Sparsity-Cognizant Total Least-Squares for Perturbed Compressive Sampling
Solving linear regression problems based on the total least-squares (TLS)
criterion has well-documented merits in various applications, where
perturbations appear both in the data vector as well as in the regression
matrix. However, existing TLS approaches do not account for sparsity possibly
present in the unknown vector of regression coefficients. On the other hand,
sparsity is the key attribute exploited by modern compressive sampling and
variable selection approaches to linear regression, which include noise in the
data, but do not account for perturbations in the regression matrix. The
present paper fills this gap by formulating and solving TLS optimization
problems under sparsity constraints. Near-optimum and reduced-complexity
suboptimum sparse (S-) TLS algorithms are developed to address the perturbed
compressive sampling (and the related dictionary learning) challenge, when
there is a mismatch between the true and adopted bases over which the unknown
vector is sparse. The novel S-TLS schemes also allow for perturbations in the
regression matrix of the least-absolute selection and shrinkage selection
operator (Lasso), and endow TLS approaches with ability to cope with sparse,
under-determined "errors-in-variables" models. Interesting generalizations can
further exploit prior knowledge on the perturbations to obtain novel weighted
and structured S-TLS solvers. Analysis and simulations demonstrate the
practical impact of S-TLS in calibrating the mismatch effects of contemporary
grid-based approaches to cognitive radio sensing, and robust
direction-of-arrival estimation using antenna arrays.Comment: 30 pages, 10 figures, submitted to IEEE Transactions on Signal

Sparse Volterra and Polynomial Regression Models: Recoverability and Estimation
Volterra and polynomial regression models play a major role in nonlinear
system identification and inference tasks. Exciting applications ranging from
neuroscience to genome-wide association analysis build on these models with the
additional requirement of parsimony. This requirement has high interpretative
value, but unfortunately cannot be met by least-squares based or kernel
regression methods. To this end, compressed sampling (CS) approaches, already
successful in linear regression settings, can offer a viable alternative. The
viability of CS for sparse Volterra and polynomial models is the core theme of
this work. A common sparse regression task is initially posed for the two
models. Building on (weighted) Lasso-based schemes, an adaptive RLS-type
algorithm is developed for sparse polynomial regressions. The identifiability
of polynomial models is critically challenged by dimensionality. However,
following the CS principle, when these models are sparse, they could be
recovered by far fewer measurements. To quantify the sufficient number of
measurements for a given level of sparsity, restricted isometry properties
(RIP) are investigated in commonly met polynomial regression settings,
generalizing known results for their linear counterparts. The merits of the
novel (weighted) adaptive CS algorithms to sparse polynomial modeling are
verified through synthetic as well as real data tests for genotype-phenotype
analysis.Comment: 20 pages, to appear in IEEE Trans. on Signal Processin
Tensor Networks for Dimensionality Reduction and Large-Scale Optimizations. Part 2 Applications and Future Perspectives
Part 2 of this monograph builds on the introduction to tensor networks and
their operations presented in Part 1. It focuses on tensor network models for
super-compressed higher-order representation of data/parameters and related
cost functions, while providing an outline of their applications in machine
learning and data analytics. A particular emphasis is on the tensor train (TT)
and Hierarchical Tucker (HT) decompositions, and their physically meaningful
interpretations which reflect the scalability of the tensor network approach.
Through a graphical approach, we also elucidate how, by virtue of the
underlying low-rank tensor approximations and sophisticated contractions of
core tensors, tensor networks have the ability to perform distributed
computations on otherwise prohibitively large volumes of data/parameters,
thereby alleviating or even eliminating the curse of dimensionality. The
usefulness of this concept is illustrated over a number of applied areas,
including generalized regression and classification (support tensor machines,
canonical correlation analysis, higher order partial least squares),
generalized eigenvalue decomposition, Riemannian optimization, and in the
optimization of deep neural networks. Part 1 and Part 2 of this work can be
used either as stand-alone separate texts, or indeed as a conjoint
comprehensive review of the exciting field of low-rank tensor networks and
tensor decompositions.Comment: 232 page
