We wish to recover an input vector $f in R^n$ from corrupted measurements $y = A f + e$. Here, $A$ is an $m$ by $n$ (coding) matrix and $e$ is an arbitrary and unknown vector of errors. Is it possible to recover $f$ exactly from the data $y$? We prove that under suitable conditions on the coding matrix $A$, the input $f$ is the unique solution to the $ell_1$-minimization problem ($|x|_{ell_1} := sum_i |x_i|$) $$ min_{g in R^n} y - Ag |_{ell_1} $$ provided that the support of the vector of errors is not too large, $|e|_{ell_0} := |{i : e_i
eq 0}| le
ho cdot m$ for some $
ho > 0$. In short, $f$ can be recovered exactly by solving a simple convex optimization problem (which one can recast as a linear program). In addition, numerical experiments suggest that this recovery procedure works unreasonably well; $f$ is recovered exactly even in situations where a significant fraction of the output is corrupted. | Source: | arXiv, math.MG/0502327 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
