We describe an application of independent component analysis (ICA) to pattern recognition in order to evaluate the effectiveness of features extracted by ICA. We propose a recognition method suitable for independent components that consists of modules for each category. A module has two parts: feature extraction and classification. Features are independent components estimated by ICA and outputs of modules are candidates for categories. These candidates are combined and categories are decided with a majority rule. This recognition method is applied to two tasks: hand-written digits in the MNIST database and acoustic diagnosis for a compressor as real-world tasks. A FastICA algorithm is applied to extracting independent features in the proposed method. Through recognition experiments, we demonstrate that the ICA of each category extracts useful features for these tasks and the independent components are superior to the principal components in recognition accuracy.
