Joint Quantization and Diffusion for Compressed Sensing Measurements of Natural Images
Recent research advances have revealed the computational secrecy of the
compressed sensing (CS) paradigm. Perfect secrecy can also be achieved by
normalizing the CS measurement vector. However, these findings are established
on real measurements while digital devices can only store measurements at a
finite precision. Based on the distribution of measurements of natural images
sensed by structurally random ensemble, a joint quantization and diffusion
approach is proposed for these real-valued measurements. In this way, a
nonlinear cryptographic diffusion is intrinsically imposed on the CS process
and the overall security level is thus enhanced. Security analyses show that
the proposed scheme is able to resist known-plaintext attack while the original
CS scheme without quantization cannot. Experimental results demonstrate that
the reconstruction quality of our scheme is comparable to that of the original
one.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Tensor Decompositions for Signal Processing Applications From Two-way to Multiway Component Analysis
The widespread use of multi-sensor technology and the emergence of big
datasets has highlighted the limitations of standard flat-view matrix models
and the necessity to move towards more versatile data analysis tools. We show
that higher-order tensors (i.e., multiway arrays) enable such a fundamental
paradigm shift towards models that are essentially polynomial and whose
uniqueness, unlike the matrix methods, is guaranteed under verymild and natural
conditions. Benefiting fromthe power ofmultilinear algebra as theirmathematical
backbone, data analysis techniques using tensor decompositions are shown to
have great flexibility in the choice of constraints that match data properties,
and to find more general latent components in the data than matrix-based
methods. A comprehensive introduction to tensor decompositions is provided from
a signal processing perspective, starting from the algebraic foundations, via
basic Canonical Polyadic and Tucker models, through to advanced cause-effect
and multi-view data analysis schemes. We show that tensor decompositions enable
natural generalizations of some commonly used signal processing paradigms, such
as canonical correlation and subspace techniques, signal separation, linear
regression, feature extraction and classification. We also cover computational
aspects, and point out how ideas from compressed sensing and scientific
computing may be used for addressing the otherwise unmanageable storage and
manipulation problems associated with big datasets. The concepts are supported
by illustrative real world case studies illuminating the benefits of the tensor
framework, as efficient and promising tools for modern signal processing, data
analysis and machine learning applications; these benefits also extend to
vector/matrix data through tensorization. Keywords: ICA, NMF, CPD, Tucker

Recovery from Linear Measurements with Complexity-Matching Universal Signal Estimation
We study the compressed sensing (CS) signal estimation problem where an input
signal is measured via a linear matrix multiplication under additive noise.
While this setup usually assumes sparsity or compressibility in the input
signal during recovery, the signal structure that can be leveraged is often not
known a priori. In this paper, we consider universal CS recovery, where the
statistics of a stationary ergodic signal source are estimated simultaneously
with the signal itself. Inspired by Kolmogorov complexity and minimum
description length, we focus on a maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation
framework that leverages universal priors to match the complexity of the
source. Our framework can also be applied to general linear inverse problems
where more measurements than in CS might be needed. We provide theoretical
results that support the algorithmic feasibility of universal MAP estimation
using a Markov chain Monte Carlo implementation, which is computationally
challenging. We incorporate some techniques to accelerate the algorithm while
providing comparable and in many cases better reconstruction quality than
existing algorithms. Experimental results show the promise of universality in
CS, particularly for low-complexity sources that do not exhibit standard
sparsity or compressibility.Comment: 29 pages, 8 figure
