A matrix $A \in \mathbb{C}^{q \times N}$ satisfies the restricted isometry property of order $k$ with constant $\varepsilon$ if it preserves the $\ell_2$ norm of all $k$-sparse vectors up to a factor of $1\pm \varepsilon$. We prove that a…

Randomized smoothing, using just a simple isotropic Gaussian distribution, has been shown to produce good robustness guarantees against $\ell_2$-norm bounded adversaries. In this work, we show that extending the smoothing technique to…
We give near-tight lower bounds for the sparsity required in several dimensionality reducing linear maps. First, consider the JL lemma which states that for any set of n vectors in R there is a matrix A in R^{m x d} with m = O(eps^{-2}log…
We study the level spacing distribution $P(S)$ of 2D real random matrices both symmetric as well as general, non-symmetric. In the general case we restrict ourselves to Gaussian distributed matrix elements, but different widths of the…

We study statistical restricted isometry, a property closely related to sparse signal recovery, of deterministic sensing matrices of size $m \times N$. A matrix is said to have a statistical restricted isometry property (StRIP) of order $k$…
Despite many applications, dimensionality reduction in the $\ell_1$-norm is much less understood than in the Euclidean norm. We give two new oblivious dimensionality reduction techniques for the $\ell_1$-norm which improve exponentially…
The study of the restricted isometry property (RIP) of corrupted random matrices is particularly important in the field of compressed sensing (CS) with corruptions. If a matrix still satisfies the RIP after that a certain portion of rows…
Are two sets of observations drawn from the same distribution? This problem is a two-sample test. Kernel methods lead to many appealing properties. Indeed state-of-the-art approaches use the $L^2$ distance between kernel-based distribution…
