Uniformly valid confidence intervals post model selection in regression can be constructed based on Post-Selection Inference (PoSI) constants. PoSI constants are minimal for orthogonal design matrices, and can be upper bounded in function…

This paper deals with the problem of robust matrix completion -- retrieving a low-rank matrix and a sparse matrix from the compressed counterpart of their superposition. Though seemingly not an unresolved issue, we point out that the…

We prove a variant of a Johnson-Lindenstrauss lemma for matrices with circulant structure. This approach allows to minimise the randomness used, is easy to implement and provides good running times. The price to be paid is the higher…

An $n \times n$ matrix with $\pm 1$ entries which acts on $\mathbb{R}^n$ as a scaled isometry is called Hadamard. Such matrices exist in some, but not all dimensions. Combining number-theoretic and probabilistic tools we construct matrices…

Compressed sensing is the art of reconstructing a sparse vector from its inner products with respect to a small set of randomly chosen measurement vectors. It is usually assumed that the ensemble of measurement vectors is in isotropic…

Compressed Sensing (CS) is an emerging field that enables reconstruction of a sparse signal $x \in {\mathbb R} ^n$ that has only $k \ll n$ non-zero coefficients from a small number $m \ll n$ of linear projections. The projections are…

We obtain lower tail estimates for the smallest singular value of random matrices with independent but non-identically distributed entries. Specifically, we consider $n\times n$ matrices with complex entries of the form \[ M = A\circ X + B…

In this paper we formulate and prove a statistical version of the Candes-Tao restricted isometry property (SRIP for short) which holds in general for any incoherent dictionary which is a disjoint union of orthonormal bases. In addition, we…

We give a polynomial-time algorithm that finds a planted clique of size $k \ge \sqrt{n \log n}$ in the semirandom model, improving the state-of-the-art $\sqrt{n} (\log n)^2$ bound. This $\textit{semirandom planted clique problem}$ concerns…

Compressed sensing (CS) is a signal acquisition paradigm to simultaneously acquire and reduce dimension of signals that admit sparse representation. This is achieved by collecting linear, non-adaptive measurements of a signal, which can be…

Compressed Sensing aims to capture attributes of $k$-sparse signals using very few measurements. In the standard Compressed Sensing paradigm, the $\m\times \n$ measurement matrix $\A$ is required to act as a near isometry on the set of all…

We present a simple proof to a fact recently established in [5]: let $\xi$ be a symmetric random variable that has variance $1$, let $\Gamma=(\xi_{ij})$ be an $N \times n$ random matrix whose entries are independent copies of $\xi$, and set…

We prove lower bounds of order $n\log n$ for both the problem to multiply polynomials of degree $n$, and to divide polynomials with remainder, in the model of bounded coefficient arithmetic circuits over the complex numbers. These lower…

As an extension of orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) improving the recovery performance of sparse signals, generalized OMP (gOMP) has recently been studied in the literature. In this paper, we present a new analysis of the gOMP algorithm…

In nonadaptive group testing, the main research objective is to design an efficient algorithm to identify a set of up to $t$ positive elements among $n$ samples with as few tests as possible. Disjunct matrices and separable matrices are two…

We present Selective Non-Gaussian Refinement (SNGR), a SLAM framework that augments iSAM2 with targeted nested sampling on windows where Gaussian approximations are likely to fail. We detect such regions using the condition number of joint…

We consider the problem of generating symmetric pseudo-random sign (+/-1) matrices based on the similarity of their spectra to Wigner's semicircular law. Using binary m-sequences (Golomb sequences) of lengths n=2^m-1, we give a simple…

We study a random walk on the subgroup of lower triangular matrices of SL$_2$, with i.i.d. increments. We prove that the process of the lower corner of the random walk satisfies a Rogers-Pitman criterion to be a Markov chain if and only if…

A matrix is given in ``shredded'' form if we are presented with the multiset of rows and the multiset of columns, but not told which row is which or which column is which. The matrix is reconstructible if it is uniquely determined by this…
