空間的ブラインド信号分離のための異方性局所共分散行列

This paper aims to introduce a novel approach to spatial blind source separation (SBSS) that addresses the limitations of existing methods. Current SBSS techniques rely on the joint diagonalization of multiple local covariance functions, all of which assume isotropy. To overcome this constraint, anisotropic local covariance matrices that relax the isotropy assumption are proposed. A simulation study and an application on real-world data demonstrate the performance improvement obtained by incorporating these anisotropic covariance matrices into the SBSS framework and highlight the potential of this new approach for more accurate and flexible source separation in spatial data analysis.
