Blind Source Separation Of Graph Signals

With a change of signal notion to graph signal, new means of performing blind source separation (BSS) appear. Particularly, existing independent component analysis (ICA) methods exploit the non-Gaussianity of the signals or other types of prior information. For graph signals, such prior information is present in a graph of dependencies in the signals. We propose BSS of graph signals which uses the prior information presented by the signal graph together with non-Gaussianity. We derive the identifiability conditions for the proposed method and compare them to the conditions when only graph or non-Gaussianity approach is used. In simulation studies, we verify that the new method can separate a broader range of graph signals and show that it is also more efficient when both approaches are useful.
