This paper considers the problem of optimum reconstruction in generalized sampling-reconstruction processes (GSRPs). We propose constrained GSRP, a novel framework that minimizes the reconstruction error for inputs in a subspace, subject to a constraint on the maximum regret-error for any other signal in the entire signal space. This framework addresses the primary limitation of existing GSRPs (consistent, subspace and minimax regret), namely, the assumption that the a priori subspace is either fully known or fully ignored. We formulate constrained GSRP as a constrained optimization problem, the solution to which turns out to be a convex combination of the subspace and the minimax regret samplings. Detailed theoretical analysis on the reconstruction error shows that constrained sampling achieves a reconstruction that is 1) (sub)optimal for signals in the input subspace, 2) robust for signals around the input subspace, and 3) reasonably bounded for any other signals with a simple choice of the constraint parameter. Experimental results on sampling-reconstruction of a Gaussian input and a speech signal demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
According to @cite_17 , the orthogonal projection @math is subject to a fundamental limitation on the GSRP: Unless the reconstruction subspace is a subset of the sampling subspace, i.e., there exists no correction filter @math that renders the GSRP @math to be the orthogonal projection @math .

We propose a probabilistic formulation of joint silhouette extraction and 3D reconstruction given a series of calibrated 2D images. Instead of segmenting each image separately in order to construct a 3D surface consistent with the estimated silhouettes, we compute the most probable 3D shape that gives rise to the observed color information. The probabilistic framework, based on Bayesian inference, enables robust 3D reconstruction by optimally taking into account the contribution of all views. We solve the arising maximum a posteriori shape inference in a globally optimal manner by convex relaxation techniques in a spatially continuous representation. For an interactively provided user input in the form of scribbles specifying foreground and background regions, we build corresponding color distributions as multivariate Gaussians and find a volume occupancy that best fits to this data in a variational sense. Compared to classical methods for silhouette-based multiview reconstruction, the proposed approach does not depend on initialization and enjoys significant resilience to violations of the model assumptions due to background clutter, specular reflections, and camera sensor perturbations. In experiments on several real-world data sets, we show that exploiting a silhouette coherency criterion in a multiview setting allows for dramatic improvements of silhouette quality over independent 2D segmentations without any significant increase of computational efforts. This results in more accurate visual hull estimation, needed by a multitude of image-based modeling approaches. We made use of recent advances in parallel computing with a GPU implementation of the proposed method generating reconstructions on volume grids of more than 20 million voxels in up to 4.41 seconds. We consider the problem of the reconstruction of a continuous-time function f(x) spl isin H from the samples of the responses of m linear shift-invariant systems sampled at 1 m the reconstruction rate. We extend Papoulis' generalized sampling theory in two important respects. First, our class of admissible input signals (typ. H=L sub 2 ) is considerably larger than the subspace of band-limited functions. Second, we use a more general specification of the reconstruction subspace V( spl psi ), so that the output of the system can take the form of a band-limited function, a spline, or a wavelet expansion. Since we have enlarged the class of admissible input functions, we have to give up Shannon and Papoulis' principle of an exact reconstruction. Instead, we seek an approximation f spl isin V( spl psi ) that is consistent in the sense that it produces exactly the same measurements as the input of the system. This leads to a generalization of Papoulis' sampling theorem and a practical reconstruction algorithm that takes the form of a multivariate filter. In particular, we show that the corresponding system acts as a projector from H onto V( spl psi ). We then propose two complementary polyphase and modulation domain interpretations of our solution. The polyphase representation leads to a simple understanding of our reconstruction algorithm in terms of a perfect reconstruction filter bank. The modulation analysis, on the other hand, is useful in providing the connection with Papoulis' earlier results for the band-limited case. Finally, we illustrate the general applicability of our theory by presenting new examples of interlaced and derivative sampling using splines. This paper presents a new analysis for the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. It is shown that if the restricted isometry property (RIP) is satisfied at sparsity level O(k), then OMP can stably recover a k-sparse signal in 2-norm under measurement noise. For compressed sensing applications, this result implies that in order to uniformly recover a k-sparse signal in Rd, only O(k lnd) random projections are needed. This analysis improves some earlier results on OMP depending on stronger conditions that can only be satisfied with Ω(k2 lnd) or Ω(k1.6 lnd) random projections. We introduce a generalized framework for sampling and reconstruction in separable Hilbert spaces. Specifically, we establish that it is always possible to stably reconstruct a vector in an arbitrary Riesz basis from sufficiently many of its samples in any other Riesz basis. This framework can be viewed as an extension of the well-known consistent reconstruction technique (). However, whilst the latter imposes stringent assumptions on the reconstruction basis, and may in practice be unstable, our framework allows for recovery in any (Riesz) basis in a manner that is completely stable.
