Matching pursuits algorithm (MP), as an adaptive signal representation upon overcomplete fundamental waveforms, is a powerful tool in many applications. However, MP suffers from distinguishing a doublet structure. In this paper, the authors proposed an algorithm called compete matching pursuits (CMP), which can overcome this shortcoming and performance very well.

Single-Frequency Matching Pursuits Based Time-of-Flight Measurement in Viscoacoustic Medium

Broadband ultrasound signals will produce distortion in viscoacoustic medium, which may influence the accuracy of time-of-flight (TOF) measurement. Under the condition of single-frequency acoustic source, the wave propagation process in viscoacoustic medium was analyzed and an approximate solution of the wave propagation was given. Instances of broadband ultrasound were analyzed and simulated based on the single-frequency results. A single-frequency matching pursuits (SFMP) algorithm was then introduced to solve the waveform distortion problem. Time-frequency decomposition was applied to extracting the single-frequency compositions from broadband ultrasound signals, and then these compositions were sent to the matching pursuits (MP) algorithm for calculating the TOF parameters. Compared with the broadband signals, the shapes of extracted single-frequency signals change more slightly as distance and attenuation coefficient increase. The residuals of SFMP were far less than those of MP algorithm. Experimental results show that the SFMP algorithm is able to eliminate waveform distortion of broadband ultrasound in viscoacoustic medium, which helps improve the accuracy of TOF measurement.

Coherence Based Sufficient Condition for Support Recovery Using Generalized Orthogonal Matching Pursuit

In an underdetermined system,compressive sensing can be used to recover the support vector.Greedy algorithms will recover the support vector indices in an iterative manner.Generalized Orthogonal Matching Pursuit(GOMP)is the generalized form of the Orthogonal Matching Pursuit(OMP)algorithm where a number of indices selected per iteration will be greater than or equal to 1.To recover the support vector of unknown signal‘x’from the compressed measurements,the restricted isometric property should be satisfied as a sufficient condition.Finding the restricted isometric constant is a non-deterministic polynomial-time hardness problem due to that the coherence of the sensing matrix can be used to derive the sufficient condition for support recovery.In this paper a sufficient condition based on the coherence parameter to recover the support vector indices of an unknown sparse signal‘x’using GOMP has been derived.The derived sufficient condition will recover support vectors of P-sparse signal within‘P’iterations.The recovery guarantee for GOMP is less restrictive,and applies to OMP when the number of selection elements equals one.Simulation shows the superior performance of the GOMP algorithm compared with other greedy algorithms.

The W transform and its improved methods for time-frequency analysis of seismic data

The conventional linear time-frequency analysis method cannot achieve high resolution and energy focusing in the time and frequency dimensions at the same time,especially in the low frequency region.In order to improve the resolution of the linear time-frequency analysis method in the low-frequency region,we have proposed a W transform method,in which the instantaneous frequency is introduced as a parameter into the linear transformation,and the analysis time window is constructed which matches the instantaneous frequency of the seismic data.In this paper,the W transform method is compared with the Wigner-Ville distribution(WVD),a typical nonlinear time-frequency analysis method.The WVD method that shows the energy distribution in the time-frequency domain clearly indicates the gravitational center of time and the gravitational center of frequency of a wavelet,while the time-frequency spectrum of the W transform also has a clear gravitational center of energy focusing,because the instantaneous frequency corresponding to any time position is introduced as the transformation parameter.Therefore,the W transform can be benchmarked directly by the WVD method.We summarize the development of the W transform and three improved methods in recent years,and elaborate on the evolution of the standard W transform,the chirp-modulated W transform,the fractional-order W transform,and the linear canonical W transform.Through three application examples of W transform in fluvial sand body identification and reservoir prediction,it is verified that W transform can improve the resolution and energy focusing of time-frequency spectra.

