In this paper, we investigate a new compressive sensing model for multi-channel sparse data where each channel can be represented as a hierarchical tree and different channels are highly correlated. Therefore, the full data could follow the forest structure and we call this property forest sparsity. It exploits both intra- and inter- channel correlations and enriches the family of existing model-based compressive sensing theories. The proposed theory indicates that only @math measurements are required for multi-channel data with forest sparsity, where @math is the number of channels, @math and @math are the length and sparsity number of each channel, respectively. This result is much better than @math of tree sparsity, @math of joint sparsity, and far better than @math of standard sparsity. In addition, we extend the forest sparsity theory to the multiple measurement vectors problem, where the measurement matrix is a block-diagonal matrix. The result shows that the required measurement bound can be the same as that for dense random measurement matrix, when the data shares equal energy in each channel. A new algorithm is developed and applied on four example applications to validate the benefit of the proposed model. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed theory and algorithm.
For both case, we have @math . Similar conclusion has been drawn in previous articles @cite_21 @cite_51 . So far, we have reviewed standard sparsity and tree sparsity on single channel data. For multi-channel data that contains @math channels or vectors (i.e. @math ), each of which is standardly @math -sparse, the bound for the number of measurement should be @math . If each channel is tree-sparse and independently, the measurement bound for a sub-Gaussian random matrix @math is @math .

Sparsity of representations of signals has been shown to be a key concept of fundamental importance in fields such as blind source separation, compression, sampling and signal analysis. The aim of this paper is to compare several commonly-used sparsity measures based on intuitive attributes. Intuitively, a sparse representation is one in which a small number of coefficients contain a large proportion of the energy. In this paper, six properties are discussed: (Robin Hood, Scaling, Rising Tide, Cloning, Bill Gates, and Babies), each of which a sparsity measure should have. The main contributions of this paper are the proofs and the associated summary table which classify commonly-used sparsity measures based on whether or not they satisfy these six propositions. Only two of these measures satisfy all six: the pq-mean with p les 1, q > 1 and the Gini index. This paper provides novel results for the recovery of signals from undersampled measurements based on analysis @math -minimization, when the analysis operator is given by a frame. We both provide so-called uniform and nonuniform recovery guarantees for cosparse (analysis-sparse) signals using Gaussian random measurement matrices. The nonuniform result relies on a recovery condition via tangent cones and the uniform recovery guarantee is based on an analysis version of the null space property. Examining these conditions for Gaussian random matrices leads to precise bounds on the number of measurements required for successful recovery. In the special case of standard sparsity, our result improves a bound due to Rudelson and Vershynin concerning the exact reconstruction of sparse signals from Gaussian measurements with respect to the constant and extends it to stability under passing to approximately sparse signals and to robustness under noise on the measurements. We study the recovery of sparse vectors from subsampled random convolutions via @math -minimization. We consider the setup in which both the subsampling locations as well as the generating vector are chosen at random. For a subgaussian generator with independent entries, we improve previously known estimates: if the sparsity @math is small enough, i.e., @math , we show that @math measurements are sufficient to recover @math -sparse vectors in dimension @math with high probability, matching the well-known condition for recovery from standard Gaussian measurements. If @math is larger, then essentially @math measurements are sufficient, again improving over previous estimates. Our results are shown via the so-called robust null space property which is weaker than the standard restricted isometry property. Our method of proof involves a novel combination of small ball estimates with chaining techniques which should be of independent interest. In this paper we consider memoryless one-bit compressed sensing with randomly subsampled Gaussian circulant matrices. We show that in a small sparsity regime and for small enough accuracy @math , @math measurements suffice to reconstruct the direction of any @math -sparse vector up to accuracy @math via an efficient program. We derive this result by proving that partial Gaussian circulant matrices satisfy an @math RIP-property. Under a slightly worse dependence on @math , we establish stability with respect to approximate sparsity, as well as full vector recovery results.
