In this paper we build provably near-optimal, in the minimax sense, estimates of linear forms and, more generally, "$N$-convex functionals" (the simplest example being the maximum of several fractional-linear functions) of unknown "signal"…

Sparse coding and dictionary learning are popular techniques for linear inverse problems such as denoising or inpainting. However in many cases, the measurement process is nonlinear, for example for clipped, quantized or 1-bit measurements.…
