Exploiting Prior Knowledge in Compressed Sensing Wireless ECG Systems
Recent results in telecardiology show that compressed sensing (CS) is a
promising tool to lower energy consumption in wireless body area networks for
electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring. However, the performance of current
CS-based algorithms, in terms of compression rate and reconstruction quality of
the ECG, still falls short of the performance attained by state-of-the-art
wavelet based algorithms. In this paper, we propose to exploit the structure of
the wavelet representation of the ECG signal to boost the performance of
CS-based methods for compression and reconstruction of ECG signals. More
precisely, we incorporate prior information about the wavelet dependencies
across scales into the reconstruction algorithms and exploit the high fraction
of common support of the wavelet coefficients of consecutive ECG segments.
Experimental results utilizing the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database show that
significant performance gains, in terms of compression rate and reconstruction
quality, can be obtained by the proposed algorithms compared to current
CS-based methods.Comment: Accepted for publication at IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health

Compressive Imaging via Approximate Message Passing with Image Denoising
We consider compressive imaging problems, where images are reconstructed from
a reduced number of linear measurements. Our objective is to improve over
existing compressive imaging algorithms in terms of both reconstruction error
and runtime. To pursue our objective, we propose compressive imaging algorithms
that employ the approximate message passing (AMP) framework. AMP is an
iterative signal reconstruction algorithm that performs scalar denoising at
each iteration; in order for AMP to reconstruct the original input signal well,
a good denoiser must be used. We apply two wavelet based image denoisers within
AMP. The first denoiser is the "amplitude-scaleinvariant Bayes estimator"
(ABE), and the second is an adaptive Wiener filter; we call our AMP based
algorithms for compressive imaging AMP-ABE and AMP-Wiener. Numerical results
show that both AMP-ABE and AMP-Wiener significantly improve over the state of
the art in terms of runtime. In terms of reconstruction quality, AMP-Wiener
offers lower mean square error (MSE) than existing compressive imaging
algorithms. In contrast, AMP-ABE has higher MSE, because ABE does not denoise
as well as the adaptive Wiener filter.Comment: 15 pages; 2 tables; 7 figures; to appear in IEEE Trans. Signal

Compressive Source Separation: Theory and Methods for Hyperspectral Imaging
With the development of numbers of high resolution data acquisition systems
and the global requirement to lower the energy consumption, the development of
efficient sensing techniques becomes critical. Recently, Compressed Sampling
(CS) techniques, which exploit the sparsity of signals, have allowed to
reconstruct signal and images with less measurements than the traditional
Nyquist sensing approach. However, multichannel signals like Hyperspectral
images (HSI) have additional structures, like inter-channel correlations, that
are not taken into account in the classical CS scheme. In this paper we exploit
the linear mixture of sources model, that is the assumption that the
multichannel signal is composed of a linear combination of sources, each of
them having its own spectral signature, and propose new sampling schemes
exploiting this model to considerably decrease the number of measurements
needed for the acquisition and source separation. Moreover, we give theoretical
lower bounds on the number of measurements required to perform reconstruction
of both the multichannel signal and its sources. We also proposed optimization
algorithms and extensive experimentation on our target application which is
HSI, and show that our approach recovers HSI with far less measurements and
computational effort than traditional CS approaches.Comment: 32 page
