The puzzle continues...
I found some reference for computing "multicoherence," which should properly estimate the potential MISO subtraction potential in situations where the witness channels themselves have nontrivial coherence. Specifically, I followed the derivations in LIGO-P990002. The underlying math is related to principal component analysis (PCA) or gram-schmidt orthogonalization.
This produced the following results, wherein the Wiener subtraction is still below what the coherences predict.

I've attached the data and code that produced this plot. |
