Abstract:

Estimating overcomplete ICA bases for image windows is a difficult problem. Most algorithms are based on approximations of the likelihood, which leads to computationally heavy procedures. Here we first review the existing methods, and then introduce two algorithms that are based on heuristic approximations and estimate an approximate overcomplete basis quite fast. The algorithms are based on quasi-orthogonality in high-dimensional spaces, and the gaussianization procedure, respectively.
