Convex optimization in sums of Banach spaces

Michaël Unser, Shayan Aziznejad

We characterize the solution of a broad class of convex optimization problems that address the reconstruction of a function from a finite number of linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is that the solution is decomposable as a finite sum of compo ...

Characterization of Real-World Power System Signals in Non-Stationary Conditions using a Dictionary Approach

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Guglielmo Frigo, Alexandra Cameron Karpilow

As power grids transition towards low-inertia net-works based on converter-interfaced renewable energy resources, they become increasingly vulnerable to extreme dynamics. Currently, the most advanced methods for signal processing in power systems are embed ...

Concept Discovery for The Interpretation of Landscape Scenicness

Devis Tuia

In this paper, we study how to extract visual concepts to understand landscape scenicness. Using visual feature representations from a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), we learn a number of Concept Activation Vectors (CAV) aligned with semantic concepts ...

Deep Micro-Dictionary Learning and Coding Network

Yan Yan, Wei Wang, Wei Xiao

In this paper, we propose a novel Deep Micro-Dictionary Learning and Coding Network (DDLCN). DDLCN has most of the standard deep learning layers (pooling, fully, connected, input/output, etc.) but the main difference is that the fundamental convolutional l ...

Graph learning under sparsity priors

Pascal Frossard, Ntorina Thanou, Hermina Petric Maretic

Graph signals offer a very generic and natural representation for data that lives on networks or irregular structures. The actual data structure is however often unknown a priori but can sometimes be estimated from the knowledge of the application domain. ...

Binary Sparse Coding of Convolutive Mixtures for Sound Localization and Separation via Spatialization

Hervé Bourlard, Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

We propose a sparse coding approach to address the problem of source-sensor localization and speech reconstruction. This approach relies on designing a dictionary of spatialized signals by projecting the microphone array recordings into the array manifolds ...

Image Based Relighting of Cultural Artifacts

Niranjan Thanikachalam

By incorporating computational methods into the image acquisition pipeline, computational photography has opened up new avenues in the representation and visualization of real world objects in the digital world. For example, we can sample a scene under a f ...

Dictionary learning for fast classification based on soft-thresholding

Pascal Frossard, Alhussein Fawzi

Classifiers based on sparse representations have recently been shown to provide excellent results in many visual recognition and classification tasks. However, the high cost of computing sparse representations at test time is a major obstacle that limits t ...

Transformation-Invariant Dictionary Learning for Classification with 1-Sparse Representations

Pascal Frossard, Elif Vural, Ahmet Caner Yüzügüler

Sparse representations of images in well-designed dictionaries can be used for effective classification. Meanwhile, training data available in most realistic settings are likely to be exposed to geometric transformations, which poses a challenge for the de ...

Small Languages, Big Data: Multilingual Computational Tools and Techniques for the Lexicography of Endangered Languages

Martin Benjamin

The Kamusi Project, a multilingual online dictionary website, has as one of its goals to document the lexicons of en-dangered and less-resourced languages (LRLs). Kamusi.org provides a unified platform and repository for this kind of data that is both simp ...

Mathematical models and computational methods for the analysis of genome-scale protein synthesis

Julien Racle

Proteins are a ubiquitous and indispensable element for every living organism, from simple bacteria to mammals. Already in the simplest organisms, there exist some thousands of different protein species that take up a great variety of structures, and thus ...

A convex optimization framework for global tractography

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandro Daducci, Alia Lemkaddem

In this article we present a novel approach for diffusion MRI global tractography. Our formulation models the signal in each voxel as a linear combination of fiber-tract basis func- tions, which consist of a comprehensive set of plausible fiber tracts that ...

Robust joint reconstruction of misaligned images using semi-parametric dictionaries

Pierre Vandergheynst, Gilles Puy

We propose a method for signal reconstruction in semi-parametric dictionaries. The proposed algorithm estimates both the signal decomposition and the intrinsic parameters of the dictionary during the reconstruction process. Theoretical results about the co ...

Sparse Approximation Using M-Term Pursuit and Application in Image and Video Coding

Pascal Frossard, Pierre Vandergheynst, Adel Rahmoune

This paper introduces a novel algorithm for sparse approximation in redundant dictionaries called the M-term pursuit (MTP). This algorithm decomposes a signal into a linear combination of atoms that are selected in order to represent the main signal compon ...

Learning of Structured Graph Dictionaries

Pascal Frossard, Xiaowen Dong, Xue Zhang

We propose a method for learning dictionaries towards sparse approximation of signals defined on vertices of arbitrary graphs. Dictionaries are expected to describe effectively the main spatial and spectral components of the signals of interest, so that th ...

Dictionary learning in stereo imaging

Pascal Frossard, Ivana Tosic

This paper presents a new method for learning overcomplete dictionaries adapted to efficient joint representation of stereo images. We first formulate a sparse stereo image model where the multi-view correlation is described by local geometric transforms o ...

Dictionary Identification - Sparse Matrix-Factorisation via $\ell_1$-Minimisation

Karin Schnass, Rémi Gribonval

This article treats the problem of learning a dictionary providing sparse representations for a given signal class, via
