri…
