The goal of this paper is to characterize the best achievable performance for the problem of estimating an unknown parameter having a sparse representation. Specifically, we consider the setting in which a sparsely representable…

It is known that the estimating equations for quantile regression (QR) can be solved using an EM algorithm in which the M-step is computed via weighted least squares, with weights computed at the E-step as the expectation of independent…

Horizontal line arrays are often employed in underwater environments to estimate the direction of arrival (DOA) of a weak signal. Conventional beamforming (CB) is robust but has wide beamwidths and high-level sidelobes. High-resolution…

Sparse linear arrays, such as co-prime arrays and nested arrays, have the attractive capability of providing enhanced degrees of freedom. By exploiting the coarray structure, an augmented sample covariance matrix can be constructed and…

We study a new image sensor that is reminiscent of traditional photographic film. Each pixel in the sensor has a binary response, giving only a one-bit quantized measurement of the local light intensity. To analyze its performance, we…

This paper presents a distributed estimator for a deterministic parametric physical field sensed by a homogeneous sensor network and develops a new transformed expression for the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on the variance of distributed…

Mixed-resolution architectures, combining high-resolution (analog) data with coarsely quantized (e.g., 1-bit) data, are widely employed in emerging communication and radar systems to reduce hardware costs and power consumption. However, the…

Parameter estimation from multiple measurement vectors (MMVs) is a fundamental problem in many signal processing applications, e.g., spectral analysis and direction-of- arrival estimation. Recently, this problem has been address using prior…

Spectrum cartography (SC), also known as radio map estimation (RME), aims at crafting multi-domain (e.g., frequency and space) radio power propagation maps from limited sensor measurements. While early methods often lacked theoretical…

As an alternative to the traditional sampling theory, compressed sensing allows acquiring much smaller amount of data, still estimating the spectra of frequency-sparse signals accurately. However, compressed sensing usually requires random…

This letter investigates channel estimation for ultra-massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. We propose a joint low-rank and sparse Bayesian estimation (LRSBE) algorithm for spatial non-stationary ultra-massive…

This paper presents a novel efficient method for gridless line spectrum estimation problem with single snapshot, namely the gradient descent least squares (GDLS) method. Conventional single snapshot (a.k.a. single measure vector or SMV)…

An important receiver operation is to detect the presence specific preamble signals with unknown delays in the presence of scattering, Doppler effects and carrier offsets. This task, referred to as "link acquisition", is typically a…

Carrier frequency offset estimation (CFOE) is a critical stage in modern coherent optical communication systems. Although conventional all-digital techniques perform reliably in typical fiber-optic communication links, CFOE often becomes a…

In massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, the knowledge of the users' channel covariance matrix is crucial for minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation in the uplink as well as it plays an important role in…

Purpose: To develop a method for optimizing pulsed saturation transfer MR fingerprinting (ST MRF) acquisition. Methods: The Cram\'er-Rao bound (CRB) for variance assessment was employed on Bloch-McConnell-based simulated signals, followed…

Target parameter estimation performance is investigated for a radar employing a set of widely separated transmitting and receiving antenna arrays. Cases with multiple extended targets are considered under two signal model assumptions:…

In the Multiple Measurements Vector (MMV) model, measurement vectors are connected to unknown, jointly sparse signal vectors through a linear regression model employing a single known measurement matrix (or dictionary). Typically, the…

Estimation of a vector from quantized linear measurements is a common problem for which simple linear techniques are suboptimal -- sometimes greatly so. This paper develops generalized approximate message passing (GAMP) algorithms for…

Variational auto-encoders (VAE) are popular deep latent variable models which are trained by maximizing an Evidence Lower Bound (ELBO). To obtain tighter ELBO and hence better variational approximations, it has been proposed to use…
