DPCM-quantized block-based compressed sensing of images using Robbins Monro approach

Compressed Sensing or Compressive Sampling is the process of signal reconstruction from the samples obtained at a rate far below the Nyquist rate. In this work, Differential Pulse Coded Modulation (DPCM) is coupled with Block Based Compressed Sensing (CS) reconstruction with Robbins Monro (RM) approach. RM is a parametric iterative CS reconstruction technique. In this work extensive simulation is done to report that RM gives better performance than the existing DPCM Block Based Smoothed Projected Landweber (SPL) reconstruction technique. The noise seen in Block SPL algorithm is not much evident in this non-parametric approach. To achieve further compression of data, Lempel-Ziv-Welch channel coding technique is proposed.
