Optimal representation of sparse matrices
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a novel data structure used to store sparse matrices optimally – minimizing the space of the matrix representation and the time complexity of an access to the matrix element. The size of our data structure is close to the information theoretic minimum – it differs in the second order term – and permits constant access to the matrix elements and a constant amortized time with a high probability for the insertion of a new element in the matrix and a deletion of an existing element. We tested our solution in a setup of mixed model equations that is used for genetic evaluation of breeding values and estimation of dispersion parameters. The coefficient matrices are large (over 1 mio. of equations) and sparse. The new algorithm reduced the number of accesses to the data structure (at most two accesses) and reduced the time for building the equation system, especially in theworst cases.

Deblocking Joint Photographic Experts Group Compressed Images via Self-learning Sparse Representation
JPEG is one of the most widely used image compression method, but it causes annoying blocking artifacts at low bit-rates. Sparse representation is an efficient technique which can solve many inverse problems in image processing applications such as denoising and deblocking. In this paper, a post-processing method is proposed for reducing JPEG blocking effects via sparse representation. In this ...
متن کاملA New Dictionary Construction Method in Sparse Representation Techniques for Target Detection in Hyperspectral Imagery
Hyperspectral data in Remote Sensing which have been gathered with efficient spectral resolution (about 10 nanometer) contain a plethora of spectral bands (roughly 200 bands). Since precious information about the spectral features of target materials can be extracted from these data, they have been used exclusively in hyperspectral target detection. One of the problem associated with the detect...

متن کاملImage Classification via Sparse Representation and Subspace Alignment
Image representation is a crucial problem in image processing where there exist many low-level representations of image, i.e., SIFT, HOG and so on. But there is a missing link across low-level and high-level semantic representations. In fact, traditional machine learning approaches, e.g., non-negative matrix factorization, sparse representation and principle component analysis are employed to d...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Hierarchical Matrices
We give a short introduction to a method for the data-sparse approximation of matrices resulting from the discretisation of non-local operators occurring in boundary integral methods or as the inverses of partial differential operators. The result of the approximation will be the so-called hierarchical matrices (or short H-matrices). These matrices form a subset of the set of all matrices and h...
