Abstract

Compressed sensing is a very powerful and popular tool for sparse recovery of high dimensional signals. Random sensing matrices are often employed in compressed sensing. In this paper we introduce a new method named aggressive betting using sure independence screening for sparse noiseless signal recovery. The proposal exploits the randomness structure of random sensing matrices to greatly boost computation speed. When using sub-Gaussian sensing matrices, which include the Gaussian and Bernoulli sensing matrices as special cases, our proposal has the exact recovery property with overwhelming probability. We also consider sparse recovery with noise and explicitly reveal the impact of noise-to-signal ratio on the probability of sure screening.
