Novel Method

Blind source separation is a very known problem which refers to finding the original sources without the aid of information about the nature of the sources and the mixing process, to solve this kind of problem having only the mixtures, it is almost impossible , that why using some assumptions is needed in somehow according to the differents situations existing in the real world, for exemple, in laboratory condition, most of tested algorithms works very fine and having good performence because the  nature and the number of the input signals are almost known apriori and then the mixing process is well determined for the separation operation.  But in fact, the real-life scenario is much more different and of course the problem is becoming much more complicated due to the the fact of having the most of the parameters of the linear equation are unknown. In this paper, we present a novel method based on Gaussianity and Sparsity for signal separation algorithms where independent component analysis will be used. The Sparsity as a preprocessing step, then, as a final step, the Gaussianity based source separation block has been used to estimate the original sources. To validate our proposed method, the FPICA algorithm based on BSS technique has been used.

Novel Approaches

Stone's method is one of the novel approaches to the blind source separation (BSS) problem and is based on Stone's conjecture. However, this conjecture has not been proved. We present a simple simulation to demonstrate that Stone's conjecture is incorrect. We then modify Stone's conjecture and prove this modified conjecture as a theorem, which can be used a basis for BSS algorithms.

Good readers evaluate as they go along, open to triggers and alarms which warn that something is not quite right, or that something has not been understood. Evaluation is a vital component of information literacy, a keystone for reading with understanding. It is also a complex, complicated process. Failure to evaluate well may prove expensive. The nature and amount of information on the Internet make evaluation skills ever more necessary. Looking at research studies in reading and in evaluation, real-life problems are suggested for teaching, modelling and discussion, to bring greater awareness to good, and to less good, readers.

Notice: a peer-reviewed version of this preprint has been published in Behavior Research Methods and is available freely at http://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13428-018-1162-0Continuous Flash Suppression (CFS) is a popular method for suppressing visual stimuli from awareness for relatively long periods. Thus far, it has only been used for suppressing two-dimensional images presented on-screen. We present a novel variant of CFS, termed ‘real-life CFS’, with which the actual immediate surroundings of an observer – including three-dimensional, real life objects – can be rendered unconscious. Real-life CFS uses augmented reality goggles to present subjects with CFS masks to their dominant eye, leaving their non-dominant eye exposed to the real world. In three experiments we demonstrate that real objects can indeed be suppressed from awareness using real-life CFS, and that duration suppression is comparable that obtained using the classic, on-screen CFS. We further provide an example for an experimental code, which can be modified for future studies using ‘real-life CFS’. This opens the gate for new questions in the study of consciousness and its functions.

Convolutive Blind Source Separation

<p>An online convolutive blind source separation solution has been developed for use in reverberant environments with stationary sources. Results are presented for simulation and real world data. The system achieves a separation SINR of 16.8 dB when operating on a two source mixture, with a total acoustic delay was 270 ms. This is on par with, and in many respects outperforms various published algorithms [1],[2]. A number of instantaneous blind source separation algorithms have been developed, including a block wise and recursive ICA algorithm, and a clustering based algorithm, able to obtain up to 110 dB SIR performance. The system has been realised in both Matlab and C, and is modular, allowing for easy update of the ICA algorithm that is the core of the unmixing process.</p>

Geguntangan adalah pesantian dalam upacara keagamaan yang diiringi dengan gamelan. Indra  pendengaran manusia cenderung memiliki keterbatasan, yang menyebabkan tidak semua vokal yang  tercampur dengan gamelan bisa didengar jelas. Oleh karena itu diperlukan suatu sistem yang dapat digunakan untuk memisahkan vokal dengan gamelan pada geguntangan. Pemisahan sumber suara ini dikategorikan sebagai Blind Source Separation (BSS) atau disebut juga Blind Signal Separation yang  artinya sumber tidak dikenal. Algoritma yang digunakan untuk menangani BSS adalah algoritma Independent Component Analysis (ICA) dan Sparse Component Analysis (SCA) dengan berfokus  pada pemisahan sinyal suara pada file suara berformat *.wav. Algoritma SCA dan ICA digunakan  untuk proses pemisahan suara dengan parameter nilai yang digunakan adalah Mean Square Error (MSE) dan Signalto Interference Ratio(SIR). Dari hasil simulasi menunjukkan Hasil perhitungan MSE dan SIR dengan dengan menggunakan mixing matriks [0.3816, 0.8678], [0.8534, -0.5853] didapatkan untuk metode ICA nilai MSE sebesar 4.169380402433175 x 10-6 untuk instrumennya dan 2.884749383815846 x 10-5 untuk vokalnya dan didapatkan nilai SIR sebesar 53.79928479270223 untuk instrumennya dan 45.39891910741724 untuk vokalnya. Selanjutnya untuk metode SCA, nilai MSE sebesar 3.382207103335018 x 10-5 untuk instrumennya dan 3.099942460987607 x 10-5 untuk vokalnya dan didapatkan nilai SIR sebesar 44.707998026869014 untuk instrumennya dan 45.08646367168143 untuk vokalnya.
