Paper learns hypergraph structures from signals with smoothness priors.

The construction of a meaningful graph plays a crucial role in the success of many graph-based representations and algorithms for handling structured data, especially in the emerging field of graph signal processing. However, a meaningful graph is not always readily available from the data, nor easy to define depending…

We present reconstruction algorithms for smooth signals with block sparsity from their compressed measurements. We tackle the issue of varying group size via group-sparse least absolute shrinkage selection operator (LASSO) as well as via latent group LASSO regularizations. We achieve smoothness in the signal via fusion…

Proposes a new graph trend filtering model for inhomogeneous graph signals.

We develop a multi-kernel based regression method for graph signal processing where the target signal is assumed to be smooth over a graph. In multi-kernel regression, an effective kernel function is expressed as a linear combination of many basis kernel functions. We estimate the linear weights to learn the effective …

Improved signal classification using multiple wavelets and their smooth coefficients.

Proposes a novel graph learning framework for robust graph topology learning from graph signals.

Many problems on signal processing reduce to nonparametric function estimation. We propose a new methodology, piecewise convex fitting (PCF), and give a two-stage adaptive estimate. In the first stage, the number and location of the change points is estimated using strong smoothing. In the second stage, a constrained s…

Motivated by a range of applications in engineering and genomics, we consider in this paper detection of very short signal segments in three settings: signals with known shape, arbitrary signals, and smooth signals. Optimal rates of detection are established for the three cases and rate-optimal detectors are constructe…

We consider the problem of signal recovery on graphs as graphs model data with complex structure as signals on a graph. Graph signal recovery implies recovery of one or multiple smooth graph signals from noisy, corrupted, or incomplete measurements. We propose a graph signal model and formulate signal recovery as a cor…

In this article, we improve extreme learning machines for regression tasks using a graph signal processing based regularization. We assume that the target signal for prediction or regression is a graph signal. With this assumption, we use the regularization to enforce that the output of an extreme learning machine is s…

Develops method for learning signed graphs from smooth signals.

The paper explores various stationarity concepts in non-smooth optimization.

This work aims at recovering signals that are sparse on graphs. Compressed sensing offers techniques for signal recovery from a few linear measurements and graph Fourier analysis provides a signal representation on graph. In this paper, we leverage these two frameworks to introduce a new Lasso recovery algorithm on gra…

Kähler information manifolds for signal filters in weighted Hardy spaces are explored.

New analysis improves denoising of modulo signals on graphs.

It has been shown recently that graph signals with small total variation can be accurately recovered from only few samples if the sampling set satisfies a certain condition, referred to as the network nullspace property. Based on this recovery condition, we propose a sampling strategy for smooth graph signals based on …

Random forests are a powerful method for non-parametric regression, but are limited in their ability to fit smooth signals, and can show poor predictive performance in the presence of strong, smooth effects. Taking the perspective of random forests as an adaptive kernel method, we pair the forest kernel with a local li…

Unified framework infers time-varying graphs from incomplete signals.

Proposes a novel graph signal model using narrowband kernels.

We study signal recovery on graphs based on two sampling strategies: random sampling and experimentally designed sampling. We propose a new class of smooth graph signals, called approximately bandlimited, which generalizes the bandlimited class and is similar to the globally smooth class. We then propose two recovery s…

The standard approach to compressive sampling considers recovering an unknown deterministic signal with certain known structure, and designing the sub-sampling pattern and recovery algorithm based on the known structure. This approach requires looking for a good representation that reveals the signal structure, and sol…

This paper recovers smooth functions from noisy modulo samples using a three-stage strategy.

A comprehensive methodology is provided for smoothing noisy, irregularly sampled data with non-Gaussian noise using smoothing splines. We demonstrate how the spline order and tension parameter can be chosen a priori from physical reasoning. We also show how to allow for non-Gaussian noise and outliers which are typical…

A new method boosts graph neural networks by preventing over-smoothing and over-squashing.

We propose a framework that learns the graph structure underlying a set of smooth signals. Given $X\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ whose rows reside on the vertices of an unknown graph, we learn the edge weights $w\in\mathbb{R}_+^{m(m-1)/2}$ under the smoothness assumption that $\text{tr}{X^\top LX}$ is small. We show that …

Unified view of GNNs as graph signal denoising.

State-space smoothing has found many applications in science and engineering. Under linear and Gaussian assumptions, smoothed estimates can be obtained using efficient recursions, for example Rauch-Tung-Striebel and Mayne-Fraser algorithms. Such schemes are equivalent to linear algebraic techniques that minimize a conv…

In sensing applications, sensors cannot always measure the latent quantity of interest at the required resolution, sometimes they can only acquire a blurred version of it due the sensor's transfer function. To recover latent signals when only noisy mixed measurements of the signal are available, we propose the Gaussian…

We propose a simple and efficient time-series clustering framework particularly suited for low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), by simultaneous smoothing and dimensionality reduction aimed at preserving clustering information. We extend the sparse K-means algorithm by incorporating structured sparsity, and use it to exploi…

A new method for joint noise removal and trend estimation from sparse signals.

Filter banks are a popular tool for the analysis of piecewise smooth signals such as natural images. Motivated by the empirically observed properties of scale and detail coefficients of images in the wavelet domain, we propose a hierarchical deep generative model of piecewise smooth signals that is a recursion across s…

A method for inferring ground-truth signals from degraded sensor data.

This work studies the denoising of piecewise smooth graph signals that exhibit inhomogeneous levels of smoothness over a graph, where the value at each node can be vector-valued. We extend the graph trend filtering framework to denoising vector-valued graph signals with a family of non-convex regularizers, which exhibi…

Study on signal detection in sparse additive models with nonasymptotic minimax rates.

Signal estimation problems with smoothness and sparsity priors can be naturally modeled as quadratic optimization with $\ell_0$-"norm" constraints. Since such problems are non-convex and hard-to-solve, the standard approach is, instead, to tackle their convex surrogates based on $\ell_1$-norm relaxations. In this paper…

Modern data introduces new challenges to classic signal processing approaches, leading to a growing interest in the field of graph signal processing. A powerful and well established model for real world signals in various domains is sparse representation over a dictionary, combined with the ability to train the diction…

Inverse problems and regularization theory is a central theme in contemporary signal processing, where the goal is to reconstruct an unknown signal from partial indirect, and possibly noisy, measurements of it. A now standard method for recovering the unknown signal is to solve a convex optimization problem that enforc…
