Sharp Sufficient Conditions for Stable Recovery of Block Sparse Signals by Block Orthogonal Matching Pursuit
(1605.02894)Abstract
In this paper, we use the block orthogonal matching pursuit (BOMP) algorithm to recover block sparse signals $\x$ from measurements $\y=\A\x+\v$, where $\v$ is an $\ell2$-bounded noise vector (i.e., $|\v|2\leq \epsilon$ for some constant $\epsilon$). We investigate some sufficient conditions based on the block restricted isometry property (block-RIP) for exact (when $\v=\0$) and stable (when $\v\neq\0$) recovery of block sparse signals $\x$. First, on the one hand, we show that if $\A$ satisfies the block-RIP with $\delta{K+1}<1/\sqrt{K+1}$, then every block $K$-sparse signal $\x$ can be exactly or stably recovered by BOMP in $K$ iterations. On the other hand, we show that, for any $K\geq 1$ and $1/\sqrt{K+1}\leq \delta<1$, there exists a matrix $\A$ satisfying the block-RIP with $\delta{K+1}=\delta$ and a block $K$-sparse signal $\x$ such that BOMP may fail to recover $\x$ in $K$ iterations. Then, we study some sufficient conditions for recovering block $\alpha$-strongly-decaying $K$-sparse signals. We show that if $\A$ satisfies the block-RIP with $\delta{K+1}<\sqrt{2}/2$, then every $\alpha$-strongly-decaying block $K$-sparse signal can be exactly or stably recovered by BOMP in $K$ iterations under some conditions on $\alpha$. Our newly found sufficient condition on the block-RIP of $\A$ is less restrictive than that for $\ell1$ minimization for this special class of sparse signals. Furthermore, for any $K\geq 1$, $\alpha>1$ and $\sqrt{2}/2\leq \delta<1$, the recovery of $\x$ may fail in $K$ iterations for a sensing matrix $\A$ which satisfies the block-RIP with $\delta{K+1}=\delta$. Finally, we study some sufficient conditions for partial recovery of block sparse signals. Specifically, if $\A$ satisfies the block-RIP with $\delta{K+1}<\sqrt{2}/2$, then BOMP is guaranteed to recover some blocks of $\x$ if these blocks satisfy a sufficient condition.
