Deterministic Sparse Fourier Transform with an ell_infty Guarantee
In this paper we revisit the deterministic version of the Sparse Fourier
Transform problem, which asks to read only a few entries of and design a recovery algorithm such that the output of the
algorithm approximates , the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) of .
The randomized case has been well-understood, while the main work in the
deterministic case is that of Merhi et al.\@ (J Fourier Anal Appl 2018), which
obtains samples and a similar runtime
with the guarantee. We focus on the stronger
guarantee and the closely related problem of incoherent
matrices. We list our contributions as follows.
1. We find a deterministic collection of samples for the
recovery in time , and a deterministic
collection of samples for the sparse
recovery in time .
2. We give new deterministic constructions of incoherent matrices that are
row-sampled submatrices of the DFT matrix, via a derandomization of Bernstein's
inequality and bounds on exponential sums considered in analytic number theory.
Our first construction matches a previous randomized construction of Nelson,
Nguyen and Woodruff (RANDOM'12), where there was no constraint on the form of
the incoherent matrix.
Our algorithms are nearly sample-optimal, since a lower bound of is known, even for the case where the sensing matrix can be
arbitrarily designed. A similar lower bound of is
known for incoherent matrices.Comment: ICALP 2020--presentation improved according to reviewers' comment
