fastICA (version 1.2-3)

ica.R.par: R code for FastICA using a parallel scheme

Description

R code for FastICA using a parallel scheme in which the components are estimated simultaneously. This function is called by the fastICA function.

Usage

ica.R.par(X, n.comp, tol, fun, alpha, maxit, verbose, w.init)

Value

The estimated un-mixing matrix W.

Arguments

X

data matrix.

n.comp

number of components to be extracted.

tol

a positive scalar giving the tolerance at which the un-mixing matrix is considered to have converged.

fun

the functional form of the \(G\) function used in the approximation to negentropy.

alpha

constant in range [1,2] used in approximation to negentropy when fun == "logcosh".

maxit

maximum number of iterations to perform.

verbose

a logical value indicating the level of output as the algorithm runs.

w.init

Initial value of un-mixing matrix.
