We study the problem of interpolating a noisy Fourier-sparse signal in the time duration $[0, T]$ from noisy samples in the same range, where the ground truth signal can be any $k$-Fourier-sparse signal with band-limit $[-F, F]$. Our main…

We extend the recent sparse Fourier transform algorithm of (Lawlor, Christlieb, and Wang, 2013) to the noisy setting, in which a signal of bandwidth N is given as a superposition of k << N frequencies and additive noise. We present two such…

We study the problem of recovering the common $k$-sized support of a set of $n$ samples of dimension $d$, using $m$ noisy linear measurements per sample. Most prior work has focused on the case when $m$ exceeds $k$, in which case $n$ of the…

In this work we consider the problem of recovering $n$ discrete random variables $x_i\in \{0,\ldots,k-1\}, 1 \leq i \leq n$ (where $k$ is constant) with the smallest possible number of queries to a noisy oracle that returns for a given…
