Multiple-measurement Bayesian compressed sensing using GSM priors for DOA estimation

Abstract

Traditional bearing estimation techniques perform Nyquist-rate sampling of the received sensor array signals and as a result they require high storage and transmission bandwidth resources. Compressed sensing (CS) theory provides a new paradigm for simultaneously sensing and compressing a signal using a small subset of random incoherent projection coefficients, enabling a potentially significant reduction in the sampling and computation costs. In this paper, we develop a Bayesian CS (BCS) approach for estimating target bearings based on multiple noisy CS measurement vectors, where each vector results by projecting the received source signal on distinct over-complete dictionaries. In addition, the prior belief that the vector of projection coefficients should be sparse is enforced by fitting directly the prior probability distribution with a Gaussian Scale Mixture (GSM) model. The experimental results show that our proposed method, when compared with norm-based constrained optimization CS algorithms, as well as with single-measurement BCS methods, improves the reconstruction performance in terms of the detection error, while resulting in an increased sparsity.

Topic detection and compressed classification in Twitter

“…In such a space when the cosine between the two vectors is close to one, it means that the vectors are pointing in the roughly same direction, in other words the two tweets represented by the vectors should share a lot of words and thus should probably speak about or refer to the same subject.

Algorithm to Balance Compression and Signal Quality Using Novel Compressive Sensing in Medical Images

“…Puy et al [11] have used spread spectrum and recommended the consideration of modulation of wide bandwidth of the signal before performing projection in compressive sensing. Tzagkarakis et al [12] have developed a Bayesian technique for computing the amount of noise to be removed from the signal. The authors have used Gaussian Scale Mixture approach.…”

Performance Analysis of Approximate Message Passing for Distributed Compressed Sensing

“…A prime example is radio frequency identification where the observed vectors are the received signals at different antennas (of the same receiver) [5]. Additionally, typical applications are magnetic resonance imaging [6], distributed networks [7], wireless communications [5], and direction of arrival estimation [8].
