Given a convex set and an interior point close to the boundary, we prove the existence of a supporting hyperplane whose distance to the point is controlled, in a dimensionally quantified way, by the thickness of the convex set in the…

The compressive sensing (CS) and 1-bit CS demonstrate superior efficiency in signal acquisition and resource conservation, while 1-bit CS achieves maximum resource efficiency through sign-only measurements. With the emergence of massive…

$3$D structure recovery from a collection of $2$D images requires the estimation of the camera locations and orientations, i.e. the camera motion. For large, irregular collections of images, existing methods for the location estimation…

Suppose S is a planar set. Two points a,b in S 'see each other' via S if [a,b] is included in S . F. Valentine proved in 1957 that if S is closed, and if for every three points of S, at least two see each other via S, then S is a union of…

We estimate convex polytopes and general convex sets in $\mathbb R^d,d\geq 2$ in the regression framework. We measure the risk of our estimators using a $L^1$-type loss function and prove upper bounds on these risks. We show that, in the…

Rotation averaging (RA) is a fundamental problem in robotics and computer vision. In RA, the goal is to estimate a set of $N$ unknown orientations $R_{1}, ..., R_{N} \in SO(3)$, given noisy measurements $R_{ij} \sim R^{-1}_{i} R_{j}$ of a…

Let $G$ be a finite, simple, and undirected graph and let $S$ be a set of vertices of $G$. In the geodetic convexity, a set of vertices $S$ of a graph $G$ is convex if all vertices belonging to any shortest path between two vertices of $S$…

We address the collective matrix completion problem of jointly recovering a collection of matrices with shared structure from partial (and potentially noisy) observations. To ensure well--posedness of the problem, we impose a joint low rank…

Let $P$ be an orthogonal polygon. Consider a sliding camera that travels back and forth along an orthogonal line segment $s\in P$ as its \emph{trajectory}. The camera can see a point $p\in P$ if there exists a point $q\in s$ such that $pq$…

A balanced V-shape is a polygonal region in the plane contained in the union of two crossing equal-width strips. It is delimited by two pairs of parallel rays that emanate from two points x, y, are contained in the strip boundaries, and are…

Given a set of vertices $S=\{v_1,v_2,...,v_k\}$ of a connected graph $G$, the metric representation of a vertex $v$ of $G$ with respect to $S$ is the vector $r(v|S)=(d(v,v_1),d(v,v_2),...,d(v,v_k))$, where $d(v,v_i)$, $i\in \{1,...,k\}$…

Most existing distance metric learning methods assume perfect side information that is usually given in pairwise or triplet constraints. Instead, in many real-world applications, the constraints are derived from side information, such as…

We present a new object representation, called Dense RepPoints, that utilizes a large set of points to describe an object at multiple levels, including both box level and pixel level. Techniques are proposed to efficiently process these…

Compressive sensing (CS) allows for acquisition of sparse signals at sampling rates significantly lower than the Nyquist rate required for bandlimited signals. Recovery guarantees for CS are generally derived based on the assumption that…

The planar rigidity problem asks, given a set of m pairwise distances among a set P of n unknown points, whether it is possible to reconstruct P, up to a finite set of possibilities (modulo rigid motions of the plane). The celebrated…

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can measure the phase with antenna and microwave, which cannot be directly extended to visible light imaging due to phase lost. In this letter, we reported an active remote sensing with visible light via…

Let psi: R^n --> R^k be a map defined by k positive definite quadratic forms on R^n. We prove that the relative entropy (Kullback-Leibler) distance from the convex hull of the image of psi to the image of psi is bounded above by an absolute…

The convergence rate is analyzed for the SpaSRA algorithm (Sparse Reconstruction by Separable Approximation) for minimizing a sum $f (\m{x}) + \psi (\m{x})$ where $f$ is smooth and $\psi$ is convex, but possibly nonsmooth. It is shown that…

The goal of (stable) sparse recovery is to recover a $k$-sparse approximation $x*$ of a vector $x$ from linear measurements of $x$. Specifically, the goal is to recover $x*$ such that ||x-x*||_p <= C min_{k-sparse x'} ||x-x'||_q for some…

For two planar convex bodies, $C$ and $D$, consider a packing $S$ of $n$ positive homothets of $C$ contained in $D$. We estimate the total perimeter of the bodies in $S$, denoted ${\rm per}(S)$, in terms of ${\rm per}(D)$ and $n$. When all…
