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.
Non-uniform recovery results have been shown in @cite_16 @cite_11 @cite_6 which require only @math measurements for exact recovery from (deterministically) subsampled random convolutions via @math -minimization.

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. We investigate the minimization of Newton's functional for the problem of the body of minimal resistance with maximal height @math cite butt in the class of convex developable functions defined in a disc. This class is a natural candidate to find a (non-radial) minimizer in accordance with the results of cite lrp2. We prove that the minimizer in this class has a minimal set in the form of a regular polygon with @math sides centered in the disc, and numerical experiments indicate that the natural number @math is a non-decreasing function of @math . The corresponding functions all achieve a lower value of the functional than the optimal radially symmetric function with the same height @math . We consider the problem of clustering a graph @math into two communities by observing a subset of the vertex correlations. Specifically, we consider the inverse problem with observed variables @math , where @math is the incidence matrix of a graph @math , @math is the vector of unknown vertex variables (with a uniform prior), and @math is a noise vector with Bernoulli @math i.i.d. entries. All variables and operations are Boolean. This model is motivated by coding, synchronization, and community detection problems. In particular, it corresponds to a stochastic block model or a correlation clustering problem with two communities and censored edges. Without noise, exact recovery (up to global flip) of @math is possible if and only the graph @math is connected, with a sharp threshold at the edge probability @math for Erdős-Renyi random graphs. The first goal of this paper is to determine how the edge probability @math needs to scale to allow exact recovery in the presence of noise. Defining the degree rate of the graph by @math , it is shown that exact recovery is possible if and only if @math . In other words, @math is the information theoretic threshold for exact recovery at low-SNR. In addition, an efficient recovery algorithm based on semidefinite programming is proposed and shown to succeed in the threshold regime up to twice the optimal rate. For a deterministic graph @math , defining the degree rate as @math , where @math is the minimum degree of the graph, it is shown that the proposed method achieves the rate @math , where @math is the spectral gap of the graph @math . 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. In this paper we develop a novel computational sensing framework for sensing and recovering structured signals. When trained on a set of representative signals, our framework learns to take undersampled measurements and recover signals from them using a deep convolutional neural network. In other words, it learns a transformation from the original signals to a near-optimal number of undersampled measurements and the inverse transformation from measurements to signals. This is in contrast to traditional compressive sensing (CS) systems that use random linear measurements and convex optimization or iterative algorithms for signal recovery. We compare our new framework with @math -minimization from the phase transition point of view and demonstrate that it outperforms @math -minimization in the regions of phase transition plot where @math -minimization cannot recover the exact solution. In addition, we experimentally demonstrate how learning measurements enhances the overall recovery performance, speeds up training of recovery framework, and leads to having fewer parameters to learn. Scholars are increasingly citing electronic “web references” which are not preserved in libraries or full text archives. WebCite is a new standard for citing web references. To “webcite” a document involves archiving the cited Web page through www.webcitation.org and citing the WebCite permalink instead of (or in addition to) the unstable live Web page. This journal has amended its “instructions for authors” accordingly, asking authors to archive cited Web pages before submitting a manuscript. Almost 200 other journals are already using the system. We discuss the rationale for WebCite, its technology, and how scholars, editors, and publishers can benefit from the service. Citing scholars initiate an archiving process of all cited Web references, ideally before they submit a manuscript. Authors of online documents and websites which are expected to be cited by others can ensure that their work is permanently available by creating an archived copy using WebCite and providing the citation information including the WebCite link on their Web document(s). Editors should ask their authors to cache all cited Web addresses (Uniform Resource Locators, or URLs) “prospectively” before submitting their manuscripts to their journal. Editors and publishers should also instruct their copyeditors to cache cited Web material if the author has not done so already. Finally, WebCite can process publisher submitted “citing articles” (submitted for example as eXtensible Markup Language [XML] documents) to automatically archive all cited Web pages shortly before or on publication. Finally, WebCite can act as a focussed crawler, caching retrospectively references of already