Abstract In this article, we investigate the application of blind source separation methods to extract independent components from signals recorded at the output of detectors used in γ-ray spectrometry. First, we calculate the probability density and the autocorrelation functions of each recorded signal. This allowed us to confirm that the independent component analysis algorithms, based on the computation of higher order statistics, are the best one to solve the blind source separation problem in our case of study. Among all algorithms of this approach, only four are found to be stable. The classification of these algorithms according to their performance index of separability showed that the symmetric pre-whitening algorithm is the most efficient one to achieve the separation task. Tests were performed in the presence and the absence of gamma radiation emitter.

2 394 Abdelhamid Mekaoui et al.. Introduction Blind source separation (BSS)) designatess the methods used for solving the t problem of recovering mutually independent components, called sources, from a set of measured observations [], [2]. These last, which are recordedd from sensors (antennas, microphones, cameras, detectors,...), are mixtures formed, throughh a system H, during the propagation of the information fromm its original sources s( (k) to sensors and also from the noise ν(k) introduced by thee sensors themselves [ ], [2]. The figure bellow illustrates the BSS problem []. Figure : Bloc diagram illustrating the basic BSS problem []. Since the BSS methods requiree no hypothesis on thee way that the signal and the noise are mixed, they are increasingly used in wide number n of applications in diverse fields such as telecommunications, astronomy, seismology, biomedical engineering, [], [2]. In the literature, we have not yett found a research survey on the application of BSS methods in the field of nuclear signal and image processing. This encouraged us to apply these methods to the identification and characterization of γ-rayy and neutron emitters and also for the neutron-gamma discrimination. In this paper, we consider the application of BSS techniques to analyze HPGe preamplifier s output signals. Indeed, we performed various tests, both in the t presence and absence of γ-ray emitters, in order to determine the best algorithm which will allow us to recover r the independent components of our spectrometric data, for characterization and classification use. 2. Material and Method 2.. Signal database The signal database is formed by 28 signals, of size of samples, issued from a γ-rayy spectrometry chain used for environmentall monitoringg application. Indeed, we used a high performance e digital oscilloscope ( Model Tektronix 34)
3 Application of blind source separation algorithms 395 [3] to record the preamplifier s output signals of HPGe Well Detector (Model GC38) [4] at a sampling frequency of MHz. We performed two experiments both in the presence and in the absence of a gamma radiation emitter. For nuclear safety and security reasons, we used a 4M solution of one radionuclide whose gamma disintegration is limited and its time-life is short [5], [6] BSS formalism As shown in the above figure, we can express the blind source separation problem in matrix form using the following equation: where: x( k) = H s( k) + ν ( k) ( eq.) x(k) [ x (k), x (k),, x (k)] T = 2 m represents an m-dimensional vector that corresponds to the m observations. In our application, x(k) is formed by the recorded HPGe preamplifiers output signals; s(k) = [ s (k), s (k),, s (k)] T 2 n designates the vector of n independent components to be estimated; ν(t) is an additive noise vector. Each observation x i (k) is assumed to be an instantaneous mixture of m unknown components or sources s i (k), via the unknown n-by-m mixing matrix H [], [2]. The BSS approaches use the observation x(k) and nothing else to generate an n-by-m separating matrix W (that approximates H - ) such as the vector y(k), defined by the equation 2 below, contains components that are as independent as possible [], [2]. y ( k) = W x( k) ( eq.2) Many different BSS algorithms exist, their principles are regrouped, according to [] into four major approaches. In order to define which one of the BSS families is the most effective to our study, we proceeded to calculate the autocorrelation and the probability density functions of each observation. Indeed, some BSS approaches exploit the gaussianity of the observations as hypothesis to perform the separation task, whereas others take into account the non stationarity, the second order statistics and/or the correlation information to estimate the mixing matrix H and the sources s(k) []. Once the adequate approach is defined, its algorithms are applied to our set of data. The algorithms effectiveness is evaluated through the computation of the performance index of separability (PI) which is given by the following equation:
4 396 Abdelhamid Mekaoui et al. PI = n( n ) n n g n g ik ki + = max j g ij k max j g ji i= k = ( eq.3) where g ij is the (i,j) element of the global system matrix G = WH and max i (g ij ) represents the maximum value among the elements in the i th row vector of G. Also, the term max j (g ji ) corresponds to the maximum value among the elements in the j th column vector of G [], [2], [7]. When the perfect separation is achieved, the PI is equal to zero. In practice, a PI value around -2 indicates quite a good performance [], [2], [7]. 3. Results and discussion As mentioned above, we analyzed the autocorrelation and the probability density functions of each recorded observation. The results reveal that, in both experiments, the observations have different correlation function shapes. This means that the power spectra of the original sources are not identical. In addition, the probability density of some observations looks like the Gaussian one. The figure 2 hereafter shows an example of the obtained results. In this case, the independent component analysis (ICA) approach, based on higher order statistics, is the most suitable one to perform the BSS task in our application. Thus, the main hypothesis of this method is that the original sources are assumed to be statistically independent with different temporal structures. []. Based on these results, we performed various tests in order to choose the appropriate algorithm that permits the best separation of the original sources. For this reason, we used the toolbox ICALAB-SP (version 3.) [], [8], which contains 3 BSS algorithms. In this tool, they are 6 different implemented algorithms matching the selected approach. However, the tests showed that only 5 algorithms are stable: POWERICA: Power iteration for ICA [9], []; MULCOMBI: Multi-Combination of weight-adjusted Second Order Blind Identification (WASOBI) [] and Efficient Variant of Fast ICA (EFICA) [2]; NG-FICA: Natural Gradient Flexible ICA [3]; SYM-WHITE: Symmetric Pre-Whitening algorithm [4]; ThinICA: Thin algorithm for Independent Component Analysis [5]; The computed PI values permits us to classify the above algorithms. As the table shows, the symmetric pre-whitening (SYM-WHITE) and the MULCOMBI are the most effective BSS methods to analyze our recorded signals, especially in the presence of γ-ray emitter. We performed an additional test based on the evaluation of the mean value of the signal to noise ratio (SNR) in order to confirm the algorithm choice. As a result, the SYM-WHITE algorithm has an SNR=-9,3534 db which is higher than the one of the MULCOMBI (SNR= -9,3532 db). Consequently, the SYM-WHITE algorithm is the most appropriate one to solve

It computes a symmetric pre-whitening matrix W on the basis of the covariance matrix R xx, such as: W = inv( Rxx ) ( eq.4) The power of this algorithm is its ability to separate sources under weak
6 398 Abdelhamid Mekaoui et al. conditions and when a mixing matrix H is symmetric and the covariance matrix of the original sources is supposed to be R ss =I m [8], [4]. 4. Conclusion In this paper, we consider the HPGe preamplifiers output signals, of a γ-ray spectrometry chain, as mixtures of m-unknown independent components. In order to extract the mixing matrix and the original sources of the recorded signal, we applied different blind source separation methods to 28 recorded signals corresponding to two experiments, both in the presence and the absence of a γ-ray emitter. The computation of the autocorrelation and the probability density functions of the signals showed that the ICA techniques based on higher order statistics are the most suitable BSS approach to analyze our set of data. The obtained results showed, while the evaluation of the performance index and the signal to noise ratio, that the SYM-WHITE algorithm is the most effective one among all stable ICA algorithms of this approach. In a forthcoming works, the SYM-WHITE algorithm will be applied to extract the mixing matrix and the original sources from the recorded spectrometric data. The isolated independent sources will be then characterized using spectral and statistical methods. References [] A. Cichocki, S. Amari.
