Hardware Based Projection onto The Parity Polytope and Probability Simplex
This paper is concerned with the adaptation to hardware of methods for
Euclidean norm projections onto the parity polytope and probability simplex. We
first refine recent efforts to develop efficient methods of projection onto the
parity polytope. Our resulting algorithm can be configured to have either
average computational complexity or worst case
complexity on a serial processor where
is the dimension of projection space. We show how to adapt our projection
routine to hardware. Our projection method uses a sub-routine that involves
another Euclidean projection; onto the probability simplex. We therefore
explain how to adapt to hardware a well know simplex projection algorithm. The
hardware implementations of both projection algorithms achieve area scalings of
at a delay of
. Finally, we present numerical results in
which we evaluate the fixed-point accuracy and resource scaling of these
algorithms when targeting a modern FPGA
Jump-sparse and sparse recovery using Potts functionals
We recover jump-sparse and sparse signals from blurred incomplete data
corrupted by (possibly non-Gaussian) noise using inverse Potts energy
functionals. We obtain analytical results (existence of minimizers, complexity)
on inverse Potts functionals and provide relations to sparsity problems. We
then propose a new optimization method for these functionals which is based on
dynamic programming and the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM).
A series of experiments shows that the proposed method yields very satisfactory
jump-sparse and sparse reconstructions, respectively. We highlight the
capability of the method by comparing it with classical and recent approaches
such as TV minimization (jump-sparse signals), orthogonal matching pursuit,
iterative hard thresholding, and iteratively reweighted minimization
(sparse signals)
