Tries are general purpose data structures for information retrieval. The most significant parameter of a trie is its height $H$ which equals the length of the longest common prefix of any two string in the set $A$ over which the trie is…
In this paper, we consider the sparse phase retrieval problem, recovering an $s$-sparse signal $\bm{x}^{\natural}\in\mathbb{R}^n$ from $m$ phaseless samples $y_i=|\langle\bm{x}^{\natural},\bm{a}_i\rangle|$ for $i=1,\ldots,m$. Existing…
Suppose we wish to recover a signal x in C^n from m intensity measurements of the form |<x,z_i>|^2, i = 1, 2,..., m; that is, from data in which phase information is missing. We prove that if the vectors z_i are sampled independently and…
