In this paper, we study the minimax rates and provide an implementable convex algorithm for Poisson inverse problems under weak sparsity and physical constraints. In particular we assume the model $y_i \sim \mbox{Poisson}(Ta_i^{\top}f^*)$…
This paper investigates the effect of the design matrix on the ability (or inability) to estimate a sparse parameter in linear regression. More specifically, we characterize the optimal rate of estimation when the smallest singular value of…
High-dimensional data often lie in low-dimensional subspaces corresponding to different classes they belong to. Finding sparse representations of data points in a dictionary built using the collection of data helps to uncover…
We first propose a novel criterion that guarantees that an $s$-sparse signal is the local minimizer of the $\ell_1/\ell_2$ objective; our criterion is interpretable and useful in practice. We also give the first uniform recovery condition…
Reconstruction of fine-scale information from sparse data is relevant to many practical fluid dynamic applications where the sensing is typically sparse. Fluid flows in an ideal sense are manifestations of nonlinear multiscale PDE dynamical…
We propose novel necessary and sufficient conditions for a sensing matrix to be "$s$-good" - to allow for exact $\ell_1$-recovery of sparse signals with $s$ nonzero entries when no measurement noise is present. Then we express the error…
Many scientific and economic problems involve the analysis of high-dimensional time series datasets. However, theoretical studies in high-dimensional statistics to date rely primarily on the assumption of independent and identically…
We consider the problem of recovering a partially sparse solution of an underdetermined system of linear equations by minimizing the $\ell_1$-norm of the part of the solution vector which is known to be sparse. Such a problem is closely…
In this paper we show that if the restricted isometry constant $\delta_k$ of the compressed sensing matrix satisfies \[ \delta_k < 0.307, \] then $k$-sparse signals are guaranteed to be recovered exactly via $\ell_1$ minimization when no…
It is now well understood that (1) it is possible to reconstruct sparse signals exactly from what appear to be highly incomplete sets of linear measurements and (2) that this can be done by constrained L1 minimization. In this paper, we…
We study the robustness properties of $\ell_1$ norm minimization for the classical linear regression problem with a given design matrix and contamination restricted to the dependent variable. We perform a fine error analysis of the $\ell_1$…
The article concerns compressed sensing methods in the quaternion algebra. We prove that it is possible to uniquely reconstruct - by $\ell_1$-norm minimization - a sparse quaternion signal from a limited number of its linear measurements,…
This work considers recovery of signals that are sparse over two bases. For instance, a signal might be sparse in both time and frequency, or a matrix can be low rank and sparse simultaneously. To facilitate recovery, we consider minimizing…
We propose a prox-regular-type low-rank constrained nonconvex nonsmooth optimization model for Robust Low-Rank Matrix Recovery (RLRMR), i.e., estimate problem of low-rank matrix from an observed signal corrupted by outliers. For RLRMR, the…
This paper discusses the incorporation of local sparsity information, e.g. in each pixel of an image, via minimization of the $\ell^{1,\infty}$-norm. We discuss the basic properties of this norm when used as a regularization functional and…
A recent trend in compressed sensing is to consider non-convex optimization techniques for sparse recovery. The important case of $F$-minimization has become of particular interest, for which the exact reconstruction condition (ERC) in the…
In this paper, we introduce a sparse approximation property of order $s$ for a measurement matrix ${\bf A}$: $$\|{\bf x}_s\|_2\le D \|{\bf A}{\bf x}\|_2+ \beta \frac{\sigma_s({\bf x})}{\sqrt{s}} \quad {\rm for\ all} \ {\bf x},$$ where ${\bf…
This paper describes some new results on recursive l_1-minimizing by Kalman filtering. We consider the l_1-norm as an explicit constraint, formulated as a nonlinear observation of the state to be estimated. Interpretiing a sparse vector to…
We discuss a general notion of "sparsity structure" and associated recoveries of a sparse signal from its linear image of reduced dimension possibly corrupted with noise. Our approach allows for unified treatment of (a) the "usual sparsity"…
In this note, we address the theoretical properties of $\Delta_p$, a class of compressed sensing decoders that rely on $\ell^p$ minimization with 0<p<1 to recover estimates of sparse and compressible signals from incomplete and inaccurate…
