Abstract

A method for suppressing sensor noise in a spatially oversampled sensor array includes receiving spatially oversampled multi-channel sensor data from a region of interest and building a spatial model from the data for essential spatial degrees of freedom. The method further includes decomposing the data into the underlying spatial model to obtain associated amplitude components containing a mixture of original temporal waveforms of the data and, for each channel of the multi-channel sensor, estimating time-domain amplitude components using cross-validation. Next, for each channel, based on the estimated time-domain amplitude components, sensor noise and/or artifacts for that channel are identified. Finally, for each channel, the identified sensor noise and/or artifacts can be suppressed from the data.