published articles. Copyright issues are addressed by honouring respective Internet standards (robot exclusion files, no-cache and no-archive tags). Long-term preservation is ensured by agreements with libraries and digital preservation organizations. The resulting WebCite Index may also have applications for research assessment exercises, being able to measure the impact of Web services and published Web documents through access and Web citation metrics. @PARASPLIT [J Med Internet Res 2005;7(5):e60] Abstract Documents in computer-readable form can be used to provide information about other documents, i.e. those they cite. To do this efficiently requires procedures for computer recognition of citing statements. This is not easy, especially for multi-sentence citing statements. Computer recognition procedures have been developed which are accurate to the following extent: 73 of the words in statements selected by computer procedures as being citing statements are words which are correctly attributable to the corresponding documents. The retrieval effectiveness of computer-recognized citing statements was tested in the following way. First, for eight retrieval requests in inorganiic chemistry, average recall by search of Chemical Abstracts Service indexing and Chemical Abstracts abstract text words was found to be 50 . Words from citing statements referring to the papers to be retrieved were then added to the index terms and abstract words as additional access points, and searching was repeated. Average recall increased to 70 . Only words from citing statements published within a year of the cited papers were used. The retrieval effect of citing statement words alone (published within a year) without index or abstract terms was the following: average recall was 40 . When just the words of the titles of the cited papers were added to those citing statement words, average recall increased to 50 . A citing sentence is one that appears in a scientific article and cites previous work. Citing sentences have been studied and used in many applications. For example, they have been used in scientific paper summarization, automatic survey generation, paraphrase identification, and citation function classification. Citing sentences that cite multiple papers are common in scientific writing. This observation should be taken into consideration when using citing sentences in applications. For instance, when a citing sentence is used in a summary of a scientific paper, only the fragments of the sentence that are relevant to the summarized paper should be included in the summary. In this paper, we present and compare three different approaches for identifying the fragments of a citing sentence that are related to a given target reference. Our methods are: word classification, sequence labeling, and segment classification. Our experiments show that segment classification achieves the best results. We consider the problem of estimating a deterministic finite alphabet vector @math from underdetermined measurements @math , where @math is a given (random) @math matrix. Two new convex optimization methods are introduced for the recovery of finite alphabet signals via @math -norm minimization. The first method is based on regularization. In the second approach, the problem is formulated as the recovery of sparse signals after a suitable sparse transform. The regularization-based method is less complex than the transform-based one. When the alphabet size @math equals 2 and @math grows proportionally, the conditions under which the signal will be recovered with high probability are the same for the two methods. When @math , the behavior of the transform-based method is established. Experimental results support this theoretical result and show that the transform method outperforms the regularization-based one. We investigate the sparse recovery problem of reconstructing a high-dimensional non-negative sparse vector from lower dimensional linear measurements. While much work has focused on dense measurement matrices, sparse measurement schemes are crucial in applications, such as DNA microarrays and sensor networks, where dense measurements are not practically feasible. One possible construction uses the adjacency matrices of expander graphs, which often leads to recovery algorithms much more efficient than @math minimization. However, to date, constructions based on expanders have required very high expansion coefficients which can potentially make the construction of such graphs difficult and the size of the recoverable sets small. In this paper, we construct sparse measurement matrices for the recovery of non-negative vectors, using perturbations of the adjacency matrix of an expander graph with much smaller expansion coefficient. We present a necessary and sufficient condition for @math optimization to successfully recover the unknown vector and obtain expressions for the recovery threshold. For certain classes of measurement matrices, this necessary and sufficient condition is further equivalent to the existence of a "unique" vector in the constraint set, which opens the door to alternative algorithms to @math minimization. We further show that the minimal expansion we use is necessary for any graph for which sparse recovery is possible and that therefore our construction is tight. We finally present a novel recovery algorithm that exploits expansion and is much faster than @math