A Practical Approach for Missing Wireless Sensor Networks Data Recovery

In wireless sensor networks(WSNs),the performance of related applications is highly dependent on the quality of data collected.Unfortunately,missing data is almost inevitable in the process of data acquisition and transmission.Existing methods often rely on prior information such as low-rank characteristics or spatiotemporal correlation when recovering missing WSNs data.However,in realistic application scenarios,it is very difficult to obtain these prior information from incomplete data sets.Therefore,we aim to recover the missing WSNs data effectively while getting rid of the perplexity of prior information.By designing the corresponding measurement matrix that can capture the position of missing data and sparse representation matrix,a compressive sensing(CS)based missing data recovery model is established.Then,we design a comparison standard to select the best sparse representation basis and introduce average cross-correlation to examine the rationality of the established model.Furthermore,an improved fast matching pursuit algorithm is proposed to solve the model.Simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively recover the missing WSNs data.

Single-trial evoked brain responses modeled by multichannel matching pursuit

A multichannel matching pursuit（MMP）algorithm is proposed to decompose the one-dimensional multichannel non-stationary magnetoencephalography（MEG）signal at a single-trial level.The single-channel matching pursuit（MP）linearly decomposes the signal into a set of Gabor atoms,which are adaptively chosen from an overcomplete dictionary with good time-frequency characters.The MMP is the extension of the MP,which represents multichannel signals using linear combination of Gabor atoms with the same occurrence,frequency,phase,and time width,but varying amplitude in all channels.The results demonstrate that the MMP can optimally reconstruct the original signal and automatically remove artifact noises.Moreover,the coherence between the 3D source reconstruction and the prior knowledge of psychology further suggests that the MMP is effective in MEG single-trial processing.

An improved sparsity estimation variable step-size matching pursuit algorithm

To improve the reconstruction performance of the greedy algorithm for sparse signals, an improved greedy algorithm, called sparsity estimation variable step-size matching pursuit, is proposed. Compared with state-of-the-art greedy algorithms, the proposed algorithm incorporates the restricted isometry property and variable step-size, which is utilized for sparsity estimation and reduces the reconstruction time, respectively. Based on the sparsity estimation, the initial value including sparsity level and support set is computed at the beginning of the reconstruction, which provides preliminary sparsity information for signal reconstruction. Then, the residual and correlation are calculated according to the initial value and the support set is refined at the next iteration associated with variable step-size and backtracking. Finally, the correct support set is obtained when the halting condition is reached and the original signal is reconstructed accurately. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm improves the recovery performance and considerably outperforms the existing algorithm in terms of the running time in sparse signal reconstruction.

Ultrasonic Nondestructive Signals Processing Based on Matching Pursuit with Gabor Dictionary

The success of ultrasonic nondestructive testing technology depends not only on the generation and measurement of the desired waveform, but also on the signal processing of the measured waves. The traditional time-domain methods have been partly successful in identifying small cracks, but not so successful in estimating crack size, especially in strong backscattering noise. Sparse signal representation can provide sparse information that represents the signal time-frequency signature, which can also be used in processing ultrasonic nondestructive signals. A novel ultrasonic nondestructive signal processing algorithm based on signal sparse representation is proposed. In order to suppress noise, matching pursuit algorithm with Gabor dictionary is selected as the signal decomposition method. Precise echoes information, such as crack location and size, can be estimated by quantitative analysis with Gabor atom. To verify the performance, the proposed algorithm is applied to computer simulation signal and experimental ultrasonic signals which represent multiple backscattered echoes from a thin metal plate with artificial holes. The results show that this algorithm not only has an excellent performance even when dealing with signals in the presence of strong noise, but also is successful in estimating crack location and size. Moreover, the algorithm can be applied to data compression of ultrasonic nondestructive signal.

