New photometric stereo method using learned dictionaries for robustness.

Learning optimal dictionaries for sparse coding has exposed characteristic sparse features of many natural signals. However, universal guarantees of the stability of such features in the presence of noise are lacking. Here, we provide very general conditions guaranteeing when dictionaries yielding the sparsest encoding…

This paper proposes a subspace decomposition method based on an over-complete dictionary in sparse representation, called "Sparse Signal Subspace Decomposition" (or 3SD) method. This method makes use of a novel criterion based on the occurrence frequency of atoms of the dictionary over the data set. This criterion, wel…

We propose a new algorithm to learn a dictionary for reconstructing and sparsely encoding signals from measurements without phase. Specifically, we consider the task of estimating a two-dimensional image from squared-magnitude measurements of a complex-valued linear transformation of the original image. Several recent …

Dictionary learning is the problem of estimating the collection of atomic elements that provide a sparse representation of measured/collected signals or data.

This paper presents the first theoretical results showing that stable identification of overcomplete $μ$-coherent dictionaries $Φ\in \mathbb{R}^{d\times K}$ is locally possible from training signals with sparsity levels $S$ up to the order $O(μ^{-2})$ and signal to noise ratios up to $O(\sqrt{d})$. In particular the di…

In sparse recovery we are given a matrix $A$ (the dictionary) and a vector of the form $A X$ where $X$ is sparse, and the goal is to recover $X$. This is a central notion in signal processing, statistics and machine learning. But in applications such as sparse coding, edge detection, compression and super resolution, t…

The problem of Poisson denoising appears in various imaging applications, such as low-light photography, medical imaging and microscopy. In cases of high SNR, several transformations exist so as to convert the Poisson noise into an additive i.i.d. Gaussian noise, for which many effective algorithms are available. Howev…

This paper studies CSDL's reconstruction risk and finds it consistent in the ultra-sparse setting.

Recently, sparsity-based algorithms are proposed for super-resolution spectrum estimation. However, to achieve adequately high resolution in real-world signal analysis, the dictionary atoms have to be close to each other in frequency, thereby resulting in a coherent design. The popular convex compressed sensing methods…
