Recovery from linear measurements under sparse adversarial corruption is typically formulated as an exact-recovery problem: one seeks structural conditions on $A$ (e.g., the restricted isometry property) that guarantee unique recovery of…
It is well known that $\ell_1$ minimization can be used to recover sufficiently sparse unknown signals from compressed linear measurements. In fact, exact thresholds on the sparsity, as a function of the ratio between the system dimensions,…
A locally recoverable code (LRC code) is a code over a finite alphabet such that every symbol in the encoding is a function of a small number of other symbols that form a recovering set. Bounds on the rate and distance of such codes have…
Sparse recovery can recover sparse signals from a set of underdetermined linear measurements. Motivated by the need to monitor large-scale networks from a limited number of measurements, this paper addresses the problem of recovering sparse…

A problem of identification of piecewise-constant unknown parameters of a linear regression equation (LRE) is considered. Such parameters change their values over the interval of the regressor finite (rather than persistent) excitation. To…
We study list-recoverability of random linear codes over small fields, both from errors and from erasures. We consider codes of rate $\epsilon$-close to capacity, and aim to bound the dependence of the output list size $L$ on $\epsilon$,…
We investigate adaptive single-trial error/erasure decoding of binary codes whose decoder is able to correct e errors and t erasures if le+t<=d-1. Thereby, d is the minimum Hamming distance of the code and 1<l<=2 is the tradeoff parameter…

Solving inverse problems with iterative algorithms is popular, especially for large data. Due to time constraints, the number of possible iterations is usually limited, potentially affecting the achievable accuracy. Given an error one is…
Blind deconvolution is a ubiquitous problem of recovering two unknown signals from their convolution. Unfortunately, this is an ill-posed problem in general. This paper focuses on the {\em short and sparse} blind deconvolution problem,…
The estimation of a sparse vector in the linear model is a fundamental problem in signal processing, statistics, and compressive sensing. This paper establishes a lower bound on the mean-squared error, which holds regardless of the…
In a {\em locally recoverable} or {\em repairable} code, any symbol of a codeword can be recovered by reading only a small (constant) number of other symbols. The notion of local recoverability is important in the area of distributed…

A locally correctable code (LCC) is an error correcting code that allows correction of any arbitrary coordinate of a corrupted codeword by querying only a few coordinates. We show that any {\em zero-error} $2$-query locally correctable code…

Much of the existing literature in sparse recovery is concerned with the following question: given a sparsity pattern and a corresponding regularizer, derive conditions on the dictionary under which exact recovery is possible. In this…
