One-bit compressed sensing by linear programming
We give the first computationally tractable and almost optimal solution to
the problem of one-bit compressed sensing, showing how to accurately recover an
s-sparse vector x in R^n from the signs of O(s log^2(n/s)) random linear
measurements of x. The recovery is achieved by a simple linear program. This
result extends to approximately sparse vectors x. Our result is universal in
the sense that with high probability, one measurement scheme will successfully
recover all sparse vectors simultaneously. The argument is based on solving an
equivalent geometric problem on random hyperplane tessellations.Comment: 15 pages, 1 figure, to appear in CPAM. Small changes based on referee

Structured random measurements in signal processing
Compressed sensing and its extensions have recently triggered interest in
randomized signal acquisition. A key finding is that random measurements
provide sparse signal reconstruction guarantees for efficient and stable
algorithms with a minimal number of samples. While this was first shown for
(unstructured) Gaussian random measurement matrices, applications require
certain structure of the measurements leading to structured random measurement
matrices. Near optimal recovery guarantees for such structured measurements
have been developed over the past years in a variety of contexts. This article
surveys the theory in three scenarios: compressed sensing (sparse recovery),
low rank matrix recovery, and phaseless estimation. The random measurement
matrices to be considered include random partial Fourier matrices, partial
random circulant matrices (subsampled convolutions), matrix completion, and
phase estimation from magnitudes of Fourier type measurements. The article
concludes with a brief discussion of the mathematical techniques for the
analysis of such structured random measurements.Comment: 22 pages, 2 figure
Low-complexity Multiclass Encryption by Compressed Sensing
The idea that compressed sensing may be used to encrypt information from
unauthorised receivers has already been envisioned, but never explored in depth
since its security may seem compromised by the linearity of its encoding
process. In this paper we apply this simple encoding to define a general
private-key encryption scheme in which a transmitter distributes the same
encoded measurements to receivers of different classes, which are provided
partially corrupted encoding matrices and are thus allowed to decode the
acquired signal at provably different levels of recovery quality.
The security properties of this scheme are thoroughly analysed: firstly, the
properties of our multiclass encryption are theoretically investigated by
deriving performance bounds on the recovery quality attained by lower-class
receivers with respect to high-class ones. Then we perform a statistical
analysis of the measurements to show that, although not perfectly secure,
compressed sensing grants some level of security that comes at almost-zero cost
and thus may benefit resource-limited applications.
In addition to this we report some exemplary applications of multiclass
encryption by compressed sensing of speech signals, electrocardiographic tracks
and images, in which quality degradation is quantified as the impossibility of
some feature extraction algorithms to obtain sensitive information from
suitably degraded signal recoveries.Comment: IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, accepted for publication.
