We explore a fundamental problem of super-resolving a signal of interest from a few measurements of its low-pass magnitudes. We propose a 2-stage tractable algorithm that, in the absence of noise, admits perfect super-resolution of an @math -sparse signal from @math low-pass magnitude measurements. The spike locations of the signal can assume any value over a continuous disk, without increasing the required sample size. The proposed algorithm first employs a conventional super-resolution algorithm (e.g. the matrix pencil approach) to recover unlabeled sets of signal correlation coefficients, and then applies a simple sorting algorithm to disentangle and retrieve the true parameters in a deterministic manner. Our approach can be adapted to multi-dimensional spike models and random Fourier sampling by replacing its first step with other harmonic retrieval algorithms.
In particular, our recovery algorithm coincides with @cite_8 @cite_0 @cite_24 when applied to simultaneously sparse and low-rank matrices. When the signal is further assumed to be exactly sparse of sparsity level @math , the pioneering work @cite_2 showed that @math measurements suffice; this result is extended to accommodate sub-Gaussian measurements and approximately sparse signals by our work using a much simpler approach.

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 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. Recovering structured models (e.g., sparse or group-sparse vectors, low-rank matrices) given a few linear observations have been well-studied recently. In various applications in signal processing and machine learning, the model of interest is structured in several ways, for example, a matrix that is simultaneously sparse and low rank. Often norms that promote the individual structures are known, and allow for recovery using an orderwise optimal number of measurements (e.g., @math norm for sparsity, nuclear norm for matrix rank). Hence, it is reasonable to minimize a combination of such norms. We show that, surprisingly, using multiobjective optimization with these norms can do no better, orderwise, than exploiting only one of the structures, thus revealing a fundamental limitation in sample complexity. This result suggests that to fully exploit the multiple structures, we need an entirely new convex relaxation. Further, specializing our results to the case of sparse and low-rank matrices, we show that a nonconvex formulation recovers the model from very few measurements (on the order of the degrees of freedom), whereas the convex problem combining the @math and nuclear norms requires many more measurements, illustrating a gap between the performance of the convex and nonconvex recovery problems. Our framework applies to arbitrary structure-inducing norms as well as to a wide range of measurement ensembles. This allows us to give sample complexity bounds for problems such as sparse phase retrieval and low-rank tensor completion. Compressed sensing of simultaneously sparse and rank-one matrices enables recovery of sparse signals from a few linear measurements of their bilinear form. One important question is how many measurements are needed for a stable reconstruction in the presence of measurement noise. Unlike the conventional compressed sensing for sparse vectors, where convex relaxation via the @math -norm achieves near optimal performance, for compressed sensing of sparse and rank-one matrices, recently it has been shown by that convex programmings using the nuclear norm and the mixed norm are highly suboptimal even in the noise-free scenario. We propose an alternating minimization algorithm called sparse power factorization (SPF) for compressed sensing of sparse rank-one matrices. Starting from a particular initialization, SPF achieves stable recovery and requires number of measurements within a logarithmic factor of the information-theoretic fundamental limit. For fast-decaying sparse signals, SPF starting from an initialization with low computational cost also achieves stable reconstruction with the same number of measurements. Numerical results show that SPF empirically outperforms the best known combinations of mixed norm and nuclear norm.
