Signal Recovery in Perturbed Fourier Compressed Sensing
In many applications in compressed sensing, the measurement matrix is a
Fourier matrix, i.e., it measures the Fourier transform of the underlying
signal at some specified `base' frequencies , where is the
number of measurements. However due to system calibration errors, the system
may measure the Fourier transform at frequencies
that are different from the base frequencies and where
are unknown. Ignoring perturbations of this nature can lead to major errors in
signal recovery. In this paper, we present a simple but effective alternating
minimization algorithm to recover the perturbations in the frequencies \emph{in
situ} with the signal, which we assume is sparse or compressible in some known
basis. In many cases, the perturbations can be expressed
in terms of a small number of unique parameters . We demonstrate that
in such cases, the method leads to excellent quality results that are several
times better than baseline algorithms (which are based on existing off-grid
methods in the recent literature on direction of arrival (DOA) estimation,
modified to suit the computational problem in this paper). Our results are also
robust to noise in the measurement values. We also provide theoretical results
for (1) the convergence of our algorithm, and (2) the uniqueness of its
solution under some restrictions.Comment: New theortical results about uniqueness and convergence now included.

Constrained Overcomplete Analysis Operator Learning for Cosparse Signal Modelling
We consider the problem of learning a low-dimensional signal model from a
collection of training samples. The mainstream approach would be to learn an
overcomplete dictionary to provide good approximations of the training samples
using sparse synthesis coefficients. This famous sparse model has a less well
known counterpart, in analysis form, called the cosparse analysis model. In
this new model, signals are characterised by their parsimony in a transformed
domain using an overcomplete (linear) analysis operator. We propose to learn an
analysis operator from a training corpus using a constrained optimisation
framework based on L1 optimisation. The reason for introducing a constraint in
the optimisation framework is to exclude trivial solutions. Although there is
no final answer here for which constraint is the most relevant constraint, we
investigate some conventional constraints in the model adaptation field and use
the uniformly normalised tight frame (UNTF) for this purpose. We then derive a
practical learning algorithm, based on projected subgradients and
Douglas-Rachford splitting technique, and demonstrate its ability to robustly
recover a ground truth analysis operator, when provided with a clean training
set, of sufficient size. We also find an analysis operator for images, using
some noisy cosparse signals, which is indeed a more realistic experiment. As
the derived optimisation problem is not a convex program, we often find a local
minimum using such variational methods. Some local optimality conditions are
derived for two different settings, providing preliminary theoretical support
for the well-posedness of the learning problem under appropriate conditions.Comment: 29 pages, 13 figures, accepted to be published in TS
