We consider the problem of testing for the presence (or detection) of an unknown sparse signal in additive white noise. Given a fixed measurement budget, much smaller than the dimension of the signal, we consider the general problem of…
The sparse regression problem, also known as best subset selection problem, can be cast as follows: Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, a point $y\in \mathbb{R}^d$, and an integer $2 \leq k \leq d$, find an affine combination…
