PCA finds the directions of maximum variance ICA finds the directions of maximum independence
Principle: Maximize Information • ICA produces brain-like visual filters for natural images. • A: ICA does this -- it maximizes joint entropy & minimizes mutual information between output channels (Bell & Sejnowski, 1995). • Q: How to extract maximum information from multiple visual channels? Set of 144 ICA filters

Functional Brain Imaging • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data are noisy and complex. • ICA identifies concurrent hemodynamic processes. • Does not require a priori knowledge of time courses or spatial distributions.
