• Authors: Junren Chen, Jonathan Scarlett, Michael K. Ng, Zhaoqiang Liu
• Abstract summary: Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

• Abstract: In generative compressed sensing (GCS), we want to recover a signal $\mathbf{x}^* \in \mathbb{R}^n$ from $m$ measurements ($m\ll n$) using a generative prior $\mathbf{x}^*\in G(\mathbb{B}_2^k(r))$, where $G$ is typically an $L$-Lipschitz continuous generative model and $\mathbb{B}_2^k(r)$ represents the radius-$r$ $\ell_2$-ball in $\mathbb{R}^k$. Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $\mathbf{x}^*$ rather than for all $\mathbf{x}^*$ simultaneously. In this paper, we build a unified framework to derive uniform recovery guarantees for nonlinear GCS where the observation model is nonlinear and possibly discontinuous or unknown. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. Specifically, using a single realization of the sensing ensemble and generalized Lasso, {\em all} $\mathbf{x}^*\in G(\mathbb{B}_2^k(r))$ can be recovered up to an $\ell_2$-error at most $\epsilon$ using roughly $\tilde{O}({k}/{\epsilon^2})$ samples, with omitted logarithmic factors typically being dominated by $\log L$. Notably, this almost coincides with existing non-uniform guarantees up to logarithmic factors, hence the uniformity costs very little. As part of our technical contributions, we introduce the Lipschitz approximation to handle discontinuous observation models. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy. Experimental results are presented to corroborate our theory.

  Prior to our work, even for Gaussian $X$, no estimator for $beta*$ was known to be consistent in this model. We show that consistent estimation is possible with nearly linear sample size and inverse-polynomial inlier fraction. The model studied here also captures heavy-tailed noise distributions that may not even have a first moment.
