Class JADENode


Perform Independent Component Analysis using the JADE algorithm.

Note that JADE is a batch-algorithm. This means that it needs all input data before it can start and compute the ICs. The algorithm is here given as a Node for convenience, but it actually accumulates all inputs it receives. Remember that to avoid running out of memory when you have many components and many time samples.

JADE does not support the telescope mode.

__init__(self, limit=0.001, max_it=1000, verbose=False, whitened=False, white_comp=None, white_parm=None, input_dim=None, dtype=None)
(Constructor)

 
Initializes an object of type 'JADENode'.
Parameters:
  • limit (float) - Convergence threshold.
  • max_it (int) - Maximum number of iterations
  • verbose (bool) - Idicates whether information is to be reported about the operation.
  • whitened (bool) - Set whitened == True if input data are already whitened. Otherwise the node will whiten the data itself.
  • white_comp (int) - If whitened == False, you can set 'white_comp' to the number of whitened components to keep during the calculation (i.e., the input dimensions are reduced to white_comp by keeping the components of largest variance).
  • white_parm (dict) - A dictionary with additional parameters for whitening. It is passed directly to the WhiteningNode constructor. Ex: white_parm = { 'svd' : True }
  • input_dim (int) - The input dimensionality.
  • dtype (numpy.dtype or str) - The datatype.
Overrides: object.__init__

core(self, data)

 

This is the core routine of the ICANode.

Each subclass must define this function to return the achieved convergence value. This function is also responsible for setting the ICA filters matrix self.filters.

Note: The matrix self.filters is applied to the right of the matrix containing input data. This is the transposed of the matrix defining the linear transformation.
Parameters:
  • data - The data you want to perform ICA on.
Returns:
The achieved convergence value.
Overrides: ICANode.core
