Abstract
This paper presents a novel SParse Iterative Covariance-based Estimation approach, abbreviated as SPICE, to array processing. The proposed approach is obtained by the minimization of a covariance matrix fitting criterion and is particularly useful in many-snapshot cases but can be used even in single-snapshot situations. SPICE has several unique features not shared by other sparse estimation methods: it has a simple and sound statistical foundation, it takes account of the noise in the data in a natural manner, it does not require the user to make any difficult selection of hyperparameters, and yet it has global convergence properties.

Grid-Less DOA Estimation Using Sparse Linear Arrays Based on Wasserstein Distance

TL;DR: A structured covariance estimation problem is formulated that minimizes the Bures–Wasserstein distance between the sample covariance matrix and the subsampled augmented covariance Matrix, which can be either casted to a semi-definite programming problem, or directly solved using gradient-based methods.

2D off-grid DOA estimation using joint sparsity

TL;DR: The authors attempt to address the off-grid issue for the two-dimensional (2D) DOA estimation of a uniform rectangular array by proposing a modelling for the 2D off- grid problem based on joint sparsity using the block sparsity property.

A Frequency-Domain SPICE Approach to High-Resolution Time Delay Estimation

TL;DR: A frequency-domain sparse iterative covariance-based estimation (FD-SPICE) approach for the high-resolution time delay estimation of spread spectrum signals which makes use of the Fourier transform bins of the correlation output samples to form a sample covariance matrix.

Fast Inverse-Scattering Reconstruction for Airborne High-Squint Radar Imagery Based on Doppler Centroid Compensation

TL;DR: In this article , a low-complexity inverse-scattering strategy was proposed to reduce the computational complexity of 2-D AHSR image inversion by requiring only the calculation of the inversion operator independently of the number of range cells.

Covariance Matrix Estimation With Non Uniform and Data Dependent Missing Observations

TL;DR: This work considers missing data mechanisms that can be independent of the data, or have a time varying dependency, and constructs an unbiased estimator and obtains bounds for the expected value of their estimation error in operator norm.

Regression Shrinkage and Selection via the Lasso

TL;DR: A new method for estimation in linear models called the lasso, which minimizes the residual sum of squares subject to the sum of the absolute value of the coefficients being less than a constant, is proposed.
