Approaching the post nonlinearity of blind mixtures by hybrid neural network

Abstract: It is very difficult to approach the post nonlinearity of blind mixtures. The recent neural networks for separating the post nonlinear blind mixtures are limited to the diagonal nonlinearity. In this paper a hybrid neural network is proposed to separate the post nonlinearly mixed blind signals with cross-channel disturbance. This hybrid network consists of a new neural blind de-mixer for approximating the post nonlinearity and a common network for separating the predicted linear mixtures. The blind de-mixer is made up of two subnets, which in total produce a "weak" nonlinear operator and can approach relatively strong nonlinearity by parameter-tuning. A six-step batch learning algorithm based on the fixed-point algorithm and information backpropagation is deduced. Preliminary results on a blind signal separation problem of two sources and four different types of post nonlinearity indicate the effectiveness of our model.
