In quantum physics, momentum and position are an example of conjugate variables. This means they are connected by Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, which says that both quantities cannot be ...

If you haven’t come across compressive sensing, you will do soon. It’s a way of sampling and reconstructing an analogue signal at a rate far lower than standard information theory would deem possible.

We introduce a new iterative algorithm to find sparse solutions of underdetermined linear systems. The algorithm, a simple combination of the Iterative Hard Thresholding algorithm and the Compressive ...
