Orthogonal Matching Pursuit under the Restricted Isometry Property


الملخص بالإنكليزية

This paper is concerned with the performance of Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) algorithms applied to a dictionary $mathcal{D}$ in a Hilbert space $mathcal{H}$. Given an element $fin mathcal{H}$, OMP generates a sequence of approximations $f_n$, $n=1,2,dots$, each of which is a linear combination of $n$ dictionary elements chosen by a greedy criterion. It is studied whether the approximations $f_n$ are in some sense comparable to {em best $n$ term approximation} from the dictionary. One important result related to this question is a theorem of Zhang cite{TZ} in the context of sparse recovery of finite dimensional signals. This theorem shows that OMP exactly recovers $n$-sparse signal, whenever the dictionary $mathcal{D}$ satisfies a Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) of order $An$ for some constant $A$, and that the procedure is also stable in $ell^2$ under measurement noise. The main contribution of the present paper is to give a structurally simpler proof of Zhangs theorem, formulated in the general context of $n$ term approximation from a dictionary in arbitrary Hilbert spaces $mathcal{H}$. Namely, it is shown that OMP generates near best $n$ term approximations under a similar RIP condition.
