Abstract :
A new method for separating linear mixtures of statistically independent signals with super-Gaussian probability distributions, using a simple neural network, is proposed. The procedure is based on geometric properties, and it is shown that the maxima of the mixed density distribution belong to straight lines, the direction vectors of which, when taken as columns of a matrix, comprise a demixing matrix. The results obtained with synthetic mixtures of real speech signals are shown
