Exploiting Prior Knowledge in The Recovery of Signals from Noisy Random Projections
Javier Garcia‐Frias, Iñaki Esnaola · 2007
It has been recently shown that if a, signal can be compressed in some basis, then it can be reconstructed in such basis from, a certain number of random, projections. By allowing additional distortion, this holds even if the projections are corrupted by noise. We extend this result by showing that it is possible to exploit prior knowledge (e.g., if the signal is a realization of a stochastic process,) to significantly improve reconstruction performance. This is done in a fashion resembling standard joint source-channel coding of digital sources. Moreover, the exploitation of such knowledge allows for reconstruction in bases where the signal is not sparse
