Non-negative source separation: range of admissible solutions and conditions for the uniqueness of the solution

A main issue in source separation is to deal with the indeterminacies. Well known are the ordering and scale ambiguities, but other types of indeterminacies may also occur. In this paper we address these indeterminacies in the case of non-negative sources and non-negative mixing coefficients. On the one hand, we fully develop the case of two sources. On the other hand, in the general case we formulate necessary conditions for the uniqueness of the solution (up to ordering and scale ambiguities).
