The main focus of this paper is a pair of new approximation algorithms for certain integer programs. First, for covering integer programs {min cx: Ax >= b, 0 <= x <= d} where A has at most k nonzeroes per row, we give a k-approximation…
Let $k,d,\lambda\geqslant1$ be integers with $d\geqslant\lambda $. Let $m(k,d,\lambda)$ be the maximum positive integer $n$ such that every set of $n$ points (not necessarily in general position) in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ has the property that…
This note considers the multidimensional unstructured sparse recovery problems. Examples include Fourier inversion and sparse deconvolution. The eigenmatrix is a data-driven construction with desired approximate eigenvalues and eigenvectors…
We describe a probabilistic, {\it sublinear} runtime, measurement-optimal system for model-based sparse recovery problems through dimensionality reducing, {\em dense} random matrices. Specifically, we obtain a linear sketch $u\in \R^M$ of a…
The problem central to sparse recovery and compressive sensing is that of stable sparse recovery: we want a distribution of matrices A in R^{m\times n} such that, for any x \in R^n and with probability at least 2/3 over A, there is an…
This paper addresses the problem of sparse recovery with graph constraints in the sense that we can take additive measurements over nodes only if they induce a connected subgraph. We provide explicit measurement constructions for several…
For a given $n$, what is the smallest number $k$ such that every sequence of length $n$ is determined by the multiset of all its $k$-subsequences? This is called the $k$-deck problem for sequence reconstruction, and has been generalized to…
The effectiveness of using model sparsity as a priori information when solving linear inverse problems is studied. We investigate the reconstruction quality of such a method in the non-idealized case and compute some typical recovery errors…
Much of the existing literature in sparse recovery is concerned with the following question: given a sparsity pattern and a corresponding regularizer, derive conditions on the dictionary under which exact recovery is possible. In this…
Let ${\cal{D}}$ = $\{d_1, d_2, d_3, ..., d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ (string) documents of total length $n$. The top-$k$ document retrieval problem is to index $\cal{D}$ such that when a pattern $P$ of length $p$, and a parameter $k$ come…
The sparse matrix compression problem asks for a one-dimensional representation of a binary $n \times \ell$ matrix, formed by an integer array of row indices and a shift function for each row, such that accessing a matrix entry is possible…
An approximate sparse recovery system in ell_1 norm formally consists of parameters N, k, epsilon an m-by-N measurement matrix, Phi, and a decoding algorithm, D. Given a vector, x, where x_k denotes the optimal k-term approximation to x,…
Matrix recovery is raised in many areas. In this paper, we build up a framework for almost everywhere matrix recovery which means to recover almost all the $P\in {\mathcal M}\subset {\mathbb H}^{p\times q}$ from $Tr(A_jP), j=1,\ldots,N$…
The high repair cost of (n,k) Maximum Distance Separable (MDS) erasure codes has recently motivated a new class of codes, called Regenerating Codes, that optimally trade off storage cost for repair bandwidth. In this paper, we address…
Why does the low dimensionality of representations, typically $d\approx 1000$, not prevent modern embedding-based retrieval models from scaling to billions, or even trillions, of data points? To answer this question, we study maximal-margin…
We study a weaker formulation of the nullspace property which guarantees recovery of sparse signals from linear measurements by l_1 minimization. We require this condition to hold only with high probability, given a distribution on the…
Sparse recovery is one of the most fundamental and well-studied inverse problems. Standard statistical formulations of the problem are provably solved by general convex programming techniques and more practical, fast (nearly-linear time)…
The sparse representation problem of recovering an N dimensional sparse vector x from M < N linear observations y = Dx given dictionary D is considered. The standard approach is to let the elements of the dictionary be independent and…
In this paper, we consider the extensively studied problem of computing a $k$-sparse approximation to the $d$-dimensional Fourier transform of a length $n$ signal. Our algorithm uses $O(k \log k \log n)$ samples, is dimension-free, operates…
An approximate sparse recovery system consists of parameters $k,N$, an $m$-by-$N$ measurement matrix, $\Phi$, and a decoding algorithm, $\mathcal{D}$. Given a vector, $x$, the system approximates $x$ by $\widehat x =\mathcal{D}(\Phi x)$,…
