Consider the $n$-dimensional vector $y=X\be+\e$, where $\be \in \R^p$ has only $k$ nonzero entries and $\e \in \R^n$ is a Gaussian noise. This can be viewed as a linear system with sparsity constraints, corrupted by noise. We find a…

We consider an uncertain linear inverse problem as follows. Given observation $\omega=Ax_*+\zeta$ where $A\in {\bf R}^{m\times p}$ and $\zeta\in {\bf R}^{m}$ is observation noise, we want to recover unknown signal $x_*$, known to belong to…

We consider the regression model with observation error in the design: y=X\theta* + e, Z=X+N. Here the random vector y in R^n and the random n*p matrix Z are observed, the n*p matrix X is unknown, N is an n*p random noise matrix, e in R^n…
