CALL FOR PAPERS
The Signal Processing with Adaptive Sparse Structured Representations
(SPARS) workshop aims to bring together people from statistics,
engineering, mathematics, and computer science, fostering the exchange
and dissemination of new ideas and results, both applied and
theoretical, on the general area of sparsity-related techniques and
computational methods, for high dimensional data analysis, signal
processing, and related applications.
Contributions (talks and demos) are solicited as one-page abstracts,
which may extend to a second page in order to include figures, tables
and references. Talks should present recent and novel research
results. We welcome abstract submissions for technological
demonstrations of the mathematical topics within our scope.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Sparse coding and representations, and dictionary learning
* Sparse and low-rank approximation algorithms
* Compressive sensing and learning
* Dimensionality reduction and feature extraction
* Sparsity in approximation theory, information theory, and statistics
* Low-complexity/low-dimensional regularization
* Statistical/Bayesian models and algorithms for sparsity
* Sparse network theory and analysis
* Sparsity and low-rank regularization
* Applications
