Click here to see my recommended reading list. What is Independent Component Analysis (ICA)? If you're already familiar with ICA, feel free to skip below to how we implement it in Python. ICA is a type of dimensionality reduction algorithm that transforms a set of variables to a new set of components; it does so such that that the statistical independence between the new components is maximized. This is similar to Principle Component Analysis (PCA), which maps a collection of variables to statistically uncorrelated components, except that ICA goes a step further by maximizing statistical independence rather than just developing components that are uncorrelated. Like other dimensionality reduction methods, ICA seeks to reduce the number of variables in a set of data, while retaining key information. In the example we…
