## NSS.JD Method for Nonstationary Blind Source Separation

### Description

The NSS.JD method for nonstationary blind source separation. The method first whitens the complete data and then divides it into K time intervals. Then `frjd` is used to jointly diagonalize the covariance matrices computed for the individual time intervals to find the sources.

### Usage

    NSS.JD(X, ...)

    ## Default S3 method:
    NSS.JD(X,  K=12, Tau=0, n.cuts=NULL, eps = 1e-06, maxiter = 100, ...)
    ## S3 method for class 'ts'
    NSS.JD(X, ...)

### Arguments

`X` | a numeric matrix or a multivariate time series object of class `ts`. Missing values are not allowed.
`K` | number of intervals to be used.
`Tau` | By default 0 which means covariance are computed of each time interval, if Tau is an integer > 0 then rather autocovariance matrices at lag Tau are used for the joint diagonaliation.
`n.cuts` | if NULL, then the time series is divided into K equally long intervals. To specify intervals n.cuts should be given in the form c(1,n.cut.1,...,n.cut.k, nrow(X)) to specify where to split the time series.
`eps` | maximum number of iterations for `frjd`.
`maxiter` | convergence tolerance for `frjd`.
`...` | further arguments to be passed to or from methods.

### Details

The model assumes that the mean of the p-variate time series is constant but the variances change over time.

### Value

A list with class 'bss' containing the following components:

`W` | estimated unmixing matrix.
`k` | the lag used for the autocovariance matrix.
`n.cut` | specifying the intervals where data is split
`K` | the number of intervals used
`S` | estimated sources as time series objected standardized to have mean 0 and that the variance of the sources are 1.
