文章在分析影响价值链的企业家心智因素过程中引入了ICA理论，对应用ICA理论进行企业家心智因素的提取进行了可行性分析。在实证研究中通过基于ICA理论的FastICA算法从一组观测数据中分离出了影响价值链波动的主要因素，经分析,企业家的认知结构对价值链的影响比较显著。该方法用于筛选企业家心智因素是可行的，为ICA理论用于价值链管理和优化提供了理论参考。

This paper introduces the ICA theory in the process of analyzing the entrepreneur mental factors which affect the value chain, and analyzes the feasibility of applying ICA theory in the extraction of the entrepreneur mental factors. In the empirical study, the authors separate the main factors influencing value chain by the FastICA algorithm based on ICA theory, and find that entrepreneur’s cognitive structure more significantly influences on the value chain. It is feasible to sift entrepreneur mental factors. The research results of this paper also provide a theoretical reference for the application of the ICA theory in value chain management and optimization.
