Compressive Sensing Using Low Density Frames

We consider the compressive sensing of a sparse or compressible signal ${\bf x} \in {\mathbb R}^M$. We explicitly construct a class of measurement matrices, referred to as the low density frames, and develop decoding algorithms that produce an accurate estimate $\hat{\bf x}$ even in the presence of additive noise. Low density frames are sparse matrices and have small storage requirements. Our decoding algorithms for these frames have $O(M)$ complexity. Simulation results are provided, demonstrating that our approach significantly outperforms state-of-the-art recovery algorithms for numerous cases of interest. In particular, for Gaussian sparse signals and Gaussian noise, we are within 2 dB range of the theoretical lower bound in most cases.

Shannon Theoretic Limits on Noisy Compressive Sampling

In this paper, we study the number of measurements required to recover a sparse signal in ${\mathbb C}^M$ with $L$ non-zero coefficients from compressed samples in the presence of noise. For a number of different recovery criteria, we prove that $O(L)$ (an asymptotically linear multiple of $L$) measurements are necessary and sufficient if $L$ grows linearly as a function of $M$. This improves on the existing literature that is mostly focused on variants of a specific recovery algorithm based on convex programming, for which $O(L\log(M-L))$ measurements are required. We also show that $O(L\log(M-L))$ measurements are required in the sublinear regime ($L = o(M)$).

Performance Bounds on Sparse Representations Using Redundant Frames

We consider approximations of signals by the elements of a frame in a complex vector space of dimension $N$ and formulate both the noiseless and the noisy sparse representation problems. The noiseless representation problem is to find sparse representations of a signal $\mathbf{r}$ given that such representations exist. In this case, we explicitly construct a frame, referred to as the Vandermonde frame, for which the noiseless sparse representation problem can be solved uniquely using $O(N^2)$ operations, as long as the number of non-zero coefficients in the sparse representation of $\mathbf{r}$ is $εN$ for some $0 \le ε\le 0.5$, thus improving on a result of Candes and Tao \cite{Candes-Tao}. We also show that $ε\le 0.5$ cannot be relaxed without violating uniqueness. The noisy sparse representation problem is to find sparse representations of a signal $\mathbf{r}$ satisfying a distortion criterion. In this case, we establish a lower bound on the trade-off between the sparsity of the representation, the underlying distortion and the redundancy of any given frame.
