A simple threshold nonlinearity for blind separation of sub-Gaussian signals
H Mathis, M. Joho, G.S. Moschytz · 2002
A computationally simple nonlinearity in the form of a threshold device for the blind separation of sub-Gaussian signals is derived. Convergence is shown to be robust, fast, and comparable to that of more complex polynomial nonlinearities. Together with the known signum nonlinearity for super-Gaussian distributions, which basically is a threshold device with the threshold set to zero, the general threshold nonlinearity (with an appropriate threshold) can separate any non-Gaussian signals.
