A biosignal measuring apparatus for measuring, with a plurality of sensors, minute biosignals generated from bioelectric current sources in a region of a patient to be diagnosed. The apparatus includes a signal decomposer for decomposing detection signals provided by the plurality of sensors into a plurality of independent components, a noise component remover for determining noise components among the independent components based only on states of the independent components, and removing the noise components, a signal restorer for deriving restored detection signals from respective non-noise independent components, and a signal analyzer for determining an intracerebral activity corresponding to each independent component of each of the restored detection signals. After removing independent components determined to be noise components by the independent component analysis technique, a detection signal is separately restored for each information source from the remaining non-noise independent components. Thus, without requiring separate magnetic sensors exclusively for detecting noise, restored magnetism detection signals sufficiently stripped of noise components for the purpose of biosignal analysis are obtained with ease only from the signals acquired with biosignal measuring sensors.
