A Derivative-Free Riemannian Powell's Method, Minimizing Hartley-Entropy-Based ICA Contrast
Abstract:
Even though the Hartley-entropy-based contrast function guarantees an unmixing local minimum, the reported nonsmooth optimization techniques that minimize this nondifferentiable function encounter computational bottlenecks. Toward this, Powell's derivative-free optimization method has been extended to a Riemannian manifold, namely, oblique manifold, for the recovery of quasi-correlated sources by minimizing this contrast function. The proposed scheme has been demonstrated to converge faster than the related algorithms in the literature, besides the impressive source separation results in simulations involving synthetic sources having finite-support distributions and correlated images.

Routh-Hurwitz Criterion I
To apply the Routh-Hurwitz criterion, a Routh table is constructed. The table's rows are labeled with powers of the complex frequency variable s, starting from the...
Routh-Hurwitz Criterion II
The first scenario occurs when a singular zero appears in the first column of the Routh table. This situation creates a division by zero issues. To resolve this, a small positive or negative number, denoted as epsilon (∈), is substituted for the zero. The stability analysis proceeds by assuming a sign for ∈. If ∈ is positive, any sign change in the first...
