Recovering Simultaneously Structured Data via Non-Convex Iteratively Reweighted Least Squares

We propose a new algorithm for the problem of recovering data that adheres to multiple, heterogeneous low-dimensional structures from linear observations. Focusing on data matrices that are simultaneously row-sparse and low-rank, we propose and …

Learning Transition Operators From Sparse Space-Time Samples

We consider the nonlinear inverse problem of learning a transition operator A from partial observations at different times, in particular from sparse observations of entries of its powers $A,A^2,...,A^T$. This Spatio-Temporal Transition Operator …

A Quotient Property for Matrices with Heavy-Tailed Entries and its Application to Noise-Blind Compressed Sensing

For a large class of random matrices $A$ with i.i.d. entries we show that the $\ell_1$-quotient property holds with probability exponentially close to $1$. In contrast to previous results, our analysis does not require concentration of the entrywise …
