Obsessional pursuit for high-impact factor

High Resolution Pursuit for Feature Extraction

Recently, adaptive approximation techniques have become popular for obtaining parsimonious representations of large classes of signals. These methods include method of frames, matching pursuit, and, most recently, basis pursuit. In this work, high resolution pursuit (HRP) is developed as an alternative to existing function approximation techniques. Existing techniques do not always efficiently ...
