Sparse Recovery Analysis of Preconditioned Frames via Convex Optimization
Orthogonal Matching Pursuit and Basis Pursuit are popular reconstruction
algorithms for recovery of sparse signals. The exact recovery property of both
the methods has a relation with the coherence of the underlying redundant
dictionary, i.e. a frame. A frame with low coherence provides better guarantees
for exact recovery. An equivalent formulation of the associated linear system
is obtained via premultiplication by a non-singular matrix. In view of bounds
that guarantee sparse recovery, it is very useful to generate the
preconditioner in such way that the preconditioned frame has low coherence as
compared to the original. In this paper, we discuss the impact of
preconditioning on sparse recovery. Further, we formulate a convex optimization
problem for designing the preconditioner that yields a frame with improved
coherence. In addition to reducing coherence, we focus on designing well
conditioned frames and numerically study the relationship between the condition
number of the preconditioner and the coherence of the new frame. Alongside
theoretical justifications, we demonstrate through simulations the efficacy of
the preconditioner in reducing coherence as well as recovering sparse signals.Comment: 9 pages, 5 Figure
Compressed Sensing with Coherent and Redundant Dictionaries
This article presents novel results concerning the recovery of signals from
undersampled data in the common situation where such signals are not sparse in
an orthonormal basis or incoherent dictionary, but in a truly redundant
dictionary. This work thus bridges a gap in the literature and shows not only
that compressed sensing is viable in this context, but also that accurate
recovery is possible via an L1-analysis optimization problem. We introduce a
condition on the measurement/sensing matrix, which is a natural generalization
of the now well-known restricted isometry property, and which guarantees
accurate recovery of signals that are nearly sparse in (possibly) highly
overcomplete and coherent dictionaries. This condition imposes no incoherence
restriction on the dictionary and our results may be the first of this kind. We
discuss practical examples and the implications of our results on those
applications, and complement our study by demonstrating the potential of
L1-analysis for such problems
Algorithms for the Construction of Incoherent Frames Under Various Design Constraints
Unit norm finite frames are generalizations of orthonormal bases with many
applications in signal processing. An important property of a frame is its
coherence, a measure of how close any two vectors of the frame are to each
other. Low coherence frames are useful in compressed sensing applications. When
used as measurement matrices, they successfully recover highly sparse solutions
to linear inverse problems. This paper describes algorithms for the design of
various low coherence frame types: real, complex, unital (constant magnitude)
complex, sparse real and complex, nonnegative real and complex, and harmonic
(selection of rows from Fourier matrices). The proposed methods are based on
solving a sequence of convex optimization problems that update each vector of
the frame. This update reduces the coherence with the other frame vectors,
while other constraints on its entries are also imposed. Numerical experiments
show the effectiveness of the methods compared to the Welch bound, as well as
other competing algorithms, in compressed sensing applications
Coherence Optimization and Best Complex Antipodal Spherical Codes
Vector sets with optimal coherence according to the Welch bound cannot exist
for all pairs of dimension and cardinality. If such an optimal vector set
exists, it is an equiangular tight frame and represents the solution to a
Grassmannian line packing problem. Best Complex Antipodal Spherical Codes
(BCASCs) are the best vector sets with respect to the coherence. By extending
methods used to find best spherical codes in the real-valued Euclidean space,
the proposed approach aims to find BCASCs, and thereby, a complex-valued vector
set with minimal coherence. There are many applications demanding vector sets
with low coherence. Examples are not limited to several techniques in wireless
communication or to the field of compressed sensing. Within this contribution,
existing analytical and numerical approaches for coherence optimization of
complex-valued vector spaces are summarized and compared to the proposed
approach. The numerically obtained coherence values improve previously reported
results. The drawback of increased computational effort is addressed and a
faster approximation is proposed which may be an alternative for time critical
cases
