Sampling in the Analysis Transform Domain
Many signal and image processing applications have benefited remarkably from
the fact that the underlying signals reside in a low dimensional subspace. One
of the main models for such a low dimensionality is the sparsity one. Within
this framework there are two main options for the sparse modeling: the
synthesis and the analysis ones, where the first is considered the standard
paradigm for which much more research has been dedicated. In it the signals are
assumed to have a sparse representation under a given dictionary. On the other
hand, in the analysis approach the sparsity is measured in the coefficients of
the signal after applying a certain transformation, the analysis dictionary, on
it. Though several algorithms with some theory have been developed for this
framework, they are outnumbered by the ones proposed for the synthesis
methodology.
Given that the analysis dictionary is either a frame or the two dimensional
finite difference operator, we propose a new sampling scheme for signals from
the analysis model that allows to recover them from their samples using any
existing algorithm from the synthesis model. The advantage of this new sampling
strategy is that it makes the existing synthesis methods with their theory also
available for signals from the analysis framework.Comment: 13 Pages, 2 figure
