    Abstract

    The Compressive Sensing (CS) framework aims to ease the burden on
    analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) by reducing the sampling rate required to
    acquire and stably recover sparse signals. Practical ADCs not only sample but
    also quantize each measurement to a finite number of bits; moreover, there is
    an inverse relationship between the achievable sampling rate and the bit depth.
    In this paper, we investigate an alternative CS approach that shifts the
    emphasis from the sampling rate to the number of bits per measurement.

  2. Universal Rate-Efficient Scalar Quantization.

    Abstract

    Scalar quantization is the most practical and straightforward approach to
    signal quantization. However, it has been shown that scalar quantization of
    oversampled or Compressively Sensed signals can be inefficient in terms of the
    rate-distortion trade-off, especially as the oversampling rate or the sparsity
    of the signal increases. In this paper, we modify the scalar quantizer to have
    discontinuous quantization regions.

  3. Sparse Recovery from Combined Fusion Frame Measurements.

    Abstract

    Sparse representations have emerged as a powerful tool in signal and
    information processing, culminated by the success of new acquisition and
    processing techniques such as Compressed Sensing (CS). Fusion frames are very
    rich new signal representation methods that use collections of subspaces
    instead of vectors to represent signals. This work combines these exciting
    fields to introduce a new sparsity model for fusion frames. Signals that are
    sparse under the new model can be compressively sampled and uniquely
    reconstructed in ways similar to sparse signals using standard CS.

  4. A simple proof that random matrices are democratic.

    Subjects: Numerical Analysis
    Abstract

    The recently introduced theory of compressive sensing (CS) enables the
    reconstruction of sparse or compressible signals from a small set of
    nonadaptive, linear measurements. If properly chosen, the number of
    measurements can be significantly smaller than the ambient dimension of the
    signal and yet preserve the significant signal information. Interestingly, it
    can be shown that random measurement schemes provide a near-optimal encoding in
    terms of the required number of measurements.
