Spectral Mixture Decomposition by Least Dependent Component Analysis

Sergey A. Astakhov, Harald Stögbauer, Alexander Kraskov +1

A recently proposed mutual information based algorithm for decomposing data into least dependent components (MILCA) is applied to spectral analysis, namely to blind recovery of con…

Least Dependent Component Analysis Based on Mutual Information

Harald Stögbauer, Alexander Kraskov, Sergey A. Astakhov +1

We propose to use precise estimators of mutual information (MI) to find least dependent components in a linearly mixed signal. On the one hand this seems to lead to better blind so…

Hierarchical Clustering Based on Mutual Information

Alexander Kraskov, Harald Stögbauer, Ralph G. Andrzejak +1

Motivation: Clustering is a frequently used concept in variety of bioinformatical applications. We present a new method for hierarchical clustering of data called mutual informatio…

Hierarchical Clustering Using Mutual Information

Alexander Kraskov, Harald Stoegbauer, Ralph G. Andrzejak +1

We present a method for hierarchical clustering of data called {\it mutual information clustering} (MIC) algorithm. It uses mutual information (MI) as a similarity measure and expl…

Estimating Mutual Information

Alexander Kraskov, Harald Stoegbauer, Peter Grassberger

We present two classes of improved estimators for mutual information , from samples of random points distributed according to some joint probability density . In co…
