Analysis of supplementary information emerging from the ICA based ICTD

This paper presents an elaboration of the ICA based ICTD, proposed in [1]. The method is applied on three different datasets and three distinctive aspects of its performances are considered. Firstly, we challenge the initial choice of the ICA algorithm, by testing the suitability of two representative tensorial (fourth-order) and one second-order algorithm. Further, we demonstrate the invariance of the proposed decomposition with respect to both the rotation around the line of sight and the change of polarisation basis. Finally, we analyse the potential of supplementary information contained in the second most dominant component.
