We consider a model where a signal (discrete or continuous) is observed with an additive Gaussian noise process. The signal is issued from a linear combination of a finite but increasing number of translated features. The features are…

We consider a matrix-valued Gaussian sequence model, that is, we observe a sequence of high-dimensional $M \times N$ matrices of heterogeneous Gaussian random variables $x_{ij,k}$ for $i \in\{1,...,M\}$, $j \in \{1,...,N\}$ and $k \in…

Consider the minimum mean-square error (MMSE) of estimating an arbitrary random variable from its observation contaminated by Gaussian noise. The MMSE can be regarded as a function of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) as well as a functional…
