For ICA-based models with orthogonalization, it is ''very'' important for the data to be as close to white (identity covariance) as possible. This is a side-effect of using orthogonalization to decorrelate the features learned (more details in [[Independent Component Analysis | ICA]]). Hence, in this case, you will want to use an <tt>epsilon</tt> that is as small as possible (e.g., <math>epsilon = 1e-6</math>). | For ICA-based models with orthogonalization, it is ''very'' important for the data to be as close to white (identity covariance) as possible.
