Quantization and Compressive Sensing
Quantization is an essential step in digitizing signals, and, therefore, an
indispensable component of any modern acquisition system. This book chapter
explores the interaction of quantization and compressive sensing and examines
practical quantization strategies for compressive acquisition systems.
Specifically, we first provide a brief overview of quantization and examine
fundamental performance bounds applicable to any quantization approach. Next,
we consider several forms of scalar quantizers, namely uniform, non-uniform,
and 1-bit. We provide performance bounds and fundamental analysis, as well as
practical quantizer designs and reconstruction algorithms that account for
quantization. Furthermore, we provide an overview of Sigma-Delta
() quantization in the compressed sensing context, and also
discuss implementation issues, recovery algorithms and performance bounds. As
we demonstrate, proper accounting for quantization and careful quantizer design
has significant impact in the performance of a compressive acquisition system.Comment: 35 pages, 20 figures, to appear in Springer book "Compressed Sensing

Frame Permutation Quantization
Frame permutation quantization (FPQ) is a new vector quantization technique
using finite frames. In FPQ, a vector is encoded using a permutation source
code to quantize its frame expansion. This means that the encoding is a partial
ordering of the frame expansion coefficients. Compared to ordinary permutation
source coding, FPQ produces a greater number of possible quantization rates and
a higher maximum rate. Various representations for the partitions induced by
FPQ are presented, and reconstruction algorithms based on linear programming,
quadratic programming, and recursive orthogonal projection are derived.
Implementations of the linear and quadratic programming algorithms for uniform
and Gaussian sources show performance improvements over entropy-constrained
scalar quantization for certain combinations of vector dimension and coding
rate. Monte Carlo evaluation of the recursive algorithm shows that mean-squared
error (MSE) decays as 1/M^4 for an M-element frame, which is consistent with
previous results on optimal decay of MSE. Reconstruction using the canonical
dual frame is also studied, and several results relate properties of the
analysis frame to whether linear reconstruction techniques provide consistent
reconstructions.Comment: 29 pages, 5 figures; detailed added to proof of Theorem 4.3 and a few