optimization. Finally, we demonstrate through theoretical bounds, as well as simulation, that our method is robust to noise and approximate sparsity. Consider the problem of recovering a measure @math supported on a lattice of span @math , when measurements are only available concerning the Fourier Transform @math at frequencies @math . If @math is much smaller than the Nyquist frequency @math and the measurements are noisy, then, in general, stable recovery of @math is impossible. In this paper it is shown that if, in addition, we know that the measure @math satisfies certain sparsity constraints, then stable recovery is possible. Say that a set has Rayleigh index less than or equal to R if in any interval of length @math there are at most R elements. Indeed, if the (unknown) support of @math is known, a priori, to have Rayleigh index at most R, then stable recovery is possible with a stability coefficient that grows at most like @math as @math . This result validates certain practical efforts, in spectroscopy, seismic prospecting, and astrono... We consider the problem of estimating the discrete clustering structures under Sub-Gaussian Mixture Models. Our main results establish a hidden integrality property of a semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation for this problem: while the optimal solutions to the SDP are not integer-valued in general, their estimation errors can be upper bounded in terms of the error of an idealized integer program. The error of the integer program, and hence that of the SDP, are further shown to decay exponentially in the signal-to-noise ratio. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first exponentially decaying error bound for convex relaxations of mixture models, and our results reveal the "global-to-local" mechanism that drives the performance of the SDP relaxation. A corollary of our results shows that in certain regimes the SDP solutions are in fact integral and exact, improving on existing exact recovery results for convex relaxations. More generally, our results establish sufficient conditions for the SDP to correctly recover the cluster memberships of @math fraction of the points for any @math . As a special case, we show that under the @math -dimensional Stochastic Ball Model, SDP achieves non-trivial (sometimes exact) recovery when the center separation is as small as @math , which complements previous exact recovery results that require constant separation. Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to suggest an alternative to the widely used Times Cited criterion for analysing citation networks. The approach involves taking account of the natures of the papers that cite a given paper, so as to differentiate between papers that attract the same number of citations.Design methodology approach – ArticleRank is an algorithm that has been derived from Google's PageRank algorithm to measure the influence of journal articles. ArticleRank is applied to two datasets – a citation network based on an early paper on webometrics, and a self‐citation network based on the 19 most cited papers in the Journal of Documentation – using citation data taken from the Web of Knowledge database.Findings – ArticleRank values provide a different ranking of a set of papers from that provided by the corresponding Times Cited values, and overcomes the inability of the latter to differentiate between papers with the same numbers of citations. The difference in rankings between Times Cited ... In a document network such as a citation network of scientific documents, web-logs, etc., the content produced by authors exhibits their interest in certain topics. In addition some authors influence other authors' interests. In this work, we propose to model the influence of cited authors along with the interests of citing authors. Moreover, we hypothesize that apart from the citations present in documents, the context surrounding the citation mention provides extra topical information about the cited authors. However, associating terms in the context to the cited authors remains an open problem. We propose novel document generation schemes that incorporate the context while simultaneously modeling the interests of citing authors and influence of the cited authors. Our experiments show significant improvements over baseline models for various evaluation criteria such as link prediction between document and cited author, and quantitatively explaining unseen text. We study exact recovery conditions for convex relaxations of point cloud clustering problems, focusing on two of the most common optimization problems for unsupervised clustering: @math -means and @math -median clustering. Motivations for focusing on convex relaxations are: (a) they come with a certificate of optimality, and (b) they are generic tools which are relatively parameter-free, not tailored to specific assumptions over the input. More precisely, we consider the distributional setting where there are @math clusters in @math and data from each cluster consists of @math points sampled from a symmetric distribution within a ball of unit radius. We ask: what is the minimal separation distance between cluster centers needed for convex relaxations to exactly recover these @math clusters as the optimal integral solution? For the @math -median linear programming relaxation we show a tight bound: exact recovery is obtained given arbitrarily small pairwise