An inverse problem for the collapsing sum

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Gaussian filters have applications in a variety of areas in computer science, from computer vision to speech recognition. The collapsing sum is a matrix operator that was recently introduced to study Gaussian filters combinatorially. In this paper, we view the collapsing sum from a discrete tomographical perspective and examine the recoverability of its preimages as a matrix completion problem. Using bipartite graphs, we derive a necessary and sufficient condition for a partial matrix to be extended to a preimage of a given matrix.
