摘要
Most of the existing sparse-recovery methods assume a static system: the signal is a finite-length vector for which a fixed set of measurements and sparse representation are available and an l(1) problem is solved for the reconstruction. However, the same representation and reconstruction framework is not readily applicable in a streaming system: the signal changes over time, and it is measured and reconstructed sequentially over small intervals. This is particularly desired when dividing signals into disjoint blocks and processing each block separately is infeasible or inefficient. In this paper, we discuss two streaming systems and a new homotopy algorithm for quickly solving the associated l(1) problems: 1) recovery of smooth, time-varying signals for which, instead of using block transforms, we use lapped orthogonal transforms for sparse representation and 2) recovery of sparse, time-varying signals that follows a linear dynamic model. For both systems, we iteratively process measurements over a sliding interval and solve a weighted l(1)-norm minimization problem for estimating sparse coefficients. Since we estimate overlapping portions of the signal while adding and removing measurements, instead of solving a new l(1) program as the system changes, we use available signal estimates as starting point in a homotopy formulation and update the solution in a few simple steps. We demonstrate with numerical experiments that our proposed streaming recovery framework provides better reconstruction compared to the methods that represent and reconstruct signals as independent, disjoint blocks, and that our proposed homotopy algorithm updates the solution faster than the current state-of-the-art solvers.
