We study an approach to solving the phase retrieval problem as it arises in a phase-less imaging modality known as ptychography. In ptychography, small overlapping sections of an unknown sample (or signal, say $x_0\in \mathbb{C}^d$) are…
This paper is concerned with polynomial optimization problems. We show how to exploit term (or monomial) sparsity of the input polynomials to obtain a new converging hierarchy of semidefinite programming relaxations. The novelty (and…
We consider the \textit{phase retrieval} problem of recovering a sparse signal $\mathbf{x}$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ from intensity-only measurements in dimension $d \geq 2$. Phase retrieval can be equivalently formulated as the problem of…

In this work we study orbit recovery over $SO(3)$, where the goal is to recover a function on the sphere from noisy, randomly rotated copies of it. We assume that the function is a linear combination of low-degree spherical harmonics. This…

Stochastic optimization algorithms update models with cheap per-iteration costs sequentially, which makes them amenable for large-scale data analysis. Such algorithms have been widely studied for structured sparse models where the sparsity…
The aim of sparse phase retrieval is to recover a $k$-sparse signal $\mathbf{x}_0\in \mathbb{C}^{d}$ from quadratic measurements $|\langle \mathbf{a}_i,\mathbf{x}_0\rangle|^2$ where $\mathbf{a}_i\in \mathbb{C}^d, i=1,\ldots,m$. Noting…

We study how well one can recover sparse principal components of a data matrix using a sketch formed from a few of its elements. We show that for a wide class of optimization problems, if the sketch is close (in the spectral norm) to the…
