9 AMUSE and SOBI BSS and ICA Algebraic BSS algorithms AMUSE, SOBI and mdsobi Source assumption translates into diagonallity of certain matrices C i (s) Behavior under linear transformation: C i (As) = AC i (s)a Identification of A by joint diagonalization of C i (x) Example algorithms: AMUSE: C τ (s) := R s (τ) := 1 2 (R s(τ) + R s (τ) ) symmetrized autocovariance matrix at shift τ Using several shifts: SOBI [Belouchrani et al., 1997]

10 BSS and ICA Algebraic BSS algorithms AMUSE, SOBI and mdsobi Multidimensional autocovariances and mdsobi For spatial data sets use M-dimensional autocovariance R s (τ 1,..., τ M ) := E ( s(z 1 + τ 1,..., z M + τ M )s(z 1,..., z M ) ) Estimation from samples as usual (here centered s) Depends on M shifts τ i Very useful for (3d) fmri analysis Advantage: random processes s and x depend on multiple variables (z 1,..., z M ) get multidimensional SOBI [Theis et al., 2004] d cov 2d cov τ respectively (τ1, τ2) (rescaled to N)

15 Spatial and temporal BSS Motivation Models An Algorithm for spatiotemporal BSS Assume data x(r, t) depends on two indices r R n (space) and t R (time) Number of spatial observations: s m Number of temporal observations: t m Contract vector r into 1d index r get data matrix X := (x(r, t)) of dimension s m t m Details on spatial and temporal BSS

16 Motivation Models An Algorithm for spatiotemporal BSS temporal BSS: X = t A t S spatial BSS: X = s A s S Theorem The factorization X = t AS s A into three terms has the trivial solution S = I if the source conditions contain PCA. from above X = t A t S = s S s A spatiotemporal BSS decompose X = s S t S spatial source matrix s S and temporal source matrix t S both have to fulfill some source conditions as much as possible indeterminacies contain at least scaling and permutation

17 Algebraic spatiotemporal BSS Motivation Models An Algorithm for spatiotemporal BSS Spatiotemporal source model temporal condition matrix Ci (X) := C i ( t x(t)) spatial condition matrix Ci (X ) := C i ( s x(r)) Spatiotemporal model C i (X) = C i ( s S t S) = s S C i ( t S) s S C i (X ) = C i ( t S s S) = t S C i ( s S) t S C i ( t S) = s S C i (X) s S C i ( s S) = t S C i (X ) t S find one source matrix by jointly diagonalizing either C i (X) (temporal BSS) or C i (X ) (spatial BSS) use both by double-sided approximate joint diagonalization

18 Motivation Models An Algorithm for spatiotemporal BSS Double-sided approximate joint diagonalization Assume now s m = t m = n, then s S = X t S 1 and C i ( t S) = t S X C i (X)X t S C i ( s S) 1 = t S C i (X ) 1 t S. Perform double-sided JD by JD of {X C i (X)X, C i (X ) 1 i = 1,...} Favor either spatial or temporal separation by weighting factor α [0, 1] and diagonalize {αx C i (X)X, (1 α)c i (X ) 1 i = 1,...} If A is such a diagonalizer, estimate sources by t Ŝ = A 1 and s Ŝ = A X

19 Algorithm Motivation Models An Algorithm for spatiotemporal BSS s m = t m = n yields far to small sample set dimension reduction to n min{ s m, t m} necessary Consider approximate singular value decomposition X = UDV of X pseudo-orthogonal matrices U R s m n and V R t m n diagonal matrix D R n n Theorem 1. Double-sided approximate JD in dimension n is achieved by approximate JD of {αc i (D 1/2 V ), (1 α)c i (D 1/2 U ) 1 i = 1,...} 2. If A is such a joint diagonalizer, the sources are estimated by t Ŝ = A D 1/2 V and s Ŝ = A 1 D 1/2 U

21 Data Source Data Source One-Dimensional stsobi Comparisons fmri data from 6 subjects performing a visual task 5 slices with 100 images were acquired (TR/TE = 3000/60 msec) Spatial resolution mm Oriented parallel to the calcarine fissure 10 repetitions of simulation and rest periods Photic stimulation using a 8 Hz alternating checkerboard with central fixation point The first scans were discarded for remaining saturation effects Here results only from the first subject are presented We used the (multidimensional) SOBI source condition

28 Time-courses Data Source One-Dimensional stsobi Comparisons Compare the recovered time courses of the stimulus component for different α Similar when at least some temporal separation is performed Indicates that the algorithm is rather robust to the choice of the weight α Confirms the advantages of spatiotemporal separation
