Blind signal separation: statistical principles

Blind signal separation (BSS) and independent component analysis (ICA) are emerging techniques of array processing and data analysis that aim to recover unobserved signals or "sources" from observed mixtures (typically, the output of an array of sensors), exploiting only the assumption of mutual independence between the signals. The weakness of the assumptions makes it a powerful approach, but it requires us to venture beyond familiar second order statistics, The objectives of this paper are to review some of the approaches that have been developed to address this problem, to illustrate how they stem from basic principles, and to show how they relate to each other.
