| Proposed Analysis: | we propose a Bayesian spatial blind source separation (BSP-BSS) approach for neuroimaging data analysis. We assume the expectation of the observed images as a linear mixture of multiple sparse and piece-wise smooth latent source signals, for which we construct a new class of Bayesian nonparametric prior models by thresholding Gaussian processes. We assign the vMF priors to mixing coefficients in the model. Under some regularity conditions, we show that the proposed method has several desirable theoretical properties including the large support for the priors, the consistency of joint posterior distribution of the latent source intensity functions and the mixing coefficients, and the selection consistency on the number of latent sources. |
