In compressed sensing the goal is to recover a signal from as few as possible noisy, linear measurements. The general assumption is that the signal has only a few non-zero entries. The recovery can be performed by multiple different…

Signal estimation problems with smoothness and sparsity priors can be naturally modeled as quadratic optimization with $\ell_0$-"norm" constraints. Since such problems are non-convex and hard-to-solve, the standard approach is, instead, to…
