Spectral Methods for Passive Imaging: Non-asymptotic Performance and Robustness
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the problem of passive imaging through convolutive channels. A scene is illuminated with an unknown, unstructured source, and the measured response is the convolution of this source with multiple channel responses, each of which is time-limited. Spectral methods based on the commutativity of convolution, first proposed and analyzed in the 1990s, provide an elegant mathematical framework for attacking this problem. However, these now classical methods are very sensitive to noise, especially when working from relatively small sample sizes. In this paper, we show that a linear subspace model on the coefficients of the impulse responses of the channels can make this problem well-posed. We derive non-asymptotic error bounds for the generic subspace model by analyzing the spectral gap of the cross-correlation matrix of the channels relative to the perturbation introduced by noise. Numerical results show that this modified spectral method offers significant improvements over the classical method and outperforms other competing methods for multichannel blind deconvolution.

متن کاملAsymptotic distribution of eigenvalues of the elliptic operator system
Since the theory of spectral properties of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces is an important field in mathematics, therefore, different techniques are used to study them. In this paper, two types of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces are considered and their spectral properties are investigated with two different and new techniques.

Analytical gas-permeation models for predicting the separation process across membranes (exit compositions and area requirement) constitutes an important and necessary step in understanding the overall performance of membrane modules. But, the exact (numerical) solution methods suffer from the complexity of the solution. Therefore, solutions of nonlinear ordinary differential equations th...
