We give lower bounds for the problem of stable sparse recovery from /adaptive/ linear measurements. In this problem, one would like to estimate a vector $x \in \R^n$ from $m$ linear measurements $A_1x,..., A_mx$. One may choose each vector…
The problem central to sparse recovery and compressive sensing is that of stable sparse recovery: we want a distribution of matrices A in R^{m\times n} such that, for any x \in R^n and with probability at least 2/3 over A, there is an…
An approximate sparse recovery system in $\ell_1$ norm consists of parameters $k$, $\epsilon$, $N$, an $m$-by-$N$ measurement $\Phi$, and a recovery algorithm, $\mathcal{R}$. Given a vector, $\mathbf{x}$, the system approximates $x$ by…
