Automatic Model Determination for Quaternion NMF
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a well-known method for Blind Source Separation (BSS). Recently, BSS for polarized signals in spectropolarimetric data, containing both polarization and spectral information, was introduced. This information was encoded in 4-dimensional Stokes vectors repres...

Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a well-known method for Blind Source Separation (BSS). Recently, BSS for polarized signals in spectropolarimetric data, containing both polarization and spectral information, was introduced. This information was encoded in 4-dimensional Stokes vectors represented by quaternion numbers. In the proposed Quaternion NMF (QNMF), the common challenge of determining the (usually) unknown number of quaternion signals remained unaddressed. Estimating the number of signals (aka model determination) is important, since an underestimation of this number results in poor source separation and omission of signals, while overestimation leads to extraction of noisy signals without physical meaning. Here, we introduce a method for determining the number of polarized signals in spectropolarimetric data, named QNMF<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$k$ </tex-math></inline-formula>.
