Unlabeled Compressed Sensing from Multiple Measurement Vectors (2406.08290v1)

Abstract: This paper introduces an algorithmic solution to a broader class of unlabeled sensing problems with multiple measurement vectors (MMV). The goal is to recover an unknown structured signal matrix, $\mathbf{X}$, from its noisy linear observation matrix, $\mathbf{Y}$, whose rows are further randomly shuffled by an unknown permutation matrix $\mathbf{U}$. A new Bayes-optimal unlabeled compressed sensing (UCS) recovery algorithm is developed from the bilinear approximate message passing (Bi-VAMP) framework using non-separable and coupled priors on the rows and columns of the permutation matrix $\mathbf{U}$. In particular, standard unlabeled sensing is a special case of the proposed framework, and UCS further generalizes it by neither assuming a partially shuffled signal matrix $\mathbf{X}$ nor a small-sized permutation matrix $\mathbf{U}$. For the sake of theoretical performance prediction, we also conduct a state evolution (SE) analysis of the proposed algorithm and show its consistency with the asymptotic empirical mean-squared error (MSE). Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed UCS algorithm and its advantage over state-of-the-art baseline approaches in various applications. We also numerically examine the phase transition diagrams of UCS, thereby characterizing the detectability region as a function of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
