Backward-optimized orthogonal matching pursuit approach
A recursive approach for shrinking coefficients of an atomic decomposition is proposed. The corresponding algorithm evolves so as to provide at each iteration 1) the orthogonal projection of a signal onto a reduced subspace and 2) the index of the coefficient to be disregarded in order to construct a coarser approximation minimizing the norm of the residual error
From cardinal spline wavelet bases to highly coherent dictionaries
Wavelet families arise by scaling and translations of a prototype function, called the mother wavelet. The construction of wavelet bases for cardinal spline spaces is generally carried out within the multi-resolution analysis scheme. Thus, the usual way of increasing the dimension of the multi-resolution subspaces is by augmenting the scaling factor. We show here that, when working on a compact interval, the identical effect can be achieved without changing the wavelet scale but reducing the translation parameter. By such a procedure we generate a redundant frame, called a dictionary, spanning the same spaces as a wavelet basis but with wavelets of broader support. We characterize the correlation of the dictionary elements by measuring their 'coherence' and produce examples illustrating the relevance of highly coherent dictionaries to problems of sparse signal representation
System Priors for Econometric Time Series
This paper introduces “system priors” into Bayesian analysis of econometric time series and provides a simple and illustrative application. Unlike priors on individual parameters, system priors offer a simple and efficient way of formulating well-defined and economically meaningful priors about model properties that determine the overall behavior of the model. The generality of system priors is illustrated using an AR(2) process with a prior that its dynamics comes mostly from business-cycle frequencies
Cardinal B-spline dictionaries on a compact interval
A prescription for constructing dictionaries for cardinal spline spaces on a compact interval is provided. It is proved that such spaces can be spanned by dictionaries which are built by translating a prototype B-spline function of fixed support into the knots of the required cardinal spline space. This implies that cardinal spline spaces on a compact interval can be spanned by dictionaries of cardinal B-spline functions of broader support that the corresponding basis function
