We consider the problem of robust compressed sensing whose objective is to recover a high-dimensional sparse signal from compressed measurements corrupted by outliers. A new sparse Bayesian learning method is developed for robust compressed sensing. The basic idea of the proposed method is to identify and remove the outliers from sparse signal recovery. To automatically identify the outliers, we employ a set of binary indicator hyperparameters to indicate which observations are outliers. These indicator hyperparameters are treated as random variables and assigned a beta process prior such that their values are confined to be binary. In addition, a Gaussian-inverse Gamma prior is imposed on the sparse signal to promote sparsity. Based on this hierarchical prior model, we develop a variational Bayesian method to estimate the indicator hyperparameters as well as the sparse signal. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves a substantial performance improvement over existing robust compressed sensing techniques.

Deep generative models have emerged as a powerful class of priors for signals in various inverse problems such as compressed sensing, phase retrieval and super-resolution. Here, we assume an unknown signal to lie in the range of some pre-trained generative model. A popular approach for signal recovery is via gradient descent in the low-dimensional latent space. While gradient descent has achieved good empirical performance, its theoretical behavior is not well understood. In this paper, we introduce the use of stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD) for compressed sensing with a generativ…
Compressed sensing in MRI enables high subsampling factors while maintaining diagnostic image quality. This technique enables shortened scan durations and/or improved image resolution. Further, compressed sensing can increase the diagnostic information and value from each scan performed. Overall, compressed sensing has significant clinical impact in improving the diagnostic quality and patient experience for imaging exams. However, a number of challenges exist when moving compressed sensing from research to the clinic. These challenges include hand-crafted image priors, sensitive tuning parame…
Compressed sensing (CS) is a sampling theory that allows reconstruction of sparse (or compressible) signals from an incomplete number of measurements, using of a sensing mechanism implemented by an appropriate projection matrix. The CS theory is based on random Gaussian projection matrices, which satisfy recovery guarantees with high probability; however, sparse ternary {0, -1, +1} projections are more suitable for hardware implementation. In this paper, we present a deep learning approach to obtain very sparse ternary projections for compressed sensing. Our deep learning architecture jointly …

This letter proposes a sparse diffusion steepest-descent algorithm for one bit compressed sensing in wireless sensor networks. The approach exploits the diffusion strategy from distributed learning in the one bit compressed sensing framework. To estimate a common sparse vector cooperatively from only the sign of measurements, steepest-descent is used to minimize the suitable global and local convex cost functions. A diffusion strategy is suggested for distributive learning of the sparse vector. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed distributed algorithm compared to the stat…
We adopt data structure in the form of cover trees and iteratively apply approximate nearest neighbour (ANN) searches for fast compressed sensing reconstruction of signals living on discrete smooth manifolds. Levering on the recent stability results for the inexact Iterative Projected Gradient (IPG) algorithm and by using the cover tree's ANN searches, we decrease the projection cost of the IPG algorithm to be logarithmically growing with data population for low dimensional smooth manifolds. We apply our results to quantitative MRI compressed sensing and in particular within the Magnetic Reson…
This paper proposes a simple adaptive sensing and group testing algorithm for sparse signal recovery. The algorithm, termed Compressive Adaptive Sense and Search (CASS), is shown to be near-optimal in that it succeeds at the lowest possible signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) levels, improving on previous work in adaptive compressed sensing. Like traditional compressed sensing based on random non-adaptive design matrices, the CASS algorithm requires only k log n measurements to recover a k-sparse signal of dimension n. However, CASS succeeds at SNR levels that are a factor log n less than required by …
This letter proposes a low-computational Bayesian algorithm for noisy sparse recovery in the context of one bit compressed sensing with sensing matrix perturbation. The proposed algorithm which is called BHT-MLE comprises a sparse support detector and an amplitude estimator. The support detector utilizes Bayesian hypothesis test, while the amplitude estimator uses an ML estimator which is obtained by solving a convex optimization problem. Simulation results show that BHT-MLE algorithm offers more reconstruction accuracy than that of an ML estimator (MLE) at a low computational cost.
As a lossy compression framework, compressed sensing has drawn much attention in wireless telemonitoring of biosignals due to its ability to reduce energy consumption and make possible the design of low-power devices. However, the non-sparseness of biosignals presents a major challenge to compressed sensing. This study proposes and evaluates a spatio-temporal sparse Bayesian learning algorithm, which has the desired ability to recover such non-sparse biosignals. It exploits both temporal correlation in each individual biosignal and inter-channel correlation among biosignals from different chan…
This letter proposes a dictionary learning algorithm for blind one bit compressed sensing. In the blind one bit compressed sensing framework, the original signal to be reconstructed from one bit linear random measurements is sparse in an unknown domain. In this context, the multiplication of measurement matrix $\Ab$ and sparse domain matrix $Φ$, \ie $\Db=\AbΦ$, should be learned. Hence, we use dictionary learning to train this matrix. Towards that end, an appropriate continuous convex cost function is suggested for one bit compressed sensing and a simple steepest-descent method is exploited to…

