Simulated Annealing for Independent Component Analysis Over Galois Fields
Daniel G. Silva, Romis Attux · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 2018
Independent Component Analysis over finite fields is an unsupervised signal processing problem that poses a challenging combinatorial optimization task. In this context, a solution based on Simulated Annealing, with an entropy-based objective function, is proposed. The empirical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, with a performance competitive or superior to that of the reference techniques, at an inferior asymptotic computational cost.
