Query: Robustifying Independent Component Analysis by Adjusting for Group-Wise
  Stationary Noise   We introduce coroICA, confounding-robust independent component analysis, a
novel ICA algorithm which decomposes linearly mixed multivariate observations
into independent components that are corrupted (and rendered dependent) by
hidden group-wise stationary confounding. It extends the ordinary ICA model in
a theoretically sound and explicit way to incorporate group-wise (or
environment-wise) confounding. We show that our proposed general noise model
allows to perform ICA in settings where other noisy ICA procedures fail.
Additionally, it can be used for applications with grouped data by adjusting
for different stationary noise within each group. Our proposed noise model has
a natural relation to causality and we explain how it can be applied in the
context of causal inference. In addition to our theoretical framework, we
provide an efficient estimation procedure and prove identifiability of the
unmixing matrix under mild assumptions. Finally, we illustrate the performance
and robustness of our method on simulated data, provide audible and visual
examples, and demonstrate the applicability to real-world scenarios by
experiments on publicly available Antarctic ice core data as well as two EEG
data sets. We provide a scikit-learn compatible pip-installable Python package
coroICA as well as R and Matlab implementations accompanied by a documentation
