AI Analysis

This addresses robustness issues in compressed sensing applications like signal processing, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing CS theory with matrix uncertainties.

The paper tackles the problem of compressed sensing when sampling and representation matrices have uncertainties, proposing a new optimization model for robust sparse signal reconstruction. Numerical experiments on simulated and real ECG data show the proposed method outperforms current approaches.

Compressed sensing (CS) shows that a signal having a sparse or compressible representation can be recovered from a small set of linear measurements. In classical CS theory, the sampling matrix and representation matrix are assumed to be known exactly in advance. However, uncertainties exist due to sampling distortion, finite grids of the parameter space of dictionary, etc. In this paper, we take a generalized sparse signal model, which simultaneously considers the sampling and representation matrix uncertainties. Based on the new signal model, a new optimization model for robust sparse signal reconstruction is proposed. This optimization model can be deduced with stochastic robust approximation analysis. Both convex relaxation and greedy algorithms are used to solve the optimization problem. For the convex relaxation method, a sufficient condition for recovery by convex relaxation is given; For the greedy algorithm, it is realized by the introduction of a pre-processing of the sensing matrix and the measurements. In numerical experiments, both simulated data and real-life ECG data based results show that the proposed method has a better performance than the current methods.
