Distributed Signal Processing via Chebyshev Polynomial Approximation
Unions of graph multiplier operators are an important class of linear operators for processing signals defined on graphs. We present a novel method to efficiently distribute the application of these operators. The proposed method features approximations of the graph multipliers by shifted Chebyshev polynomials, whose recurrence relations make them readily amenable to distributed computation. We demonstrate how the proposed method can be applied to distributed processing tasks such as smoothing, denoising, inverse filtering, and semi-supervised classification, and show that the communication requirements of the method scale gracefully with the size of the network
Chebyshev Polynomial Approximation for Distributed Signal Processing
Unions of graph Fourier multipliers are an important class of linear
operators for processing signals defined on graphs. We present a novel method
to efficiently distribute the application of these operators to the
high-dimensional signals collected by sensor networks. The proposed method
features approximations of the graph Fourier multipliers by shifted Chebyshev
polynomials, whose recurrence relations make them readily amenable to
distributed computation. We demonstrate how the proposed method can be used in
a distributed denoising task, and show that the communication requirements of
the method scale gracefully with the size of the network.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures, to appear in the Proceedings of the IEEE

Accelerated filtering on graphs using Lanczos method
Signal-processing on graphs has developed into a very active field of
research during the last decade. In particular, the number of applications
using frames constructed from graphs, like wavelets on graphs, has
substantially increased. To attain scalability for large graphs, fast
graph-signal filtering techniques are needed. In this contribution, we propose
an accelerated algorithm based on the Lanczos method that adapts to the
Laplacian spectrum without explicitly computing it. The result is an accurate,
robust, scalable and efficient algorithm. Compared to existing methods based on
Chebyshev polynomials, our solution achieves higher accuracy without increasing
the overall complexity significantly. Furthermore, it is particularly well
suited for graphs with large spectral gaps
Graph Spectral Image Processing
Recent advent of graph signal processing (GSP) has spurred intensive studies
of signals that live naturally on irregular data kernels described by graphs
(e.g., social networks, wireless sensor networks). Though a digital image
contains pixels that reside on a regularly sampled 2D grid, if one can design
an appropriate underlying graph connecting pixels with weights that reflect the
image structure, then one can interpret the image (or image patch) as a signal
on a graph, and apply GSP tools for processing and analysis of the signal in
graph spectral domain. In this article, we overview recent graph spectral
techniques in GSP specifically for image / video processing. The topics covered
include image compression, image restoration, image filtering and image
segmentation
