On stable reconstructions from nonuniform Fourier measurements
We consider the problem of recovering a compactly-supported function from a
finite collection of pointwise samples of its Fourier transform taking
nonuniformly. First, we show that under suitable conditions on the sampling
frequencies - specifically, their density and bandwidth - it is possible to
recover any such function in a stable and accurate manner in any given
finite-dimensional subspace; in particular, one which is well suited for
approximating . In practice, this is carried out using so-called nonuniform
generalized sampling (NUGS). Second, we consider approximation spaces in one
dimension consisting of compactly supported wavelets. We prove that a linear
scaling of the dimension of the space with the sampling bandwidth is both
necessary and sufficient for stable and accurate recovery. Thus wavelets are up
to constant factors optimal spaces for reconstruction
-Analysis Minimization and Generalized (Co-)Sparsity: When Does Recovery Succeed?
This paper investigates the problem of signal estimation from undersampled
noisy sub-Gaussian measurements under the assumption of a cosparse model. Based
on generalized notions of sparsity, we derive novel recovery guarantees for the
-analysis basis pursuit, enabling highly accurate predictions of its
sample complexity. The corresponding bounds on the number of required
measurements do explicitly depend on the Gram matrix of the analysis operator
and therefore particularly account for its mutual coherence structure. Our
findings defy conventional wisdom which promotes the sparsity of analysis
coefficients as the crucial quantity to study. In fact, this common paradigm
breaks down completely in many situations of practical interest, for instance,
when applying a redundant (multilevel) frame as analysis prior. By extensive
numerical experiments, we demonstrate that, in contrast, our theoretical
sampling-rate bounds reliably capture the recovery capability of various
examples, such as redundant Haar wavelets systems, total variation, or random
frames. The proofs of our main results build upon recent achievements in the
convex geometry of data mining problems. More precisely, we establish a
sophisticated upper bound on the conic Gaussian mean width that is associated
with the underlying -analysis polytope. Due to a novel localization
argument, it turns out that the presented framework naturally extends to stable
recovery, allowing us to incorporate compressible coefficient sequences as
well
