METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING A SAMPLING SCHEME FOR SENSOR DATA
A device and computer-executable method is provided for adaptively determining a sampling scheme to be applied at a first sensor from among a plurality of sensors for sampling sensor data values corresponding to a signal. A sparsifying transform for a subsequent sampling time window of the first sensor is predicted, wherein the sparsifying transform is determined based on a predictive model of the sparsity of the signal. Moreover, a subsampling parameter for the subsequent sampling time window is determined. The subsampling parameter corresponds to a number of sensor data values to be acquired within the sampling time window. This subsampling parameter is determined based on the predicted sparsifying transform. Further determined is a compressive sampling scheme for the subsequent sampling time window of the first sensor. The compressive sampling scheme is determined based on the predicted sparsifying transform.
Compressively-accelerated read mapping framework for next-generation sequencing
A method of compressive read mapping. A high-resolution homology table is created for the reference genomic sequence, preferably by mapping the reference to itself. Once the homology table is created, the reads are compressed to eliminate full or partial redundancies across reads in the dataset. Preferably, compression is achieved through self-mapping of the read dataset. Next, a coarse mapping from the compressed read data to the reference is performed. Each read link generated represents a cluster of substrings from one or more reads in the dataset and stores their differences from a locus in the reference. Preferably, read links are further expanded to obtain final mapping results through traversal of the homology table, and final mapping results are reported. As compared to prior techniques, substantial speed-up gains are achieved through the compressive read mapping technique due to efficient utilization of redundancy within read sequences as well as the reference.
IMAGING SYSTEM INCLUDING DIGITAL DUAL SPEED READOUT INTEGRATED CIRCUIT (ROIC)
An imaging system includes a Read-Out Integrated Circuit (ROIC) configured to receive high spatial resolution imagery having a detected amount of energy from a detection device. The ROIC includes a mask generator and a high-resolution image decode. The mask generator applies a pixel mask to the high spatial resolution imagery so as to generate compressed high spatial resolution imagery that preserves the detected amount of energy. The high-resolution image decoder receives the compressed high spatial resolution imagery and decompresses the compressed high spatial resolution imagery and obtain the high spatial resolution imagery having a detected amount of energy.
Data processing apparatuses, methods, computer programs and computer-readable media
A first value of a first data element in a first set of data elements is obtained, the first set of data elements being based on a first time sample of a signal. A second value of a second data element in a second set of data elements is obtained, the second set of data elements being based on a second, later time sample of the signal. A measure of similarity is derived between the first value and the second value. Based on the derived measure, a quantisation parameter useable in performing quantisation on data based on the first time sample of the signal is determined. Output data is generated using the quantisation parameter.

Signal recovery via deep convolutional networks
Real-world data may not be sparse in a fixed basis, and current high-performance recovery algorithms are slow to converge, which limits compressive sensing (CS) to either non-real-time applications or scenarios where massive back-end computing is available. Presented herein are embodiments for improving CS by developing a new signal recovery framework that uses a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to learn the inverse transformation from measurement signals. When trained on a set of representative images, the network learns both a representation for the signals and an inverse map approximating a greedy or convex recovery algorithm. Implementations on real data indicate that some embodiments closely approximate the solution produced by state-of-the-art CS recovery algorithms, yet are hundreds of times faster in run time.

The terminal device then selects, based on the second information bit, a sequence from each of the activation groups as an activation sequence, and obtains a first sequence by superimposing the K activation sequences.
