Sparse disjointed recovery from noninflating measurements Academic Article uri icon

First, we analyze an iterative hard thresholding algorithm relying on a dynamic program computing sparse disjointed projections to upper-bound the order of the minimal number of measurements. Next, we show that this order cannot be reduced by any robust algorithm handling noninflating measurements. As a consequence, we conclude that there is no benefit in knowing the simultaneity of sparsity and disjointedness over knowing only one of these structures.
