    Abstract

    Gaussian and quadratic approximations of message passing algorithms on graphs
    have attracted considerable recent attention due to their computational
    simplicity, analytic tractability, and wide applicability in optimization and
    statistical inference problems. This paper presents a systematic framework for
    incorporating such approximate message passing (AMP) methods in general
    graphical models.

  2. Ranked Sparse Signal Support Detection.

    Abstract

    This paper considers the problem of detecting the support (sparsity pattern)
    of a sparse vector from random noisy measurements. Conditional power of a
    component of the sparse vector is defined as the energy conditioned on the
    component being nonzero. Analysis of a simplified version of orthogonal
    matching pursuit (OMP) called sequential OMP (SequOMP) demonstrates the
    importance of knowledge of the rankings of conditional powers.

  3. Asymptotic Analysis of MAP Estimation via the Replica Method and Applications to Compressed Sensing.

    Authors: Sundeep Rangan, Alyson K. Fletcher, Vivek K Goyal
    Subjects: Information Theory
    Abstract

    The replica method is a non-rigorous but widely-accepted technique from
    statistical physics used in the asymptotic analysis of large, random, nonlinear
    problems. This paper applies the replica method to non-Gaussian maximum a
    posteriori (MAP) estimation. It is shown that with random linear measurements
    and Gaussian noise, the asymptotic behavior of the MAP estimate of an
    n-dimensional vector decouples as n scalar MAP estimators. The result is a
    counterpart to Guo and Verdu's replica analysis of minimum mean-squared error
    estimation.
