- K. Wilson, B. Raj. 2010. Spectrogram dimensionality reductionwith independence constraints. Abstract: We present an algorithm to find a low-dimensional decomposition of a spectrogram by formulating this as a regularized non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) problem with a regularization term chosen to encourage independence. This algorithm provides a better decomposition than standard NMF when the underlying sources are independent. It is directly applicable to non-square matrices, and it makes better use of additional observation streams than previous nonnegative ICA algorithms.
