The 2010 Signal Separation Evaluation Campaign (SiSEC2010): Biomedical Source Separation

We present an overview of the biomedical part of the 2010 community-based Signal Separation Evaluation Campaign (SiSEC2010), coordinated by the authors. In addition to the audio tasks which have been evaluated in the previous SiSEC, SiSEC2010 considered several biomedical tasks. Here, three biomedical datasets from molecular biology (gene expression profiles) and neuroscience (EEG) were contributed. This paper describes the biomedical datasets, tasks and evaluation criteria. This paper also reports the results of the biomedical part of SiSEC2010 achieved by participants.
