In this work we study preprocessing for tractable problems when part of the input is unknown or uncertain. This comes up naturally if, e.g., the load of some machines or the congestion of some roads is not known far enough in advance, or if…

We discuss a strategy of sparse approximation that is based on the use of an overcomplete basis, and evaluate its performance when a random matrix is used as this basis. A small combination of basis vectors is chosen from a given…

The $\ell_1$ norm is the tight convex relaxation for the $\ell_0$ "norm" and has been successfully applied for recovering sparse signals. For problems with fewer samplings, one needs to enhance the sparsity by nonconvex penalties such as…
This short note proves the $\ell_2-\ell_1$ instance optimality of a $\ell_1/\ell_1$ solver, i.e a variant of \emph{basis pursuit denoising} with a $\ell_1$ fidelity constraint, when applied to the estimation of sparse (or compressible)…
We consider polynomials of a few linear forms and show how exploit this type of sparsity for optimization on some particular domains like the Euclidean sphere or a polytope. Moreover, a simple procedure allows to detect this form of…

We provide a sparse version of the bounded degree SOS hierarchy BSOS [7] for polynomial optimization problems. It permits to treat large scale problems which satisfy a structured sparsity pattern. When the sparsity pattern satisfies the…
In this study, we consider a variant of unlabelled sensing where the measurements are sparsely permuted, and additionally, a few correspondences are known. We present an estimator to solve for the unknown vector. We derive a theoretical…
We investigate conditions for the unique recoverability of sparse integer-valued signals from a small number of linear measurements. Both the objective of minimizing the number of nonzero components, the so-called $\ell_0$-norm, as well as…
$\ell_1$ minimization can be used to recover sufficiently sparse unknown signals from compressed linear measurements. In fact, exact thresholds on the sparsity (the size of the support set), under which with high probability a sparse signal…