separation @math between the balls. In other words, the pairwise center separation is @math . Under the same distributional model, the @math -means LP relaxation fails to recover such clusters at separation as large as @math . Yet, if we enforce PSD constraints on the @math -means LP, we get exact cluster recovery at center separation @math . In contrast, common heuristics such as Lloyd's algorithm (a.k.a. the @math -means algorithm) can fail to recover clusters in this setting; even with arbitrarily large cluster separation, k-means++ with overseeding by any constant factor fails with high probability at exact cluster recovery. To complement the theoretical analysis, we provide an experimental study of the recovery guarantees for these various methods, and discuss several open problems which these experiments suggest. 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. This paper demonstrates that convolution with random waveform followed by random time-domain subsampling is a universally efficient compressive sensing strategy. We show that an @math -dimensional signal which is @math -sparse in any fixed orthonormal representation can be recovered from @math samples from its convolution with a pulse whose Fourier transform has unit magnitude and random phase at all frequencies. The time-domain subsampling can be done in one of two ways: in the first, we simply observe @math samples of the random convolution; in the second, we break the random convolution into @math blocks and summarize each with a single randomized sum. We also discuss several imaging applications where convolution with a random pulse allows us to superresolve fine-scale features, allowing us to recover high-resolution signals from low-resolution measurements. Recovering a low-rank tensor from incomplete information is a recurring problem in signal processing and machine learning. The most popular convex relaxation of this problem minimizes the sum of the nuclear norms of the unfoldings of the tensor. We show that this approach can be substantially suboptimal: reliably recovering a @math -way tensor of length @math and Tucker rank @math from Gaussian measurements requires @math observations. In contrast, a certain (intractable) nonconvex formulation needs only @math observations. We introduce a very simple, new convex relaxation, which partially bridges this gap. Our new formulation succeeds with @math observations. While these results pertain to Gaussian measurements, simulations strongly suggest that the new norm also outperforms the sum of nuclear norms for tensor completion from a random subset of entries. Our lower bound for the sum-of-nuclear-norms model follows from a new result on recovering signals with multiple sparse structures (e.g. sparse, low rank), which perhaps surprisingly demonstrates the significant suboptimality of the commonly used recovery approach via minimizing the sum of individual sparsity inducing norms (e.g. @math , nuclear norm). Our new formulation for low-rank tensor recovery however opens the possibility in reducing the sample complexity by exploiting several structures jointly. Consider the recovery of an unknown signal @math from quantized linear measurements. In the one-bit compressive sensing setting, one typically assumes that @math is sparse, and that the measurements are of the form @math . Since such measurements give no information on the norm of @math , recovery methods from such measurements typically assume that @math . We show that if one allows more generally for quantized affine measurements of the form @math , and if the vectors @math are random, an appropriate choice of the affine shifts @math allows norm recovery to be easily incorporated into existing methods for one-bit compressive sensing. Additionally, we show that for arbitrary fixed @math in the annulus @math , one may estimate the norm @math up to additive error @math from @math such binary measurements through a single evaluation of the inverse Gaussian error function. Finally, all of our recovery guarantees can be made universal over sparse vectors, in the sense that with high probability, one set of measurements and thresholds can successfully estimate all sparse vectors @math within a Euclidean ball of known radius. In recent years scholars have built maps of science by connecting the academic fields that cite each other, are cited together, or that cite a similar literature. But since scholars cannot always publish in the fields they cite, or that cite them, these science maps are only rough proxies for the potential of a scholar, organization, or country, to enter a new academic field. Here we use a large dataset of scholarly publications disambiguated at the individual level to create a map of science-or research space-where links connect pairs of fields based on the probability that an individual has published in both of them. We find that the research space is a significantly more accurate predictor of the fields that individuals and organizations will enter in the future than citation based science maps. At the country level, however, the research space and citations based science maps are equally accurate. These findings show that data on career trajectories-the set of fields that individuals have previously published in-provide more accurate predictors of future research output for more focalized units-such as individuals or organizations-than citation based science maps.
