Distributed soft thresholding for sparse signal recovery
In this paper, we address the problem of distributed sparse recovery of
signals acquired via compressed measurements in a sensor network. We propose a
new class of distributed algorithms to solve Lasso regression problems, when
the communication to a fusion center is not possible, e.g., due to
communication cost or privacy reasons. More precisely, we introduce a
distributed iterative soft thresholding algorithm (DISTA) that consists of
three steps: an averaging step, a gradient step, and a soft thresholding
operation. We prove the convergence of DISTA in networks represented by regular
graphs, and we compare it with existing methods in terms of performance,
memory, and complexity.Comment: Revised version. Main improvements: extension of the convergence
theorem to regular graphs; new numerical results and comparisons with other
algorithm
D13.1 Fundamental issues on energy- and bandwidth-efficient communications and networking
Deliverable D13.1 del projecte europeu NEWCOM#The report presents the current status in the research area of energy- and bandwidth-efficient communications and networking and highlights the fundamental issues still open for further investigation. Furthermore, the report presents the Joint Research Activities (JRAs) which will be performed within WP1.3. For each activity there is the description, the identification of the adherence with the identified fundamental open issues, a presentation of the initial results, and a roadmap for the planned joint research work in each topic.Preprin