Noise amplitude modulation jamming signal suppression based on weighted-matching pursuit

To suppress noise amplitude modulation jamming in a single-antenna radar system, a new method based on weighted-matching pursuit （WMP） algorithm is proposed, which can achieve underdetermined blind sources separation of the jamming and the target echo from the jammed mixture in the single channel of the receiver. Firstly, the presented method utilizes a prior information about the differences between the jamming component and the radar transmitted signal to construct two signal-adapted sub-dictionaries and to determine the weights. Then the WMP algorithm is applied to remove the jamming component from the mixture. Experimental results verify the validity of the presented method. By comparison of the pulse compression performance, the simulation results shows that the presented method is superior to the method of frequency domain cancellation （FDC） when the jamming-to-signal ratio （JSR） is lower than 15 dB.

An application of matching pursuit time-frequency decomposition method using multi-wavelet dictionaries

In the time-frequency analysis of seismic signals, the matching pursuit algorithm is an effective tool for non-stationary signals, and has high time-frequency resolution and a transient structure with local self-adaption. We expand the time-frequency dictionary library with Ricker, Morlet, and mixed phase seismic wavelets, to make the method more suitable for seismic signal time-frequency decomposition. In this paper, we demonstrated the algorithm theory using synthetic seismic data, and tested the method using synthetic data with 25% noise. We compared the matching pursuit results of the time-frequency dictionaries. The results indicated that the dictionary which matched the signal characteristics better would obtain better results, and can reflect the information of seismic data effectively.

Fast M-fold matching pursuit algorithm for image approximation

A simple and effective greedy algorithm for image approximation is proposed. Based on the matching pursuit approach, it is characterized by a reduced computational complexity benefiting from two major modifications. First, it iteratively finds an approximation by selecting M atoms instead of one at a time. Second, the inner product computations are confined within only a fraction of dictionary atoms at each iteration. The modifications are implemented very efficiently due to the spatial incoherence of the dictionary. Experimental results show that compared with full search matching pursuit, the proposed algorithm achieves a speed-up gain of 14.4-36.7 times while maintaining the approximation quality.

Similarly,the sufficient condition in the case of G aussian noise is also given.

At present,the traditional channel estimation algorithms have the disadvantages of over-reliance on initial conditions and high complexity.The bacterial foraging optimization(BFO)-based algorithm has been applied in wireless communication and signal processing because of its simple operation and strong self-organization ability.But the BFO-based algorithm is easy to fall into local optimum.Therefore,this paper proposes the quantum bacterial foraging optimization(QBFO)-binary orthogonal matching pursuit(BOMP)channel estimation algorithm to the problem of local optimization.Firstly,the binary matrix is constructed according to whether atoms are selected or not.And the support set of the sparse signal is recovered according to the BOMP-based algorithm.Then,the QBFO-based algorithm is used to obtain the estimated channel matrix.The optimization function of the least squares method is taken as the fitness function.Based on the communication between the quantum bacteria and the fitness function value,chemotaxis,reproduction and dispersion operations are carried out to update the bacteria position.Simulation results showthat compared with other algorithms,the estimationmechanism based onQBFOBOMP algorithm can effectively improve the channel estimation performance of millimeter wave(mmWave)massive multiple input multiple output(MIMO)systems.Meanwhile,the analysis of the time ratio shows that the quantization of the bacteria does not significantly increase the complexity.

Research and applications of FDMP algorithm for power quality signal analysis

The accuracy of unsteady-state disturbance analysis of power quality signals is reduced by the steadystate components with high amplitudes and energies. In this paper,a novel frequency-domain matching pursuits (FDMP) algorithm is proposed to estimate the parameters of the steady-state components and separate the unsteady-state disturbances from power quality signals. Firstly,the time-frequency atoms and redundant dictionaries are constructed according to the characteristics of power quality signal spectra. Secondly,the steady-state components and unsteady-state disturbances of power quality signals are decomposed by FDMP into two mutually orthogonal subspaces in Hilbert space. Furthermore,the expressions for parameters calculation of steady-state components have been derived. The experiments show that the relative errors of frequency and amplitude estimations of steady-state components are less than 2 × 10 -4 and 5 × 10 -3 respectively,and phase estimation errors are less than 1. 6° under the existence of both interharmonics and unsteady-state disturbances. The steady-state components and unsteady-state disturbances are separated quickly and accurately.
