Sampling and Reconstruction of Sparse Signals on Circulant Graphs - An Introduction to Graph-FRI
With the objective of employing graphs toward a more generalized theory of
signal processing, we present a novel sampling framework for (wavelet-)sparse
signals defined on circulant graphs which extends basic properties of Finite
Rate of Innovation (FRI) theory to the graph domain, and can be applied to
arbitrary graphs via suitable approximation schemes. At its core, the
introduced Graph-FRI-framework states that any K-sparse signal on the vertices
of a circulant graph can be perfectly reconstructed from its
dimensionality-reduced representation in the graph spectral domain, the Graph
Fourier Transform (GFT), of minimum size 2K. By leveraging the recently
developed theory of e-splines and e-spline wavelets on graphs, one can
decompose this graph spectral transformation into the multiresolution low-pass
filtering operation with a graph e-spline filter, and subsequent transformation
to the spectral graph domain; this allows to infer a distinct sampling pattern,
and, ultimately, the structure of an associated coarsened graph, which
preserves essential properties of the original, including circularity and,
where applicable, the graph generating set.Comment: To appear in Appl. Comput. Harmon. Anal. (2017
On Sparse Representation in Fourier and Local Bases
We consider the classical problem of finding the sparse representation of a
signal in a pair of bases. When both bases are orthogonal, it is known that the
sparse representation is unique when the sparsity of the signal satisfies
, where is the mutual coherence of the dictionary.
Furthermore, the sparse representation can be obtained in polynomial time by
Basis Pursuit (BP), when . Therefore, there is a gap between the
unicity condition and the one required to use the polynomial-complexity BP
formulation. For the case of general dictionaries, it is also well known that
finding the sparse representation under the only constraint of unicity is
NP-hard.
In this paper, we introduce, for the case of Fourier and canonical bases, a
polynomial complexity algorithm that finds all the possible -sparse
representations of a signal under the weaker condition that . Consequently, when , the proposed algorithm solves the
unique sparse representation problem for this structured dictionary in
polynomial time. We further show that the same method can be extended to many
other pairs of bases, one of which must have local atoms. Examples include the
union of Fourier and local Fourier bases, the union of discrete cosine
transform and canonical bases, and the union of random Gaussian and canonical
bases
Multichannel sampling of signals with finite rate of innovation
Consider a multichannel sampling system consisting of many acquisition devices observing an input finite rate of innovation (FRI) signal, a non-bandlimited signal that has finite number of parameters [1, 2]. Each acquisition device has access to a delayed version of the input signal where the delays are unknown. By synchronizing the different channels exactly we are able to reduce the number of samples needed from each channel resulting in a more efficient sampling system. Figure 1 shows the described multichannel sampling system where the bank of acquisition devices ϕ1(x, y), ϕ2(x, y),..., ϕN−1(x, y) receive different versions of the input FRI signal g0(x, y). Here, the delay