We give a new, very general, formulation of the compressed sensing problem in terms of coordinate projections of an analytic variety, and derive sufficient sampling rates for signal reconstruction. Our bounds are linear in the coherence of the signal space, a geometric parameter independent of the specific signal and measurement, and logarithmic in the ambient dimension where the signal is presented. We exemplify our approach by deriving sufficient sampling densities for low-rank matrix completion and distance matrix completion which are independent of the true matrix.
Goal: This paper deals with the problems that some EEG signals have no good sparse representation and single channel processing is not computationally efficient in compressed sensing of multi-channel EEG signals. Methods: An optimization model with L0 norm and Schatten-0 norm is proposed to enforce cosparsity and low rank structures in the reconstructed multi-channel EEG signals. Both convex relaxation and global consensus optimization with alternating direction method of multipliers are used to compute the optimization model. Results: The performance of multi-channel EEG signal reconstruction…
We improve existing results in the field of compressed sensing and matrix completion when sampled data may be grossly corrupted. We introduce three new theorems. 1) In compressed sensing, we show that if the m \times n sensing matrix has independent Gaussian entries, then one can recover a sparse signal x exactly by tractable \ell1 minimimization even if a positive fraction of the measurements are arbitrarily corrupted, provided the number of nonzero entries in x is O(m/(log(n/m) + 1)). 2) In the very general sensing model introduced in "A probabilistic and RIPless theory of compressed sensing…
We examine the use of a structured thresholding algorithm for sparse underwater channel estimation using compressed sensing. This method shows some improvements over standard algorithms for sparse channel estimation such as matching pursuit, iterative detection and least squares.
We present reconstruction algorithms for smooth signals with block sparsity from their compressed measurements. We tackle the issue of varying group size via group-sparse least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) as well as via latent group LASSO regularizations. We achieve smoothness in the signal via fusion. We develop low-complexity solvers for our proposed formulations through the alternating direction method of multipliers.
Compressed sensing (sparse signal recovery) has been a popular and important research topic in recent years. By observing that natural signals are often nonnegative, we propose a new framework for nonnegative signal recovery using Compressed Counting (CC). CC is a technique built on maximally-skewed p-stable random projections originally developed for data stream computations. Our recovery procedure is computationally very efficient in that it requires only one linear scan of the coordinates. Our analysis demonstrates that, when 0<p<=0.5, it suffices to use M= O(C/eps^p log N) measurements so …
The literature on compressed sensing has focused almost entirely on settings where the signal is noiseless and the measurements are contaminated by noise. In practice, however, the signal itself is often subject to random noise prior to measurement. We briefly study this setting and show that, for the vast majority of measurement schemes employed in compressed sensing, the two models are equivalent with the important difference that the signal-to-noise ratio is divided by a factor proportional to p/n, where p is the dimension of the signal and n is the number of observations. Since p/n is ofte…
Growing set of optimization and regression techniques, based upon sparse representations of signals, to build models from data sets has received widespread attention recently with the advent of compressed sensing. This paper deals with the parameterization of the Lorenz-96 model with two time-scales that mimics mid-latitude atmospheric dynamics with microscopic convective processes. Compressed sensing is used to build models (vector fields) to emulate the behavior of the fine-scale process, so that explicit simulations become an online benchmark for parameterization. We apply compressed sensin…
Compressed sensing deals with efficient recovery of analog signals from linear encodings. This paper presents a statistical study of compressed sensing by modeling the input signal as an i.i.d. process with known distribution. Three classes of encoders are considered, namely optimal nonlinear, optimal linear and random linear encoders. Focusing on optimal decoders, we investigate the fundamental tradeoff between measurement rate and reconstruction fidelity gauged by error probability and noise sensitivity in the absence and presence of measurement noise, respectively. The optimal phase transit…
Compressed sensing is a theory which guarantees the exact recovery of sparse signals from a small number of linear projections. The sampling schemes suggested by current compressed sensing theories are often of little practical relevance since they cannot be implemented on real acquisition systems. In this paper, we study a new random sampling approach that consists in projecting the signal over blocks of sensing vectors. A typical example is the case of blocks made of horizontal lines in the 2D Fourier plane. We provide theoretical results on the number of blocks that are required for exact s…
This paper is about iteratively reweighted basis-pursuit algorithms for compressed sensing and matrix completion problems. In a first part, we give a theoretical explanation of the fact that reweighted basis pursuit can improve a lot upon basis pursuit for exact recovery in compressed sensing. We exhibit a condition that links the accuracy of the weights to the RIP and incoherency constants, which ensures exact recovery. In a second part, we introduce a new algorithm for matrix completion, based on the idea of iterative reweighting. Since a weighted nuclear "norm" is typically non-convex, it c…
We consider a linear stochastic bandit problem where the dimension $K$ of the unknown parameter $θ$ is larger than the sampling budget $n$. In such cases, it is in general impossible to derive sub-linear regret bounds since usual linear bandit algorithms have a regret in $O(K\sqrt{n})$. In this paper we assume that $θ$ is $S-$sparse, i.e. has at most $S-$non-zero components, and that the space of arms is the unit ball for the $||.||_2$ norm. We combine ideas from Compressed Sensing and Bandit Theory and derive algorithms with regret bounds in $O(S\sqrt{n})$.
Testing covariance structure is of significant interest in many areas of statistical analysis and construction of compressed sensing matrices is an important problem in signal processing. Motivated by these applications, we study in this paper the limiting laws of the coherence of an $n\times p$ random matrix in the high-dimensional setting where $p$ can be much larger than $n$. Both the law of large numbers and the limiting distribution are derived. We then consider testing the bandedness of the covariance matrix of a high dimensional Gaussian distribution which includes testing for independe…
This paper investigates the problem of recovering the support of structured signals via adaptive compressive sensing. We examine several classes of structured support sets, and characterize the fundamental limits of accurately recovering such sets through compressive measurements, while simultaneously providing adaptive support recovery protocols that perform near optimally for these classes. We show that by adaptively designing the sensing matrix we can attain significant performance gains over non-adaptive protocols. These gains arise from the fact that adaptive sensing can: (i) better mitig…
