Course Objective

The main purpose of this lesson is to provide the fundamentals of the blind adaptation methods where the desired response is not needed to perform filtering process differing from the linear (supervised) adaptive filtering methods.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   The students are expected to describe the source separation problem and basics separator structures used for unsupervised filtering problem.
2   The students are expected to formulate the convolutional noisy mixtures, and to perceive the pre-processing techniques such as whitening, PCA and Noise Reduction.
3   The students are expected to understand the theory of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and to realize the ICA algorithm to separate the mixed unknown sources.
4   The students are expected to establish the relation between blind source separation and blind deconvolution techniques.
5   The students are expected to computationally solve blind source separation and blind deconvolution problems used in signal and image processing applications
