Title: A QUASI-OPTIMALLY EFFICIENT ALGORITHM FOR INDEPENDENT COMPONENT ANALYSIS

Abstract: We propose an incremental algorithm for independent componentanalysis (ICA), that is guided by the statistical efficiency.Starting from a $\ell ^ \infty$ norm sparseness measure contrastfunction, we derive the learning algorithm based on awinner-take-all learning mechanism. It avoids the optimization ofhigh order non-linear function or density estimation, which havebeen used by other ICA methods, such as negentropy approximation,infomax, and maximum likelihood estimation based methods. We showthat when the latent independent random variables aresuper-Gaussian distributions, the network efficiently extracts the independent components. We observed a much faster convergence than other ICA methods.
