Abstract(in English) The slow feature analysis (SFA) is a data analysis method that extracts slowly varying features from time series data. In this study, we propose an estimation algorithm of the probabilistic model of SFA that takes into account an effect of observation noise. Recently, a probabilistic model of the SFA has been proposed. However, the conventional algorithm using the probabilistic SFA model approximately evaluates the likelihood function by assuming observation noise to be zero. This means that observed data is assumed not to include noise in the conventional algorithm. Therefore it is not clear whether we can obtain a suitable result when we apply this conventional algorithm to real noisy data. In this study, we derived a likelihood function exactly in the probabilistic SFA model, that takes into account an effect of observation noise. From the graphical structure of the probabilistic SFA model, we showed that it is possible to derive the likelihood function exactly by using belief propagation. We applied our algorithm to artificial data, and showed that it could accurately estimate the slow feature from data including observation noise.
