In dynamic MRI, sufficient time resolution can often only be obtained using imaging protocols which produce undersampled data for each image in the time series. This has led to the popularity of compressed sensing (CS) based image…

We study the problem of distributed mean estimation and optimization under communication constraints. We propose a correlated quantization protocol whose leading term in the error guarantee depends on the mean deviation of data points…
