The generalized Gaussian model (GGM) is presented in ICA algorithm since it can model non- Ganssian statistical structure of different source signals easily. By inferring only one parameter, a wide class of statistical distributions can be characterized. By using maximum likelihood (ML) approach and natural gradient descent, the learning rules of blind source separation (BSS) based on GGM are presented. The experiment of the ship-radiated noise demonstrates that the GGM can model the distributions of the ship-radiated noise and sea noise efficiently, and the learning rules based on GGM gives more successful separation results after comparing it with several conventional methods such as high order cumnlants and Gaussian mixture density function.展开更多

The optimal distribution of the extrinsic information is dynamically specified for each component decoder.The simulation results show that the iterative decoder with the new technique outperforms that of the decoder with the traditional Gaussian approach for the extrinsic information under the same conditions.展开更多

It can effectively avoid the problems caused by the wrong setting of the model. In the variable selection based on Bayesian empirical likelihood, the penalty term is introduced into the model in the form of parameter prior. In this paper, we propose a novel variable selection method, L<sub>1/2</sub> regularization based on Bayesian empirical likelihood. The L<sub>1/2</sub> penalty is introduced into the model through a scale mixture of uniform representation of generalized Gaussian prior, and the posterior distribution is then sampled using MCMC method. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed method can have better predictive ability when the error violates the zero-mean normality assumption of the standard parameter model, and can perform variable selection.展开更多

It has been shown that blind identification via decorrelating sub-channels method could recover the input sources. The Blind Identification via Decorrelating Sub-channels(BIDS)algorithm first constructs a set of decorrelators, which decorrelate the output signals of subchannels, and then estimates the channel matrix using the transfer functions of the decorrelators and finally recovers the input signal using the estimated channel matrix. In this paper, a new approximation of the input source for FIR-MIMO channels based on the maximum likelihood source separation method is proposed. The proposed method outperforms BIDS in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise.展开更多
