Let $t_1,\ldots,t_{n_l} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ and $p_1,\ldots,p_{n_s} \in \mathbb{R}^d$ and consider the bipartite location recovery problem: given a subset of pairwise direction observations $\{(t_i - p_j) / \|t_i - p_j\|_2\}_{i,j \in [n_l]…

$3$D structure recovery from a collection of $2$D images requires the estimation of the camera locations and orientations, i.e. the camera motion. For large, irregular collections of images, existing methods for the location estimation…
We establish exact recovery for the Least Unsquared Deviations (LUD) algorithm of Ozyesil and Singer. More precisely, we show that for sufficiently many cameras with given corrupted pairwise directions, where both camera locations and…
We propose a strategy for improving camera location estimation in structure from motion. Our setting assumes highly corrupted pairwise directions (i.e., normalized relative location vectors), so there is a clear room for improving current…
We study the inverse problem of estimating n locations $t_1, ..., t_n$ (up to global scale, translation and negation) in $R^d$ from noisy measurements of a subset of the (unsigned) pairwise lines that connect them, that is, from noisy…
We demonstrate a simple greedy algorithm that can reliably recover a d-dimensional vector v from incomplete and inaccurate measurements x. Here our measurement matrix is an N by d matrix with N much smaller than d. Our algorithm,…

We study the problem of corrupted sensing, a generalization of compressed sensing in which one aims to recover a signal from a collection of corrupted or unreliable measurements. While an arbitrary signal cannot be recovered in the face of…

Suppose a graph $G$ is stochastically created by uniformly sampling vertices along a line segment and connecting each pair of vertices with a probability that is a known decreasing function of their distance. We ask if it is possible to…

Matching pursuit, especially its orthogonal version (OMP) and variations, is a greedy algorithm widely used in signal processing, compressed sensing, and sparse modeling. Inspired by constrained sparse signal recovery, this paper proposes a…
We introduce a convex approach for mixed linear regression over $d$ features. This approach is a second-order cone program, based on L1 minimization, which assigns an estimate regression coefficient in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ for each data point.…
We study the robust recovery of a low-rank matrix from sparsely and grossly corrupted Gaussian measurements, with no prior knowledge on the intrinsic rank. We consider the robust matrix factorization approach. We employ a robust $\ell_1$…
Joint matching over a collection of objects aims at aggregating information from a large collection of similar instances (e.g. images, graphs, shapes) to improve maps between pairs of them. Given multiple matches computed between a few…
Suppose we wish to recover a signal x in C^n from m intensity measurements of the form |<x,z_i>|^2, i = 1, 2,..., m; that is, from data in which phase information is missing. We prove that if the vectors z_i are sampled independently and…
Unsupervised object detection using deep neural networks is typically a difficult problem with few to no guarantees about the learned representation. In this work we present the first unsupervised object detection method that is…
We study the problem of recovering the relative positions of objects moving along the real line based only on pairwise collision data. While interaction-based sensing systems arise naturally in a variety of practical settings, a systematic…
