Biomagnetic multi-channel recordings are typically a superposition of signals from several biological sources of interest and from biological and technical noise sources. Besides averaging, source localization, and spectral analysis to name only a few methods, independent component analysis is an established tool to resolve the superposition present in raw biomagnetic data on a purely statistical basis. Here the time-delayed decorrelation-independent component analysis algorithm is applied to exemplary magnetocardiographic and magnetoencephalographic data and the successful signal separation is demonstrated.
