Abstract:

In this paper, we present experimental results on a nonlinear independent component analysis approach based on Bayesian ensemble learning. The theory of the method is discussed in a companion paper. Simulations with artificial and natural data demonstrate the feasibility and good performance of the proposed approach. We also discuss the relationships of the method to other existing methods.
